These drawers were left over from one of the potting benches we made. So, I decided to make a raised planter out of them. We added the side shelves as well as the bottom shelf from our salvaged rough cut  wood inventory. It's a distressed, aqua green finish. The original metal  hardware that came off the drawers were reused.

I was just going to put wheels on the bottom of it and maybe a top for a stool or something. I can also see your creation here with some additions to be a potting station.

We did not put a liner in it however it would be easy enough to staple some heavy duty Visqueen. The plants in the photo individually potted.

NinaSC- It was a custom color that I made from left over paint.
