I guess yes, if you have such a small space and not much gardening you wouldn't need one, but I do alot when I'm out there and its still not enough....so anything I can do NOT bending and squatting is more that can be done. While I was going through all the pots and plants in that area I was bending and in pain washing the pots and again, I thought...."if only I had....." and then the lights went on and I realized...."oh my god, I do have one...what am I doing bending"??? too many years working like that, lol....it will take getting used to not being tortured and remembering I have a helper, the new bench. I'm already using it outside and am finding more uses for it too....such a lovely thing in my world!<br />Yes, the housemate, is more work than I care for, but its good when its over, its over. :D<br />The aqua is soooo much fun.....<br />thanks for visiting.<br />ladyLady of the Woodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394158858295264012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819053185794399303.post-55013487428003750332013-01-06T20:02:39.452-05:002013-01-06T20:02:39.452-05:00Thanks Sandy, yes more white is being made now.

I begin the kitchen Wednesday, waiting on the housemate to do it in one day.

(honestly I didn´t even know such things existed, but I´m not a "green-fingers" at all; my partner always says that my plants should have a voice like dogs and cats and children, so they could CRY for water when they needed and I would pay more attention before they die... LOL LOL LOL) However, I find you did a great job -with the housemate´s help- and agree completely with you, having the appropriate tools is essential to these kind of projects... I love how it looks in that corner of the garden, specially with all the beautiful details added (the little chandy is VERY YOU!!!). Sent you an email last night, and I´m already looking forward to receive your answer ;)<br />Hugs and blessings,<br />K.Kassandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16454916842349863922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819053185794399303.post-57053429222926661102013-01-06T07:25:29.244-05:002013-01-06T07:25:29.244-05:00My dear,

FANTASTIC! AND I LOVE the idea of salvaged wood. WHY NOT? It is already there! It has a worn quality that has stood time and has proven strong and beautiful. CHEERS my dear...you now have your potting bench that will give you hours of joy. I can't wait now for spring!!! HAPPY DANCE!

So funny how you described your housemate and how he was determined to work with the tools he had, until you convinced him otherwise. I can just imagine what my hubs would do if I asked him to make me one. He is definitely handy around the house but is not a builder at all! Perhaps I will have one someday, our yard is so small I don't have a need for one now. Enjoy your potting bench and your pretty gardening clothes.
