Spring is my favorite time of the year!!! I have been busy planting annuals this weekend and thought I would show you a project from a couple of years ago. This old wagon was a freebie at a yard sale and made the perfect planter. I drilled holes in the bottom for drainage, lined it with screen and then filled it with one of my favorite anuuals--bacopa.
I spend the entire year scouring flea markets, garage sales and thrift stores for fun containers that can be repurposed as plant containers.
Happy day!

I am a new follower!!!
I had an amazing time visiting your blog!!!
One question...how do you get the letters on the silver platters or for the silver platter clock is that a transfer of the eiffel tower??? Can you give me a lil more detail on these two projects? I have so many silver platter I'm ready to do some of these beautiful projects!!! I'm loving your blog, can't get enough of it :)
I love that idea !! How precious and sweet ~
Oh I love it! It's adorable! Wish I was better with plants, I do, however, have the junk ready to go!

Hi Janis, I hope you have fun in the garden with the project. And Thank You for stopping by today. Have a great day in the garden......Julian
Hi Janis, your wagon looks so cute! I have my original Radio Flyer wagon from when I was a little girl (that would be over fifty years ago!)... I just can't bring myself to plant in it, but I DO set pots of plants in it... I also love Bacopa, one of my favorites! xoxo Julie Marie
OH I have to agree with everyone, love it too! That wagon is just great and you are so clever to turn it into a planter!

Love your little red wagon. I've planted different things in a wheel barrel and can't seem to get them to take off. I thought maybe it was too much iron in the soil from the metal but your flowers look great! I should try annuals.

Hello Again, dear friend.
We found an old red wagon in our dumpster and rescued it. It is missing a wheel. My question is - should I replace the wheel and should I paint the whole thing white before I turn it into a little garden for succulents.
Thanks for any ideas.
