Well, the tree finally found itself into our front garden – the Mighty Mugwood tree. This work of art was the idea of my husband when he brought home two crates of metal mugs. He came up with the idea of a big tree. I was so enthusiastic with my hubby’s interest in the garden that I was immediately supportive and said the big old lavender can now move. Well, the rest you can see for yourself in the photo sequence. I love the new look and it wasn’t long when the neighbourhood came to see the Mugwood Tree. We’ve had a few visitors driving by to take pictures! We hope you enjoy it with us xxx

What fun. I’m a lover of whimsy and this beats everything I’ve seen so far!!
I absolutely love this idea. Now what sort of tree could I make?… Inspiring!
Love this tree, what a fun idea. I really like that you put in the front yard for everyone to enjoy.
That is just too cool! I love it.
Wowser!! Very, very cool, love it!
Oh what fun and it turned out really well!! awesome you two, love it 🙂 🙂 🙂
On another note, how stunning is your lawn looking?? All lush and green! Lovely! And the grass garden … You told me nothing was happening, but the photo shows it all filling out and looking GORGEOUS!! We want a photo update post of the grass garden (the dry riverbed one)!!!
PS: I like Diana’s suggestion of The Mugwood Tree being a tree to welcome old friends!
PPSS: The photos of the Mugwood Tree are terrific too! love the night shot. You need to teach me how to do night shots, I can’t get it right for toffee!
Your mug tree really is different and I bet it gets loads of people stopping for photos. It may end up in your local newspaper too.
Now that is much more fun than a bottle tree. Bottle tree is supposed to scare off evil spirits. The mugwood? Welcomes old friends?
