Trash to Treasure - Watering Can Planter

I love free stuff.  

Like, LOVE free stuff.

So when I found this by the dumpster of our apartment, I *might* have ran outside in my PJs to scoop it up...


Rusty?  Yep.  Warped?  Uh huh.  Potential?  Yes yes yes!

I grabbed a can of this stuff from Lowe's...

...and went to town.

2-3 coats and a begonia plant later, I got this beauty!

I placed her on the back patio...perfect!


Have you transformed anything lately?

I am always amazed at the "trash" people throw out. I would have done the same thing as you in my pj's. It looks great! I guess its like they say, "one man's trash is another {wo}man's treasure"!

I found you from the Creation Corner link up party.
