Bathtime and BedTime all in one!I’ve always loved the cottage garden look. In Winter 2024 with the help of my amazing partner Steve, I removed my unused garden shed and replaced it with a vintage bathtub garden bed. This is just outside my bedroom window and it’s so delightful to look at whether I am inside or outside!

Step 1
this is my amazing partner Steve. A true handyman he came equip with his knowledge and tools to help me disassemble this unused shed.
Step 2
With my shed down my vision became easier to visualise.
Step 3
This is actually the second lot of plants I planted in the tub. The first lot didn’t survive. Gardening has been a lot of trial and error for me. But I’ve always had fun along the way. Also purchased a rain water tank which is to the side of the tub!
Hello @ztephyr
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your bathtub garden bed.
What an excellent use for an unused bathtub. I'm a big fan of recycling and giving this bath a second chance as a raised garden bed is a great idea. My best advice in regards to your tub is to make sure that water can drain out at the bottom. If water gets trapped at the bottom of the tub it can affect the roots of your plant.
Again, thank you for sharing such a wonderful project.
