How to start? Just look around and you will find old objects that can be given new life as a unique addition to the garden. You do not have to buy anything if you rethink the functions of some things stored in the attic or in the garage. The appearance of your garden is limited only by your imagination.
The old painted little table acquires a new life as a multi-level flower bed. Open drawers hold the landing and draw attention to the baskets with flowers hanging on the wall. Saturated shades like blue make you feel cool.
Vintage lidded tin cans act as original grass planting containers. The combination of various foliage with the size of the jar creates a unique, visually interesting design. One container looks charming, but a group of several turns into a unique object. Place them outside the kitchen, but with quick access to collect herbs.
Most of us have the opportunity to enjoy the garden only in the evening after work. By adding lighting, you turn it into a real sanctuary. Put the candles inside the glass jars and hang them on the ropes.
An old painted birdhouse performs a double function. On the one hand, it serves as a refuge for feathered guests, and on the other hand, it supports a basket of multi-colored petunias.
One girl from Ontario creates inspirational unusual objects from the most unexpected things. The most creative are its chandeliers. Having attached decorative crystals for lamps, homemade trinkets and blue beads to an old metal colander, she created an unusual chandelier.
Painted old cushion box turns into a cozy sitting area on the porch overlooking the garden.
The secret to creating an unusual garden is to use everything that you have on hand. The old staircase at the fence can serve as a multi-level hanger for plants in hanging pots. Birdcages and colander can be filled with flowers and hung on the branches of a tree. Dig bottles upside down along the path to create a border. Old wicker baskets and trash cans will serve as containers for seedlings.
Rubber boots of different colors, hanging on the fence, act as flower pots.
Old chair and bike get a second life, seated with flowers. In fact, everything that has a bottom and walls, easily adapts to planting. Take note that you can use large mugs, kettles or a wheelbarrow.
Homemade wind chimes from old dishes and colored beads make pleasant soothing sounds as the wind blows.
A vintage chandelier cover can be turned into a lightning flashlight, which is unique and practical at the same time: it protects the flame from the wind, and the patterned glass refracts more light.
