RE: [DIY] Salvaging good wood from the trash and more

 

As can the shredded paper from your home paper shredder, mixed with kitchen waste, leaves and grass, makes great compost.

It is amazing how wasteful society has become. We

are expected to toss out anything that breaks, or we

no longer desire. Fortunately, there are many who

agree with you Bill, and take other folks trash to turn

to treasures.

 

At the end of this year's growing season, I'd recommend

you clean the frames very carefully and coat them well

with a dark green enamel paint. Match the color to the

rest of our garden items.  It will prolong the life of the

frame exposed to the weather, and deter the neighbors

from recognizing the original purpose. The dark green

enamel is also more attractive than the raw metal. Your

significant others complaints may be mostly aesthetics.

 

Those hulls left behind by the bird feeders could be going

into the compost bin......
