John the Planter
April 29th, 2008 . by ErinI was running the other day with my friend Ashton, when we came across an interesting sight. There it stood gleaming in the bright Utah sun with its brilliant porcelain. A toilet.
I was over come with anticipation as to what I could turn this fine looking object into. I thought a moment… then it came to me! A planter! Why not? I live in college housing where there’s not exactly a ‘home feel’ to it. What better than to turn this neglected object into something that could make me as well as others happy!
So, I grabbed one end and my friend Ashton took the other and we hauled that toilet up two flights of stairs. I only hope that the liquid that kept spilling out of it was…. well, just water
Well John the planter, I salute you!

I love it! I sure hope that stupid Hampstead desn’t make you get rid of it. That would really suck.
Why is it I’m eating whenever I read this!
Love the flowers…and the planter!
This is WONDERFUL-I want a toilet by my front door! You come from a looooooong line of green thumbs, but I have to applaud your ingenuity in “recycling” this conversation topic.
