I've searched online but didn't find anything.
But across from a coffee house where I like to
go (Bean Around the World at Main & 28th, for
fellow Vancouverites,) there's this nifty
garden gate. The pickets are made of various
old long-handled gardening tools -- forks,
dutch hoes, etc. They're aligned vertically
like normal pickets, alternately right-side-up
and upside down. I rather like the effect and
the statement.
cheers,
Tom
