A cast iron skillet can make a great container for succulents like hens and chicks that can thrive in a shallow object.

Tool boxes can be used for herb gardening. Use herbs like thyme, sage, and basil.

Vintage Glider.
Great for porching and relaxing. This is the perfect option for entertaining because it seats multiple people comfortably.

A fun and colorful way to provide seating. Easy to sand and repaint for any color scheme.
