YOU DID IT AND YOU DID IT VERY WELL!

That is a great idea and a super way to "go green". All your plants look wonderful too.

Wow!! Great save!! Pots that large are very expensive, even the foam ones!! Nice way to fill in that corner!! Jan

Linda,
I'll just say that you really scored BIG time with that OLD BBQ! I was looking at the egg grills at a BBQ place just down the street. They are in the range of $800! Besides that they are VERY heavy. It is made out of some ceramic! You did really well seperating them and planting them up with the succulants! Thank for letting us see them.

Love, Jules

I love what you did with the old bbq. I love to plant in unusual containers as well.

They look just great! Love the green you chose for the planter color! Great job!

They look like expensive ceramic pots so I'd say you did exceptionally well! Love the green corner!

Turned out just great! Nice grouping. ~tenderlee

sewandsew...this is a wonderful save! Luv the planters & your flowers are gorgeous! Is this in your back yard? Hows's the fence comin? TFS! Jeanne S.

Thanks for the nice comments. These old bbqs make great pots. The largest red pot in this photo is the same bbq bottom. I passed up a $15 yellow one a few years back because I didn't feel like hauling it to my car. DUH!!

Jeanne, this is in the front yard at the end of the house. I recently picked up over 800 keystone pavers at a yard sale for $100. We moved all the crap, oops, meant wonderful finds out of that corner and put some down on sand. The gate was removed from the other end of the house to get the pool removed. It's just standing there looking pretty.

The wood fence isn't moving fast enough. I finally figured out that if we sand, paint and install the 2x4s onto the chain link, there would actually be a place to hang them when done, instead of moving them from here to there, and back again, lol. A lot of them are ready to hang, some are primed and ready for paint. And I thought that it would be finished in a few months. On it goes!!! Linda

Oh I love your bbq planters and I love the succulents in them too!!! Great job! I have never seen a bbq like that before!

that is super Linda. Plants are doing well I see. Glad you are getting a lot done....not me...but school will start this week and DD will be home in Oct so I will get a short relief. Then I am headed to my moms. She is getting sick and getting dementia and I am the only one with a DH. So off I go. Not that I mind my TX but will be hard work and not any breaks for a while.

huh.. look at that. how clever are you? I'm going to be rethinking the free weber grills on craigslist now. lol

Oh, won't my husband be pleased. muahahahahahaaa

Great find, wonderful paint job.
