Garden Junk: Recycling With a Touch of Whimsy

Friday August 29, 2008
In some areas of life, you're safe using the expression, "everything but the kitchen sink," without the risk of having some literalist come along and take you up on the implied challenge. Not so in landscaping. "About Gardening Forum member, Magpie, threw down the gauntlet with these photos of what she called her 'Garden Junk'," relates Marie Iannotti. "She hoped other members would show their personal garden design style with photos of the decorations in their own gardens." Although Magpie's "garden junk" collection may merit monikers of a more positive connotation ("recycling," "whimsy"), she does literally include the kitchen sink in her garden design!
