Hey everyone,
DH and I were talking the other day about him building me a potting bench and I thought it may be a good idea to talk to some folks who use one regularly...so where better to ask than the Container Gardening Forum?? Well, I hope so anyway! :-)

I have a potting shed, that's shared with every outdoor tool and pot and the tiller and the snowblower and the lawnmower and the...well, you get the idea. I love my shed, but I'd also like to be OUT in the garden.

Last spring I think I planted 52 containers, so I'd be using my bench a lot. Anyone have any pics of theirs and could you tell me what you do and don't like about it? What you wish were different? DH can build pretty much anything from just a pic, so he can make me whatever I'd like...I just need to know what I want!

I'm really excited about this. I'm not sure when he'd be building it, but hopefully so I'd get to use it when I pot things up in May. Oh, sheesh, that's next month already, isn't it? LOL!

Thanks everyone!
Heather
