junk collector at heart. I have a four year old little gypsy who loves to go dumpster hopping!! no dumpster, garage sale, flea market or auction is safe from us. i love to remake anything. I love anything old, metal, rusted, chipped, torn, or frayed. Mama taught me that just becase something is free doesn't make it worthless!!! The junk party never ends at our house!!!

Re: Garden Frame Hanging

I think you are so creative. Another bed out of the landfill!! You could even hang it in the kitchen for a pot rack. Just add a few cup hooks or old fishing hooks and your set. Thanks for the inspiration!!
