Well, the weekend has come to an end and sadly, it was a rainy one!... No gardening at all, just lethargic rainy day laziness. Although, I went to see Rise of the Planet of the Apes with my sister and my boyfriend and it was awesome! I definitely rooted for Caesar and the rest of the Apes and let me tell ya, I really sympathized with those CGI primates - I winced and let out an exclamation every time they were mistreated! Hehe... :)
So, I'm doing a gardening post in the name of garden fantasizing - you know, when it's raining and you long for the sun so you can go outside and garden? Hehe.... As the title states, this post is about garden benches! I have SO many images of inspiring garden benches that I couldn't possibly bombard you with them all at once, or could I? I'm sure you wouldn't mind, but I'm saving half of the images for a Part II so you'll have some more eye candy another day. Anyway, lately I've been obsessed with the thought of a potting/gardening bench! What can I say, I reallllllly really need one! Am I the only one with oodles of un-potted plants (mostly succulents) and empty planters littering my patio? I hope not! I wish I could have it all in one place: my tools, my pots, my plants, my dirt, my rocks, etc etc! Soon... very soon! I am designing a potting bench and my boyfriend is going to build it for me (more on that one day - haha). I can say one thing for sure, my potting bench will definitely be a chaotic eclectic beautiful mess of pots and plants - that's how I like it!! In preparation for that design I have been doing a lot of inspiration research and boy have a found a boatload of it! Get ready people, so many ideas and only one potting bench to be made, whatever will I do? Hmmm.... get creative!
What about you, do you have a potting bench? Have you built your own? Are you planning one just like me? I'd love to see/hear all about it, let's brainstorm! Shoot me an e-mail at InspireBohemia@gmail.com. I hope you all enjoy these amazing potting benches...

ReplyDelete(In fact I have a couple of these in my pile.:)
Thanks for all the inspiration!!! Maybe your post will be the "boost" I have been needing to get it done.
Okay... now that I've saved a ton of these to my favs... eventually I'll have to do a potting shed Fantasy Post huh??? *winks* So many beautiful inspiring images... I have several "undone" potting sheds on my property... perhaps these visions will light a fire under me to get busy and complete one?! *LOL*

Wow - I am totally enchanged by your website. And inspired. I haven't been inspired by my own website lately - possibly too many words and not enough pictures. I think I shall have to honor you by emulation. I've just posted your latest doors, garden gates and now this post to my FB. Thank you for all the lovelies! Oh, and I subscribed. Don't want to miss anything ever again!
ReplyDeleteLoved it. I am a garden Freak and really enjoyed these ideas for potting benches. I am finally getting mine built after many years of yearning. My Mom just finished remodeling her kitchen and I snached up a portion of her cupboards and with an old farm sink my husband found it is coming together.
ReplyDeleteThanks to your insperations I have some other ideas I can add to it.
