Yardsale Pots



a quarter each

Last week when the temperature was in the mid seventies, I bought pots to plant flowers and herbs. Yesterday, when  it was in the mid fifties out, I got them out of the trunk of the car. Today, now in the mid thirties, I am thinking about planting.
 
Each of these pots cost a quarter each. When I said I would take them, they were stacked. So, I bought a stack of plastic pots for $1.75. Seven plastic pots made me happy. They are not pretty, but they will do. Yesterday, when I took them from the trunk of the car, I discovered that two were actually terracotta. Sweet! Look at the two in front, the largest and smallest. Exbf came to see why I was squealing with delight. He was disappointed to see it was just the little pot below.
 
 
this little pot is the one in the group picture--cute!
 
Look at the little one above, the one about 7" tall. I love the design. So, I am especially happy with my really good deal.
 
Since I am not into self-torture, I won't plant anything today. It's too cold. I just need to muddle along to the next project...when I get warm.
 
Your turn
Do you ever find pots for your use at yard sales?

  1. Yard sales, thrift stores... yes indeed. My hubs actually thinks I have a pots/planter addict; I just keep on finding and buying them!

  2. Jennifer,
    You could have a worse addiction! If he ever looks at prices at any store, he may think you are brilliant for spending less money. What do you plant in your pots and planters?

Okay, hoping the annoyances have gone away.
