What Can I Do With an Old Wheelbarrow?
I’ve inherited two wheelbarrows. One ended up with the bottom rusting out (yes, it was rusty when I got it, but I didn’t know it was THAT rusty). The other, my rotten puppy ate the handles. (yes, he’s a goober).
Anyway, I have these two wheel barrows that aren’t fully functional. I’ve seen people use them as planters, but I’m wondering if there are any other uses for them? Maybe I can just buy some new handles? 
Or turn the barrow part into a sandbox or something? Not that I’ll ever actually get around to doing that, but I’m just curious.
By the way, my husband and I had an arguement whether it was a wheelbarrow or a wheel barrel. lol. Any votes?

How about using that wheelbarrow for a fire pit? One of my girlfriends had a tree cut down, and instead of paying a fortune having it hauled away – she burned pieces of it in an old wheelbarrow. Not only that, but it made for fun neighborhood camraderie (hot dog roast, s’mores – very fun!)
