Junk Lawn Art

Post by Sir Henry » Tue May 12, 2020 10:20 pm

I collect junk lawn art and place it among shrubs and flowers.

This fence was made of old beds. It is hard to see but I have hanging flower baskets and plants in front of the fence. Most of the flowers are still small and you can’t see them yet. In another month the flowers will be hanging down.

This area needs to fill in more.

A view looking back at the side of the house.

More hanging baskets are over the four left wheel barrels. I need to plant more flowers in front of the barrels but that will have to wait for next year. I still have winter storm debris to get rid of before I can plant.

Gotta admit it looks pretty cool.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Sir Henry,

That looks great! However it also looks like a lot of work. :shock: Good for you to put the effort into your yard art project and I’m sure you will get to sit back and enjoy it with a beverage in hand! :D

Thanks for sharing.

It is a lot of work. In the last four years I have moved 80 ton of half man rock. I’m beginning to wonder if a 70 year old man should have started this project.

I like it but couldn't do that in my neighborhood. The HOA would have a fit! I really like the bed posts and wheel barrows.

Our HOA here doesn’t allow it either but everyone ignores them. Complain about my lawn art and I’ll make you get rid of your RV.

Those wheel barrows look fun to shoot.
