African Violets and Gesneriads: My Christmas present!, 1 by RainGazer

So, you may have noticed that I haven't been around as much the past few days (at least Allison noticed!). Here's where I've been...one of my Christmas presents from my husband is a potting bench that he planned, designed, and built. I've been helping, watching, and oohing and aahing over it for the past several days. Here are pictures of it. (To make it AV related, I'll be repotting some of them here! LOL)

This is a shot of the whole thing. My husband plumbed it so that we will connect a water hose from the spigot around front to the right side of the bench. A pipe goes up to the top of the right side where I have a hand held watering hose. The pipe goes through the underside cabinet to the left side where I have a spigot to connect another water hose, and there is a hose hanger for that water hose. He also put a plant hanger on the left side and a thermometer. He bought me two copper baskets for "stuff" and an angel to watch over me, hanging in the middle. The doors each have a lock on the latch so I can keep my systemic drench and other poisons locked up so I don't have to worry about children or animals getting into them.
