Red Chair Planter

I love this chair / planter idea – We have seen many recently with flower pots in the chairs, but this is actually planted. Not sure where to find a chair to create a planter like this adorable red chair, no problem, we have several that has come into the store! Pick up a couple and get a jump for the next gardening season!

P.S. Don’t forget to share your pics with us!

Enamel Coffee Pot Gardening

 

How about a new take on those colorful enamel coffee pots laying around. This is so adorable, you could even display this on your dinner table, or coffee table.

Don’t have any enamel coffee pots laying around – don’t fear, we have many colors and sizes to choose from!

 

I did something like this last year with old coffee pots of different shapes and sizes and made a "bucket garden" also different shapes and sizes.  Loved the look!

Happy gardening, and please share you photos with us. We would love to see the unique items you use in your garden.

Gardening with Copper

 

Not quite sure what to do with those old copper pots we have at the store? Well, wonder no longer. Here is a wonderful idea, and the copper flower pots already have holes in them for water drainage.
