Every spring I start thinking about my yard and my garden and inevitably,
all that thinking leads to dreams of potting benches and potting sheds.
There are so many styles and ways to create a potting bench without spending a lot of money so
I really have no excuse for not having one!
This one is made out of all re-claimed materials – even an old fireplace mantel!

Yes, there are the expensive versions from big-name stores:
Pottery Barn
And more affordable hand-made versions. (You can find simple building plans on websites like Ana White.)
Southern Living
You can even use old tables or re-purpose old wood to build something full of character and charm for little or no cost.

Country Living
You can even create a beautiful space in your garage!

Some of these spaces look like they’re indoors.

Some sheds are nestled in a cottage garden full of perennials.

Some are new construction.

And some are made-over garages that are fit for living!

These photos make me want to get outside and start digging.
How fun is the garage version? Would make a very good mom hideout!
I love the idea of repurposing an old side table. How do you think those stand up against the elements?
You would swoon over my parents potting shed. It should be in BHG!
I had one at my last house that hubby built. Truthfully, I didn’t ever use it to pot things because I prefer to pot near the place where something will be placed. Just to keep from carrying the heavy pots. I loved it for decoration though.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful ideas! That garage looks more like a guest cottage…stunning!
Beautiful images. Spent the past 2 night covering my potted plants because it was freezing here in TX. Today made up for it. Can’t wait to get out there and do some planting.
Great garden inspiration! Love all the potting tables with chippy paint lol Easter greetings from Australia♥ ~Pernilla
Love all those potting benches, but I think my favorites are the Pottery Barn and Southern Living versions. I pinned the green Southern Living one because I think that would also make a great side bar for entertaining on the deck. Great photos and ideas. Thanks for sharing.
Have a lovely Easter.

They are all great, but I would love to have one of the little houses.
