I know I haven't been sharing much of the current works in progress from here lately, so I thought to myself, ...."Most of these new gardening friends haven't seen some of your pictures past David!.......Go a head and send some older ones at least to keep the ball rolling!"...........HaHaHaHaHa!
You are correct. David is,,,,,,,,what is the word we would use,,,,,,,,,,"Eccentric!"
I like making these flower bowls in Spring. They make great Easter and Mothers Day gifts, and are usually more interesting than lowe's and the other mass produced ones other such store produce. I buy inexpensive 'Dollar Tree' type pots and brush them with a little paint to give them more character and look a tad less cheap.
I wore the boots at the bottom of the pond for 2 years before I drybrushed white paint over them to make them look like concrete and planted Zinnias in them. The Zinnias did great through the seasons and then the boots were tossed of course.
