love the recycling job well done!! hope it all holds up in that windy area. Love it all :O)

Thank Terra...
Oliveoil we are hopeing the net and the heavy chains will help to slow the wind effect down. Fingers crossed

Well done Sandra..love the shelf with the paperweights,and the wall art..but most of all ,I love your little dog,who looks as though he/she is wondering what the heck you are doing ! Lol.It will be great when the foliage gets going :o)

Wow Sandra, you are so ingenious - that's got be one of a kind! My favourite thing is the little pig - what is his snout made of? It will be interesting to see how much of a windbreak the netting proves to be - please do report later when its been tested by a Pembrokeshire autumn?

You're always so busy Sandra.......it makes me tired just looking at everything in your garden!
Some great ideas and features!

Bloomer don't be fooled by that cute face...Blodwyn is hunting the cats..she never catches them..and it will be interesting to see if ANY foliage comes...most climbers don't like our sea breeze.

Stera the little pig has a steel curled around it to form its shape and snout with a big silver ball as its body and marbles for eyes. It was a lovely present some years back and now its joined the no more dusting gang!

Thanks Paul but it's mostly OH that does the donkey work and I come in at the end with the pretty bits..:-)

Well he's just great - oink!
Forgot to admire the fan with the fern in front too.

Absolutely fabulous. I love recycling, but in a small way.
Never thought before about climbers who would stand the sea breeze ? Can only think of Ivy in a planter base.
It has very thick stems.
If the items do get dusty, a packet of 'Mucky Pup' wipes (50p from Wilkinsons) - one would clean dust off in 10 minutes. Put the dirty ones in a poly bag, and into the wheelie bin ! I buy them 10 packets at a time and use around my flat daily. Easier when one is disabled.

Carry on recycling Sandra, and inspire us all to do the same.

Ingenious recycling and so original. Great

Such innovation Sandra, clever :)

I think it looks great, I love re-cycled bits around the garden but OH is not so keen, so I have to sneak a few in till he gets used to them - then add a few more!
I can't believe that throwing together all the odd paint came up with that wonderful colour - how come mine always turns out mud coloured?
Chains are great - I have a really, really, large link, heavy one, now all I need it a building/wall/tree strong enough to support it, so I can weave a plant around and through it - sort of arty like!

thanks....we have sorted out some temporary seating from scaffold planks and patio slabs. It will do for now. Had a BBQ there on the weekend....love it when a plan works..

Its certainly different Sandra but from what I've watched all of you create over the years I just know its going to work for you, I really like all the arty added bits, you have the knack of making all your recycled collectibles fit, I hope you do find some greenery that will grow for you but if not I know something else will no doubt appear in the future....I love it..

Thanks Lincs..I am soo looking forward to it greening over....the honeysuckle and jasmine look very happy at the moment and i have high hopes for the clematis...friends and family have been arriving with all sorts of junk to hang. busy at the moment bringing all my babies in for winter but looking forward to adding treasures to the frame.
