Saturday Garden Art

As a designer I like to add little one of a kind details to every set and my home is full of them.  I pretty much re-purpose everything.  This was an antique mail box I inherited a few years ago from a friend.  It was on the wall in three of my apartments in three different cities.  The house I live in now has a great backyard so I decided to transform the mailbox into a planter and attach to our rustic garden shed. 
 
This was a glass container meant to be used as a vase or for candles and today I turned it into a terrarium.  I'm pretty stoked, now I just need to find a place in my room for it.
This is an old turn table that I converted into garden art with tiny succulents in recycled glass jars.  My favorite part is that it spins.
