 Bonica roses picked and placed in two wishing well buckets. Only Two Bonica bush rose plants produced all these flowers. Used a Bunnings table saw.

 Beware of cats, they like wishing wells. Here the thick part of the pallet is used. I found a way of removing the bits that are left over. Just hit them with a hammer, then remove the nails.

Re: Wishing wells

I thought since this is made from pallets that rot, to cost it out using fence pailings.

 just remembered two horizontal struts, $3 each, so $6, makes it $126.  The paint also, purchased two of four litre containers, Noosa  views and white.
