FSO - Lawn Tools

You can think again if you're thinking I'd post photos of my lawn tools.  If anything goes anywhere near the lawn, I'm bound to run it over with the lawnmower.  But if I had one like this I'd be moving a bit slower.  On second thoughts, no, I'll leave that in the shop.  Looks a bit like hard work to me.


Shame I don't have any use for a blower.  I think that's what this is.  It's not very heavy and I have visions of the fun I could have weilding this and chasing the grandkids.


A new rake?  Nah, I don't have much use for one of those either.  Shame, I really like that shade of green.


I do have one of these.  10 litre capacity and not a knapsack model.  I am seriously tempted by this. 
 

I really do need a new pair of gardening gloves.  But, honestly, don't you think these are a bit too pretty?  It would be a shame to get them into the state of my gloves.

 

I'm sure the rest of the FSO team will have been a lot more imaginative than I was with this topic.  Just pop over here to check them out.

    I don't mow - gave it up long ago. This creates problems when no one else mows. The grass is all matted down by the rain now, in any case, so I'll not worry about it.
    I'd like one of those backpack models too!

    I live in a high rise apartment and would love seeing the workers cutting grassy patch around here. I love the smell of freshly cut grass!

    I am very impressed by your post. Most of us -- myself, anyway -- mostly presented snapshots. You took the time to find the creative beauty in each of your tools. In addition to giving us lawn tools, you also gave us fine photographs.

    Photographing garden tools, yes why not. You have made them better looking, fantastic photos.

    I never mowed a lawn in my life, being allergic to grass (and having lived all my adult life in town flats without gardens of my own). A few balcony boxes are enough challenge for me.

    The Art of Lawn Tools!!! You have elevated Lawn Tools to a new Artistic Level. Super photos! I imagine everyone will want one of those red and green eco-friendly push mowers! Great shootout, Pauline.
