This was my first dumpster diving experience, and it was only at my neighbors house. lol
He rented one of those dumpsters to clean out his side yard and shed. I saw him put 2 iron gates into the dumpster and ran over to see them. Wow, what a find. I asked him if I could have them, so he took them back out and put them in my garage. I told him he would be sorry that he was throwing them out, after he sees what I was going to do with them. I sanded all the rust off and sprayed Rustoleum on them. I then walked all over the garden looking for the best place to put them. My DH and I rested them together for a moment and realized that they looked good at that angle...so I attached them together with hose clamps and BAMB...I now have a new trellis for my garden.
This is the before picture and look at the after on the other posting.
It cost me a total of $8.00 for paint and clamps.
