In the summer gardening is unfortunately not enough, but with these clever helpers you have all the garden tools quickly at hand!
What you need for the stool basil silo:
- Barstool (eg from CAR Möbel, price 59 €)
- Acrylic paint in blue matt (hardware store)
- Swivel castor (4 pcs. Hardware store, price 2 € per pc.)
- water-repellent fabric (eg from Karstadt)
- Satin ribbon in blue (eg from Depot, price 2.99 €)
- Malunterlage

- Cordless Screwdriver
- ruler

- matching yarn
And that's how easy it is:
1. Paint the stool with the acrylic varnish and let it dry well.
2. Attach the castors to all four corners of the seat.
3. Measure once for the cloth bags a rectangle of 60 x 30 cm and a rectangle of 40 x 20 cm and draw with tailor's chalk on the fabric.
4. Cut out the rectangles with 1 cm seam allowance.
5. Fold and sew each rectangle right to right. The opening line.
6. Fold the bottom corners of each bag into a triangle like a milk carton and sew. This creates a nice pouch shape.
7. Turn the bag. Cut the satin ribbon, take it twice and sew it to the back of the bag.
8. Finally, hang the finished pouches with the satin ribbon on the stool.
