Bring a boat to your backyard..., a dinghy or a dory, and use it as a nursery (and as a Chicken coop!) like this one by Joe Polaischer...
... create a feast of flowers, photographed by Annie @ Fire Fly Hill Designs on her vacation in Ireland...
... or if you're really ambitious, overturn a boat and build a boat shed.
Then..., take your boat right upfront for some unusual curb appeal... 
... or set it up as a one of a kind boat bench.
And what about turning a boat into an outdoor tub. Should be doable, right!

Love it love it love it
I always thought I would love to turn one of these in to a child's bed.
These pix are gorgeous!!
I love the first one, but all are so creative and whimsical!!
hmmm bathtub or boatshed for me
love the boat attatched to the gold colored home...that is inspired! and the hot tub idea
is great too!
Ha! What fun ideas! I loved seeing each one.
Very creative and beautiful transformation of boats. My best is the blue and white.
Too cool! Who would think a boat could metamorphoses in so many ways. I'm not sure about that spelling, but it sounded good at the time. Thanks for sharing. Mumzie ;)
Oh Maya! I can't decide which one I like the best. They are all so special. I love the blue one that looks like a bench that you could sit in outside of your house, but I also like the blue dinghy for the backyard. I would look out in my backyard and probably find all (7) grandkids in it stomping my flowers to pieces. That would be my luck. Honey another beautiful post. Thanks for sharing your many talents.

you have no idea how badly I need a boat for my backyard!!! I threatened my husband that if he didn't use his speedboat a lot...I would fill it with dirt and have a $31 000.00 planter!!! lol these are wonderful!
I am bookmarking this as inspiration for my future beach house :)
I love the ocean so this really makes me want to go on vacation! Thanks for sharing!
These are increadable!!! Love the boat shed & the tub!!
Just when I though Boats were for sailing only.... :) Lovely pics and great ideas!
Thanks for sharing!

What wonderful ideas! I was going to build some shelving on my fence in the Fall to hold a collection of pots, but you've given a great idea. I do believe I could probably find some of these that are no longer water-worthy in my area. Hmmmm…… once again you've sparked my creativity! I have to remember to think outside the box, or the boat in this case.
A cool take on the literal "flower bed"..I have seen old barbecues and toilets turned into planters, but this is natural looking and coastal rustic. Love it.
Love the idea of a hot tub boat!!
Thanks for sharing with us!
Happy OW!!
I can almost hear the seagulls in the background.
VERY fun post on OW -- thanks!
