At the moment, I dont really, but it'll get there! The neighbours were all full of comments because its made from my old kitchen wall units!!
But I LOVE the plants! Most of them were gifts from David!

As Goy would say to the neighbours ...
"Thank you for your comments" Lol.
Nice of David to give you the lovely plants. :o)

LMAO!!
Yes, I try to laugh it off with, "I'm recycling, have you heard of it?"
They think I'm a mad hippy anyway, so I just have fun with it! They asked if I was having a party when the prayer flags went up!!!!!!!!
Ooops! Yes, he's SO kind! Turned up with his car laden!

Always Suey! There is very little furniture (apart from my bed) in my home that isnt either second (or 3rd or 4th) hand & I can usually find a use for all sorts of "rubbish"!

Found them !!! My goodness he certainly did you proud with this lot !

He did indeed! Go have a look at my blog "My brilliant day", I've listed them all on it! He even bought me a giant Himalayan Lily!

As 'some GoYers would say.....Stuff the neighbours!
You go girl and don't, in your scottish madness, open one of them cupboard doors to get the coffee else you'll have a messy patio!!
Initiative, that's all it is....oh, and saving the planet!!

There arent any doors there! The doors are still sitting in my living room!!
Exactly Dan!
I've jusy been informed that the green willow I brought home from my walk is too tall for my garden! "You wont be able to see out"!!
My reply? And you wont be able to see in! Its not tall enough or thick enough!!

Did you not see how they took cupboard and shelving and turned them up right and put pipe along it irrigation pipe and had plants hanging from them, they done it to a town up the walls of big business buildings and shelves on balgonies, they looked great, even going up wall growing the plants to hide the grafiti I like your idea

You should of watched the program, I m sure it was called living cities, it was in the uk where they filmed it , it was like a documentry where they had placed all the plants over all the very tall buildings,climbing up the walls outside, then they went to a chaps house and he had a boxed shelf, with segments in it and placed the irragation system through it, then put the plants into the boxed shelf looked wonderful.
26 Aug, 2009
