You don’t have to spend a lot of money or time creating a striking focal point in your garden. Designer Nancy Ondra leaves this yellow watering can on a post in her garden, where it’s both convenient when she needs it and an eye-catcher when it’s idle. It’s a simple but effective ornament that does double duty.
To see more of Nancy Ondra’s Pennsylvania garden, pick up the September/October issue of Fine Gardening, on newsstands in early August. In it, she’ll show you how to make your garden spectacular in autumn.

Yes.....I like this idea a lot! Nice to see such a practical
and relatively inexpensive article put to work this way. Also
I like the idea of these old "tools" of the past being taken
care of instead of being cast aside or allowed to deteriorate.
Good going Nancy....we can get along fine.
