Sundials are classic garden ornaments, but they’re more than just decorative items — they’re useful and educational, too. Building your own garden sundial is a fun family project for a summer weekend, and it’s a great way for kids to learn firsthand how the position of the sun changes from hour to hour and season to season.

Make molded concrete planters.
Remember the concrete block raised garden from earlier? Here is another similar idea, only this time, you are starting from scratch! That’s right, no concrete blocks, just concrete. This is an immensely cool and creative project where you create concrete planters from scratch using plastic containers as molds. The finished results look just awesome! I actually love the fact that they’re a little rough around the edges. They look almost like something you’d find at an archaeological dig a thousand years in the future.
