Yeah, they are to replace some 6 year old Jack Daniels Whiskey barrels.
We'll see how well they hold up. I bought them BTW. ;~)

Yep, I'm familiar with those planters. They eventually decay. Taking a cue from those barrels (giving a try at barrel and bucket making), long ago I made this planter bucket/home decor, adding an accent rope handle: https://www.flickr.com/photos/438361...in/photostream

With our near 80° weather, I'm getting the spring-planting fever, also.. Monday, I mowed some of Mom's grass and thought about overhauling one flower bed and tilling the garden. I just don't have the all-day energy to multitask, that way, any more. The spring-time to-do list is growing. Jonas' son came over to help mow, as well.... about 3 acres to mow. I washed his car, while he mowed.
