Ohhhhhh I love clay chimney liners! Years ago my sis had a bunch of different cactus and succulents in them. GREAT LOOK!

My partner just started building "prototypes" of various sized pedestals out of scrap 4"x4". Later today I'll try to go take a photo. Due to our Cedar trees we do a LOT of container gardening. I had made the comment I'd like to "level up" in a few places and he surprised me by puttering on some column type things from scrap wood.

Also...if we have to cut down anything... the stump stays. Just one more place for a bird house OR pot...lol

Here's one example. Every thing blooming in this photo is in a pot......but the bird house is on a short stump from a shrub we had to cut down. It blocked the view from the driveway when backing out. So.....I saved the stump. Just another opportunity to change the height of something.
