yay the potting bench is finished


I have to admit to posting pictures on my phone and then writing when I have time on the computer as I cannot find another way to load up pictures quickly - any hints gratefully received.

Well I finished sticking the potting bench together this morning. It is not perfect. Everything had to come apart again yesterday when my daughter noticed I had made a mistake with the legs and I have also stuck the front rail on upside down but by the time I noticed that mistake it was too firmly stuck to risk taking down again. The lower shelves are not perfect but hey ho it is my first construction - I would not say this where my talent lies - time will tell.
I did not attach the tool rail or the vice tool it comes with as I want it to be more of a potting garden bench than a tool bench for a workshop.

All that said I am very pleased with it and would recomend these little kits which are from Jan Harrup and you can see more of her kits  here
I have one more to do but I will fill you in on that at a later date.

In the picture the plants and hose came from ebay with the shed.
The empty pots and spade , hoe and rake came from The Dolls House company here
I bought a few items which I have already shared with you - the postage from this company was really quick and they were very well packed. Currently I have started to paint the kitchen sink which will go in the house I have now confessed about having.
