♥ Lucky Me
Can you believe my luck?
My neighbor was going to throw this away!
I told her I'd take it and put it in my garden.

Oh, the neighbor and the "undergardener" have a lot to learn! You scored!
Congratulations, Becky. I also would take the bench.

Gday Becky.
just catching up after my week away.
such a lovely bench just needs a little T.L.C.and Im sure will look right at home in your garden also love your colourfull garden journal. Take care.
Hey give me that! You did indeed adopt a treasure..what fun you'll have giving it a permanet home!
Gorgeous, I like old things and your neighbor has no idea
Oh Becky, lucky girl! Congratulations to your new bench! By the way, it is your garden where the photo was taken? Uuuuhhh it's huge, isn't it? I already had that impression on former pics you showed us here.
I had my husband stop at persons house this summer they had old benches out in front to be thrown away so I could get them to put in my garden.
The journal pages are so cute!! Love them. Your garden has really flourished from all the preparation you've done. Have you read about lasagna gardening? Layering of organic materials and I've read about using paper/cardboard too.
That is NOT junk!! Wow! Lucky you.
And I think the journal looks much better after you added to it. I'm one of those who goes by the adage More is Better!
Being tossed away? Junk? Well, here's one heart that skipped a beat when I saw that FABULOUS, INCREDIBLE, LUCKY YOU bench! Wowza...
Hi Becky ~ Nice to meet you and thanks for your comments and also your sympathy. You sure were lucky to get your neighbor's cast-off and
I am sure it will look great in your garden. Take care, Cheers, Merle.
You’re as bad or good as me! They told me to burn this old seat from the big house last winter so I brought it home and did it up, now I’m worried that if they see it they will want it back because it’s now a good seat. I see you have a nice Eucalyptus there behind you, how old it is? What is the green bush right at the back, looks like it has yellow flowers?

That is one fine cane bench - wish I had a neighbour like that!
This is a fabulous garden bench and no junk at all, tell that to your under gardner lol Lucky you! Congrats! xox
Wow what a find! Way to go!
Wow, look at the background of this picture. You live somewhere so absolutely gorgeous. I envy you so much.
As for the treasure, sure happy for you that your neighbor has lousy taste. LOL What a great treasure for your garden. Fun Fun
Great find Becky.Its amazing what people will throw away.I like you guarding it, in the photo.
Oh, lucky you. Someones rubbish is someones treasure! Do you already know the place for it? Hope I could find something like that!
UKBob . . . the Eucalyptus was planted just this summer. I love the shape of the leaves.
The yellow behind me are Calendula flowers. They grow like hot-cakes.
Anita, You asked about my garden and ugh yes, you are right it is huge.
I have about 1 acre of cleared land and just let most of it go to wild flowers.
My serenity garden is just a smaller area that i keep "weed free."
Great find! - sometimes I can't believe what people throw out! Must be the New England conservative in me.
Becky, I revel in finding things that I can "remix" into my garden. My favorite things are those I find, free of charge! Gnomes are notoriously frugal! "-)
Yeh, I have an UNDER GARDNER like that too....WHAT A FIND. I am looking forward to seeing it in the garden and see what you did with it. Love it.
Junk? No, no! Fabulous treasure is what it is. Lucky you!
Lucky you.
I am officially jealous...
I'm looking forward to seeing where you plant this ... or did I already miss noticing it in one of your fabulous photos?
