Tired of crouching on the ground to pot up plants? Want to organize those seed trays, containers and garden tools? You need a potting bench!

I use my potting table every day during the spring and summer. It's great to have a designated spot where it's ok to get dirt everywhere! When I'm done, I just brush off the mess into a bin to save for next time.

You don't have to spend a fortune or have a ton of tools to make one! Many of the projects in this list can be built from upcycled furniture or pallets.

Let's get started!

Great ideas and so many of them are repurposing items, so it's right up my alley. I think I will be stealing a few of these design ideas. Thanks for sharing on the link up!
