Free Garden Planters – Tips and Tricks #garden #gardening
This video shows the tips and tricks on how to save money and build a beautiful garden planter for FREE made from dryer drums from the local scrap yard. Harvest your imagination.
So obvious and we're so used to running to Walmart and the plant store and everywhere else to get everything we need and not really making an effort to make the best of what we have really available. It probably would not hurt to become a little more aware and make use of our resources a little bit more wisely cuz I have a feeling they might not be quite as available
Reminds me of my Grandpa Thomas, cleaning up 2 old oil drums and using one to burn trash (he & Grandma lived out in the country part of Houston Tx & didn’t have trash pickup) and the second one to BBQ in ❤ – thank you for the tips!!
👀AGREED, I see what you see. I have one that I planted up 32 years ago☺️ I've bought many barrels, huge ceramic pots and built planters and the washing machine planter has weathered 32 heavy winters in snow country and still looks and functions as good as new.
This post is appreciated and such a good reminder ! Thank you☺️

I prefer the older washers and dryers cause my clothes actually get clean
My kind of planter! Any ideas for a defunct refrigerator? 😊
I dig that! Being able to look at something and see what it could be, not just what it is.
Oh yeah and you’ve grown my favourite veg in it .
The stainless steel ones make great fire pits.

A water heater cut in half can make 2 planters

❤ AND IF YOU WANT TO GET FANCY YOU COULD PAINT A PATTERN ON IT LIKE MAYBE SOME FLOWERS OR SOMETHING ELSE❤
Aren’t you concerned about chemicals leaking into your plants from the metal and paint? Btw, I do enjoy your videos 😊
O yes
Yes! ❤❤❤

You'll be proud of me. I reused an old fabric shower curtain and dingie fitted sheet as shade/frost covers over my pvc hoops.
Booyah! 💡😊

Thinking outside of the box!👍
You're a very smart person!
