Chair Planter

This chair was part of the dining set we used as I was growing up (a true antique).

I took the seat off and created a "planter" of sorts with chicken wire.

Add a coco mat filler which will contain the soil.

Closer look at the coco mat.

Planted pansies and coleous.

And here she is in profile. Love the way she turned out.

And here she is two weeks later.

 The "babies" below are cucumber, squash, lettuce and marigolds (to keep the bugs away).

So far the lettuce is winning the race.

And this is next week's project - stay tuned.
