An idea for fencing...
Pallets turned into art...
Tires turned planters...
Tin cans turned into garden lights...
And finally ... bike wheel trellis.I'm going to have a very busy summer!
My lil dreamland of whatever...
I just got my sunflower seeds in the mail and here's the ones I'm planting this season!
