Great Garden Ideas: What's Old Is New Again

Add interest to your garden with ideas that repurpose old things and make them new again.

Where to start? Just take a look around to see what you can find that may have a second life as a unique garden addition. You may not even need to buy anything if you rethink some objects that are in your attic or garage. The only limitation to your garden transformation is your imagination!

An old painted dresser gets a new life as a multilevel planter, while adding a sense of fun. Open drawers hold plantings and bring the eye upward to hanging wall baskets. A bold color, such as blue, adds a cool, contemporary feeling. (Photo: Fiona Lea/GAP Photos)

Vintage food cans with the lids removed make interesting herb planters. The variety of the foliage, as well as the designs on the cans, adds visual interest. A single container is charming, but several grouped together create a strong focal point. Place the containers outside your kitchen for an easy-to-reach herb garden.

Most of us have more opportunity to enjoy our gardens while home in the evening. By adding lights, you can transform a garden into a sanctuary. Here, tea lights inside old mason jars are hung by string (or wire). (Photo: Lynne Keddie/GAP Photos

Old painted birdhouses provide a refuge for your garden's feathered visitors but also do double duty as a support for a hanging basket of colorful petunias. (Photo: Kim Beckmann)

Melissa Will from Ontario creates inspirational garden art using repurposed objects. Her favorite garden art projects are her chandeliers. Using lamp crystals that she found at a thrift store, Will fashioned some homemade bling for her garden by attaching the crystals and blue glass beads to an old metal colander. She keeps the chandeliers in the garden year-round to watch the winter sunlight sparker through the crystals. (Photo courtesy Melissa Will)

This Week's Recipe:

Repurpose Your Leftovers!

Zucchini Bread French Toast with Basil Maple Syrup

Total Time: Prep: Inactive: Cook:

20 min 5 min 5 min 10 min

Yield: 6 pieces

Level: Easy

Ingredients

Basil Maple Syrup:

2 cups maple syrup

1/2 cup fresh basil leaves

French Toast:

1 1/2 cups heavy cream

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

6 eggs

1 loaf zucchini bread, cut into 6 slices

4 tablespoons butter

Confectioners' sugar, for serving

Directions

For the basil maple syrup:

In a saucepan, bring the maple syrup and basil leaves to a simmer. Set aside to steep for 5 minutes, and then strain out the basil leaves.

For the French toast:

Whisk together the cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract and eggs in a bowl and pour into a shallow baking dish. Add the zucchini bread slices and allow to sit for 30 seconds on each side.

Heat the butter in a large pan or griddle until it begins to froth. Add the zucchini bread slices and cook until browned and caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Divide the French toast among plates and top with confectioners' sugar. Serve with the warm basil maple syrup.

The masses of color, the promise of new varieties and beautiful garden art are so exciting. I know that there is a tremendous amount of work and planning that go into creating and maintaining such a top notch greenhouse. Thank you all. I know I will see you many times this season.
