Yesterday a friend of mine gave me an old brass bed complete with headboard, footboard and side rails. It is solid and weighs a ton. I am going to put it out in my garden and grow a "flower bed."




So excited for spring to come! I am even going to grow some vining flowers up over the headboard!

Oh wow, what a wonderful idea. That is beautiful! Best of luck with it and I hope you post some pics when your garden starts to bloom.

I love it! Only if it were in my yard, the neighbors' cats would be sleeping in it!

I have an old bed frame that I wanted to do this with. Just haven't got there yet. I can't wait to see yours.

I am enjoying this thread. Here's a picture I took at a friend's house. The "Bed" bed is beginning to fill in nicely.
