Hello There!
I realized the other day that I didn't really ever follow up these outdoor projects I did with the finished result.
At the beginning of the summer, I did a tutorial for a DIY burlap planter. I had an ugly plastic planter that blew into my yard. I waited a few weeks for someone to claim it, but it was never claimed. So I grabbed some burlap I had sitting around and decorated it. It turned out pretty cute. It also ended up being my prettiest planter. The flowers must have liked it too!

Mother's Day flowers.
Junk & flowers are one of my favorite combinations!

| And then the flowers just TOOK off. Look how crazy they spread! Even my Pepsi container looked pretty cute! Next, remember that desk I painted for my front porch? It became a planter as well! The "before"...or as how it will look during the winter.  The summer "After." Next summer I will use succulents instead...these flowers didn't get much water being on the porch and didn't fair as well as others. |
