    I posted some photos the other day and realized how bad this container was looking (still). I've had a plan, just hadn't done it.

    So, today I finally tried making it less ugly.

    Almost everything in the garden is a work in progress and this one has progressed to a really nice looking planter. But, if you change your mind like I do after a few weeks/months, it just might morph into a totally different look by next Spring.

    Well that's a big improvement!! :D I've got a few 'uglies' in the garden that I really should do something about. Now that I've seen your planter I might just go out and see how to improve some of mine.

    Very nice. I need to improve or replace most of my containers, this may be an idea for one.
