Totem by Wolf Vostell
Located at the Vostell Museum in Malpartida de Cáceres, Spain, Wolf’s symbolic totem pole combines the holy powers of technology and transportation (and birds, apparently… definitely the triumvirate).

The beginnings of a school bus conversion into a mobile garden!
I’m a sucker for mobile gardens. And creative reuses for cars and buses.
An old Volkswagen bus-turned-planter, at the Dallas Arboretum — a fine addition to the old-cars-used-in-gardens group.

Brilliant! And a great addition to the “beverage carton-repurposing” idea file.
Spotted on Facebook, on the Grow Food, Not Lawns community gardening page here. (If you’re aware of the original source, please tell us — I wasn’t able to track it down.)
Other garden-related ideas can be found in earlier Unconsumption posts here and here.

Have a piece of PVC pipe that’s old and/or leaking?
Repurpose it into a planter. Cut it open, punch holes into the bottom (for drainage), and cap the ends.
The plastic pipe material is lightweight and durable.
What else would you do with scrap pipe pieces?
