old cast iron sink...

Flowers in an old cast iron sink...

Monica's brother gave me this sink.

.......He's a plumber.

Every once and while they'll come across these cute old case iron sinks. They pull them out of house/bath remodels.

Monica and I think they are little jewels!

.....we LOVE them!

It's HEAVY!

Milton sit it on my sewing machine stand...

.....it worked perfect.

It has it's own 'drain' hole...

GREAT for flower growing!

Hey that's a great idea. And it is recycling old stuff for new purpose.

Tina,
I want one!!!! How cute is that and a new use for those machine bases---meant to be!!! So glad it wasn't a toilet. You DON'T have one do you???
Glad you are back posting again and hope you had a wonderful time at Canton. Soooooo hot tho! I so much enjoyed Kathy's house, saw so new ideas for me-loved the old tubs as tables.
Have a great day.

Tina I have the sink I grew up with in my
backyard with flowers in it. I never thought
of putting it on my machine base. Thanks for
the idea. I also have a white enamel drinking fountain that my Daddy had hooked
up in his backyard and I have flowers in it
too. I love unusual item to grow flowers in.
Hope you didn't get too hot in Canton and I
hope you had fun and didn't work to hard....rest now.":O)
