Sprinkler Garden Art

by Rebecca Sweet

 

Okay, okay – by now most of you who have been reading my blog for any time now probably feel like they’ve personally strolled through Freeland and Sabrina Tanner’s garden and have seen everything I could possibly show them, right?

WRONG!

Freeland is an amazing powerhouse of creativity and has just finished building two incredible sculptures made from his collection of antique sprinklers, a few hoses and some rebar.  They’re  the perfect additions to their potager, adding a bit of humor and personality to an already fascinating garden.

Does this man’s brain ever sleep?

My favorite is the heart – what’s yours?

Love the heart and the wings and the “formal” placement on either side of the steps.

Love them! What a clever idea. I never knew that vintage sprinklers were so cool. Just did a search on ebay and saw a vintage cat sprinkler listed at $325.00!
