EXTREME Recycling

My holey rolls project is working fairly well but need to stabilize them more.  This is on the screened porch...The Dreaming Porch.  The old warming oven is from my childhood "playhouse" in the glade.
I continue to work on my new water garden.  I have "created" a visual rustic block enclosing under the screened porch by adding old tin and tiny scraps of board with one old vent cover along the top.  The weather has slowed my progress a little.
The next project while in the planning stage is to visually block the under side of the porch...instant dog lounge.  Cool, shaded, dirt to dig and I don't have to see it.
With a few tools, some boards good for nothing else and some time...
One more little piddly project done with nothing but recycled wood.
"Waste not, want not."
Wondering what insane project I will do next?
Me, too!

Sometimes I Do Strange Things....

Just for the hell of it!  This is my new yard side table.  A throwaway Freon tank painted with a top is now a handy place to sit my glass. Acrylic paint with a spray sealer makes it weather proof.
I know, I know...rotten wood.  I just could not throw it away so screwed it together attached a flag sewn from an old pair of swim trunks and called it art.  It is the perfect size for store bought lawn flags but why do I need store bought when I can create my own??

This also serves a second purpose.  It blocks the outside sun from a west window and makes that room much cooler.  I'm insanely brilliant!

I realize many suspected I was strange but now you have proof.
May your day be wonderful and creative.
