For the month of March I’m looking for Wooden benches

If you would like to join in with the Bench photo challenge then please take a look at my Bench Series page. No complicated rules, just a bench and a camera required 🙂
- Create your own post and title it Bench Series: March
- Include a link to this page in your post so others can find it too
- Add the tag ‘bench series’ so everyone can find the benches easily in the WP Reader
- Get your post in by the end of the month, as the new bench theme comes out on the first Sunday in April
My Picks of the Week:
Pauline takes us for a stroll around Tyalgum where she found a bench or two (and how can you resist visiting a place-name like that?)
Daily Musings has a wintry river view
Klara is in a garden with an unusual bench
and Ladysighs links to a hand-restored bench by Eddy in Poland together with one of her poems
The Lucid Gypsy found a beautiful little bench in Kuala Lumpur
whilst Debbie finds a typical English wooded bench up in the Malvern Hills
and This Melbourne Life joins us this month with a bench in… Melbourne!
We’re going to find it hard to match the originality of your bench this week, Jude. How creative!
I’ve got from this week’s quick visit to Edinburgh: http://travelwithintent.com/2015/03/08/benches-princes-street-gardens-edinburgh/
What a beautiful bench, and a lot of work has gone in to making it by the looks of it. I think it beats my wooden alligator one. 🙂
Oh, I don’t know about that!
That is such a beautifully carved bench Jude. Mine is very rustic this week.
Rustic and very sad.
Terrible stain on Australia’s history
If only the aborigines had been as warmongering as the Maori tribes they may have stood a chance.
No I don’t think so Jude, spears against guns, they never stood a chance. The Tasmanian Aboriginals were maybe the most aggressive and they were wiped out very quickly. This is a very interesting article http://theconversation.com/tasmanias-black-war-a-tragic-case-of-lest-we-remember-25663
Guns. The worst thing ever invented.
Yes that and nuclear bombs. My word Jude we are having a sombre conversation today…
😦
I like the oak leaf bench a lot, but I personally think that any ‘good’ bench should have armrests. A good selection once again Jude, but I have to go with Winko’s restored blue bench, as I have followed his story from the start.
Regards as always, Pete. x
I knew you’d go for Eddy’s bench this week. It’s a real beauty isn’t it?
Got to support The Winkos really. But it is a cracker! x
And I sent a link to him, so he knows that he’s famous!
This is a nice one…gorgeous shape.
a lovely shape for a garden 🙂
Love this very individual bench! If I come across anything , I shall post, but don’t have anything at present….
Keep your eyes peeled…
That acorn bench is amazing. Beautiful and functional. I love it
🙂
Interesting bench! Here is mine :
Thank you for including me in the “picks” here is mine for this week https://dailymusing57.wordpress.com/2015/03/08/sunday-bench-series-2/
Bench. Smench. I’m going to lie down on it. It’s out of this world awesome. Love it! 😛 😛
Haha, love your enthusiasm Tess! Feel free to lie down on it – would you like a cushion for your head?
Thanks, I brought my own. Mm. The sun feels g.o.o.d. What an idea for a bench. Who can’t appreciate the artistry? ❤
