This is an wooden chair that's seen its last days, so I decided to make a planter out of it by boxing in the seat part of the chair with some scrap wood then filled it with soil and plants.
Use an old recycled chair from the junk to make into a planter for flowers to set in the garden. Get an old chair to use.
While on a thrift store trip, I came upon this lovely metal chair that has the most awesome scroll work and curves! This powder room chair would make a great outdoor accessory for my garden. I love bringing the indoors out.
Many household objects can be used as containers in the garden. I love to use old chairs in the garden to add height and interest to an area that might be otherwise plain without it.
Once these old chairs have the seats go bad on them, unless you can refurbish them, they're usually pretty worthless. I found a great way to salvage them as well as come up with new planters.
I love the look of chairs transformed into lovely garden pieces. My favorite type of chair is metal. They are so easy to transform, by removing the seat or just using the full chair.
I grabbed this chair from a neighbor's loose trash and decided to "recycle" it to make a chair planter.
I have found that the kind of chairs with the seat missing are ideal for this. They are usually found that way in bentwood chairs because the seat is round.
I occasionally see discarded chairs with perfectly good backs still intact.
From junk shop chair to garden feature! First you need an old dining chair with a push out seat as this is where the flowers will be growing.
