I tried doing this before, but the neighbors didn't like it and stole it during the night. Guess I shouldn't have had it in the front yard. Rolling Eyes Pretty flowers BTW!!!

Sharon, I have always wanted a 'throne' in my yard. Laughing But living in a mobile home park, they would veto it! Laughing If my home were on my land, you can betcha' I would have one. And probably an old tub and old ringer washer as well. Really like yours! Lovely flowers in it. Give the 'queen' a wave! Laughing Laughing

Nice throne! Very Happy But I think I would have been mad if the Queen actually sat on it.

I love it!! I wouldn't complain if you set it up next door to me. Very Happy I think it makes a very attractive planter.

Ooh nice. Wink
My family - even though they do not garden- would definitely have me committed if I dared what you did.

What a nice idea, CB. That turned-out nicely. I reckon that you are pleased as punch, eh?
Well done, you!

hehehe. When I was a girl living with mum and dad, dad was a milkman so out on his rounds very early in the morning. He would pass many skips full of rubish and would often come home with things for me to use as planters. In mums garden she still has a bath and a loo. There used to be a urinal and a butler sink also. I know have 2 butler sinks in my garden.

That's beautiful! I could have done that instead of just leaving it at the back and caused accident on my 6 yr old son.

Be careful if you have active sons they might stand on it like my little boy did. The scar it left on my sons leg gives me shiver everytime i see one like that. Smile
