Better than Smith and Hawkens?




I hope everyone had a great 4th of July weekend. Ours was relatively low key so my husband found some time to make me a potting bench. We have talked about doing one forever but finally we got it done.

I told him what I wanted and he built it from scratch w/o a plan, as he always does. I think it turned out pretty well. I think I'll keep it natural for now but who knows.......I could change my mind again. LOL

I have that same saying posted over a door in my kitchen! I hand printed it so I am just about ready to prim it and have it done "professionally!"

Oh boy do I have a place for that potting bench!
Tell your hubby that he did a great job. I love the details on it.
Looking forward to returning to your blog.

My wife loves the potting bench ... she wants me to build one for her. The construction looks pretty straightforward, but I'm wondering if you can provide the dimensions your hubby used. Thanks so much!
