What an awesome idea!!!! Would work well in a large or small garden. I like the idea that you leave them in the garden … and love that they are so pretty … a practical piece of art!!! :-)

Awesome indeed and so very unusual. Far too lovely for weeds. Oh, i just love them! Congratulations!

Love your weed pails Eklectic.Very nice.Looks like a lot more fun than pushing the old wheel barrow around like I do. (lol)

I still need the wheel barrow but only when they are full!

But I thought this project was done!!!
And I just decided that I needed something “neat and different” to sit them on!!!!

So, I think, I am going to build a base made of concrete and shape them like…or have tendrils…or..
So here I go!

Will let you know what will happen!!

Isn’t it amazing how one thing always leads to another and another and never ends. (lol) Guess that is what really keeps us going.

So true Ekectic.It’s raining out right now so here I am online again (lol) The heck with housework this is far more intereting and educational thanks to GT friends.

Gonna adapt this idea for my little bitty lot. Will save me the effort of going along picking up all the weeds i threw onto the lawn ( or sidewalk, or driveway) when I weeded the beds.

Dini,
that is exactly why I did it!

Bon,
Same here, so I am baking as we are “learning” and visiting!
Only problem: to many good ideas and not enough time!

Wish I had a little of the artistic flare. Again, your pails are simply beautiful and unusual.

Closest thing to pails that I could think up would be new paint pails …. lol. Not nearly as

attractive even with a spray can of paint. Oh, they are so beautiful …..and one of a kind!

Blozand And GranT
Thank you for all the nice words!

Great idea to hang them from a Shepard’s Hook … gives some variety throughout the garden with them. Looking good “E”!!! :-)

I like the idea of the weed pail. I have a large pot (with drainage) for deadheading etc. It sits on my driveway behind my oleander, complete with a pair of scissors, ready for anyone who wants to do my work. Alas, it is usually only me, but the lady who is looking after my garden when I am away will hopefully find a use for it. :)

Same here, but it sure sure would be something else if one of the dogs would start helping!:-D

You’ll just have to start training them. ;) Now that would be a challenge !
