My husband and I spent some time cleaning up and organizing our little garden shed today, and after I had a nice clean potting stand I was inspired to use it. So I did a little gardening craft project today. I had some hens and chickens that were in the wrong spot (my husband's wood splitting area) and so I decided I would make a little table arrangement out of them for our outdoor dining table. I supplemented with a few purchased succulents, then I headed to the antique store to find a good vessel. I found this little gem, and the price was right ($12.50). It's an antique dish pan, and the tag read "many good years of service left". So cute!
I dug up the hens and chickens I wanted moved and brought them into my garden shed.
Then I added some sand to the potting soil. I had no expert opinion to do so, I just thought that maybe succulents might appreciate it.
After the plants settle in a bit, I will have a lovely centerpiece for the patio table. I love working in my new garden shed!
