I love unusual,
repurposed
planters...
and have seen some wonderful
dressers turned into planters...
I had been wanting one to call my own...
when I found this beauty
:-)
for free...
I lined her drawers
with heavy duty garbage bags...
this will keep her glued joints
from breaking down...
and keep me from watering so much...
I nailed a couple drawers closed,
extra crooked...
for extra character...
planted her
and waited for her to fill in a bit...
she was looking pretty today...
so I thought
it was time to share...
the small spaces
in the cracked open drawers...
are perfect for tucking little frilly plants,
that are easily lost in a bigger pot...
having a tabletop for my rusty urns
is also fun....
Happy Planting :-)
Today I am joining...
and
Thanks for stopping by today...

Hi Bella!
Your drawers are beautiful! Love the colour and it brings such beauty to unusual places.
I planted my old drawer with blooms early this week and I love it too! (come over for a visit) :)
Don't you just love container gardening? You can get so creative with it!
Have a great weekend Bella!

How creative! I love how you kept some of the drawers nailed shut so the ones with plants stood out more. Congrats on this amazingly thrifty and beautiful find!
that looks so pretty. I'll be on the look out for an old dresser or nitestand for my porch to plant in. thanks for the inspiration.
I love it. So soft and pretty, I think I need one. It is on my list for sure.
I love this idea! It looks so pretty.
This is darling Bella!

Oh my goodness--I hope it is ok to pin this because I just love it! This is a project I would like to do for sure. Thanks for sharing!
This is just the cutest idea. I love the white dresser and the flower color choices.
This looks darling! Like a sprouting potting shelf. Price is right too! Nice to see you having fun in the garden. Our roses seem to be done for awhile. :{
Hi Bella
Only you could make something old and unwanted a beautiful piece for the garden. I really like the look and the urns are perfect on top.

Breath taking beauty... and a great idea...have a lovely evening with love Janice...
What pretty blooms you have in the drawers! It is really cute with the skewed drawers and you're photo editing is really sweet with the faded edges. Come by and visit at Quirky Vistas sometime.

That is one of the cutest things I have ever seen. I love it. I junk picked an antique stove and am going to place it out back with pots of flowers on it. The dresser idea is just darling...now I wish I had junk picked a dresser- xo Diana
Hi Bella,
Lovely dresser with the plants in it and love the price more! I love finding wood furniture that has been disgarded...only problem, there is only so much room for them!
Hola Bella, how lovely, absolutely!!! I´m also thinking to make one sometime, a great idea!!!
hugs dear
Awesome project! Looks very beautiful! And those rusty urns and the birdie absolutely belong on the top.
Absolutely adorable! If I had a garden spot, I would definitely try this because I come across junk drawers that I can't repair! Great idea!
Bella: That turned out really beautifully. What fun to choose poor throw aways and make a thing of beauty. So dainty and sweet..Happy Friday..Judy
What a great idea!
Really beautiful :)

I too have always loved dressers planted with flowers. Yours is beautiful.
Love this idea! You did a great job of deciding which flowers would go in it and the urns really set it off!~Patti
