Repurposed Vintage Garden Signs

It's garden time in our area! Finally! 

Truth be told I'm not great with plants but I have been known to grow a nice flower garden. 

Today I'm turning a great road-side find into signs for my garden. 

I love using rusty tubs and found junk items in my garden and today's project is no different...

These vintage red wagon signs were a great find! 

I knew just what I was going to do with the smaller sides!

I love using old, repurposed things in my garden, we call it junk gardening. 

Today I'm going to add these red wagon sides to my garden as flower signs!

After all they are kid durable. 

I began with a great stencil, Old Sign Stencil's Fresh Cut Flowers stencil. 

As you can see I've used these stencils many times. 

I'm using Fusion Mineral Paint in Coal Black, I know it stands the test of time on outdoor projects. 

Now all I needed to do was to stick them in the galvanized and rusty tubs I have on the side of our deck. 

At the time of this post it was early spring so I just planted these flowers, they are already growing fuller and more beautiful as the weather gets warmer.

I love the look of the old tubs!

Or a repurposed enamelware pail for an herb garden?!

Those pansies are even planted in a cinder block!  

This was such an easy project and if you don't happen to have old wagon sides you can stencil signs on wood and stick them in your plants. 

Here are a few more photos of the early junk garden spaces around my yard...

Those adorable mushrooms were made from repurposed vintage bakeware. 

Find the DIY for the American flag garden stake.

And here is the updated wheelbarrow progress...

Things are coming along! 

I use what I have so I can spend the money on the beautiful plants and flowers. 

This sailboat weather vane was another road-side find I turned into a solar light.

These adorable repurposed vintage tin mushrooms were another easy project for the garden. 

Here is a sign I made several years ago with the Locally Grown Herb stencil. 

Are you wondering what I did with the longer sides of the wagon?

I put them in the garden by the shed for a pop of color!
