It's a Potting Bench. I knew he was going to his dad's ALOT lately, but i thought he was just helping him out. But no, he was building me this beautiful Potting Bench. I'm so lucky to have such a talented, sweet Husband.
OT: Just look what my husband made for me !
Here is the top, It has the middle slated part so i can water plants, and not make a mess!! ...well as soon as we buy the dish pan to catch the water!!
Your husband does beautiful work!!! My husband passion in life is working with wood,gonna have to show him!! Very nice!!
Dianne
Thanks Dianne, This was a first for him. I think he did a great job! We have the pattern if u need it!!
Jaimee
Lucky girl! I guess your DH will be in your good graces for quite a while. It's a beauty!
Susan

Sandy
You have a keeper in that DH Jaimee! What a nice bench and a lovely setting! Your plants looks so healthy and happy. AND, everything is so neat and orderly! Round of applause for you!
I'm just worried now What the heck am i going to do with all these in the winter!! Now all DH needs to do is make me a greenhouse!!
Here is the rest of the porch:
It is a blessing to have a wonderful husband:-). Very nice plant stand.
Blessings,
Awanda
Wow, what beautiful quality work!
I agree w/Awanda...what a blessing to have such a thoughtful (and talented!) DH!!
He's probably already planning your greenhouse, lol!
Lucky you...congrats!
Great bench!!! and great porch! You are missing some of the more tropical elements like Hawaiian newspapers on the table and plant books piled all around...like mine!!!LOL
Carol
Aren't you a lucky lady to have a thoughtful and talented hubby like you have! I love your Potting Bench. He did a wonderful job! I wonder how many of us are going to be showing our hubbies this thread...lol.
I'm going to get in trouble with all your husbands arnt i??? Hahahhaha
Mel- As for neat and orderly, I had to clean it up to fit the bench out there, Maybe it will stay that way??? Ha-probally not. I thought it would make room for more Hoyas, but it looks like I'm just going to have to expand under the porch. Were thinking about putting up plexiglass sides under the porch and making that a sunroom, but we have to figure out how to keep it heated. Got to keep those babies warm!
Carol- As for the papers and books, there there too, just under the coffee table...so there not in the photos. Also, there is normally 2 yellow labs and 2 chihuahuas basking in the sun out there. They just love it too!
Oh by the way, that was a photo after we built the new porch, Under it is where i want the sunroom at.
To the right there is a long built in planter just wanting to be planted full! It's full sun, so i know when the time comes to fill it up, we have to be careful of what we pick!
Congratulations on getting that beautiful & well crafted potting bench Jaimee. Your DH is a keeper, treat him well. When I first saw the first photo of your porch, my first thought was to suggest you convert it to a sunroom. You've done a great job on your house, it looks really nice.
