Left to Rest and Rust

April Six Word Photo Story Challenge: “Rust”

Frozen in place — retired, not expired.

I adore when “stuff” is repurposed and turned into pots for gardens. I’ve seen:

• Wheelbarrows
• Gumboots (and regular boots)
• Bicycles with carrier baskets
• Bathtubs
• Tyre rims

I think boots are my favourite repurposed pot — a good boot gains a lot of character when it’s giving life to a plant. What about you — what’s your favourite repurposed plant pot?

This month, we want you to dig deep and share your best photos and stories about ‘rust’ — the kind that tells a tale, creaks with character, or looks like it’s auditioning for a role in an apocalyptic romance novel.

Check out this month’s challenge below!
