I made this fun project

I found this chair on the street.

Inspired by Facebook video of Laura Ebanks from Design for Serinity, I start cutting, glueing, and painting. And here is the result.

The secculants on the front should hang down and in a back I plant one that likes to climb.
The pot I found on a street too. In total this project cost me maybe $10.

Wow! How cool! It's amazing how junk like that broken chair can be turned into something so beautiful! :) love how it looks with the succulents

Thank you for the kind words. This was very fun project.
The chair had all the parts. I just glued them together after cutting the hole for the pot.

Oh! I see now -- the seat was sitting on the bottom cross pieces making the spindles lower where I thought they were broken. Duh!

Very nice indeed! (I wish you could come over and help me repair my garden bench :> ...another back burner project I keep putting aside :oops: )
