How to Build a Garden Tote
A garden tote with a screened bottom
is the perfect carrier for the garden...
 |
I created a box using reclaimed wood from a broken table.
I love using old discarded pieces giving them new life as a new project.
On the bottom of the box I stapled a wire mesh gutter guard
bought for pennies at a garage sale, this lets all the dirt from the tools go straight through.
I added a handle to the box then painted it with a mixture red and green paint that created a beautiful brown.
When the box was dry I hand painted the word GARDEN
onto the side of the tote then distressed the words with sandpaper.
A hook on the inside of the handle holds a ball of string and
two metal IKEA pails are added to hold garden tools and supplies.
This tote is perfect for gardeners.
Dirt from tools or fresh picked flowers and vegetables will just fall through the screened bottom of the tote leaving the mess outside.
I'm looking forward to a garden full of flowers
and vegetables this year!
