Vintage Inspiration Friday #42: Potting Bench Inspiration

Earlier in the week I mentioned that I've been working

on putting together a potting bench.

I've had a lot of great inspiration photos to pour over like these first 3 images,

found in the premier issue of Flea Market Gardens Magazine 

which is on sale now.

love this cute chalkboard paint idea for the herb pots

So many fun ideas for gardens using flea market pieces,

 plus potting benches, sheds, and outdoor spaces and dining.

I think I found mine at Barnes and Noble back in April.

(a new issue is due June 27)

here's more...

And this is one of my favorite images from Carolyn Westbrook Home

love this green bench!

last 3, Google Images

Below, is a sneak peek photo of my own potting bench.

I've been having a lot of fun with it.

I've made good progress with mine but I wanted to wait and share it later,

as Friday, (tomorrow) I'll be having a day in the hospital for some heart tests.

So, I may be a little late on making visits and comments.

 I didn't want to cancel Vintage Inspiration Friday,

because there were so many great links from last week that I wanted to share.

So, just keep a good thought for me and say a prayer,

and I'll be back by the end of the weekend.

BTW, if I'm ever "missing in action" go to the sidebar

 and click on Anne's button,

She'll know where I am.

You all are the best with coming up with fun vintage ideas.

here are just a few from last week...
