Ever happened to you that, you have a bike which is not good to use, but you don't want to throw it away. If the answer is yes, you should read this instructable. :)

Find a Bike...

For the first you need a bike to paint. Unfortunatelly I forgot to make a photo about the bike before, but I think you can imagine a terrible looking bicycle. If it is ready you need to get some more "ingredients"

  • paint & brush
  • basket (optional)
  • flower and dirt (optional)
  • ribbon (optional)

Paint the Bike

You have to paint your bike. We weren't the most maximalist, but if you want you can take apart your bike while you're painting it. If not you can paint like us, without taking it apart. ;) You can paint some pattern on the bike. We painted some dots on the mudguard.

We made the handle from straw and painted it white. You could give your decoration a basket which we use as a flower pot. You have to fix the basket to the bicycle handle and you can knot a ribbon there to hide the fixing. And after that your bike is ready to decorate your garden! :)
