Lots of Pots
The
gardening section of my favorite local dollar store has a good
selection of plastic planters of varying sizes to help dress up the deck
along with the ever-popular clay pot, in an assortment of sizes both
plain and fancy. And who
says you always have to plant flowers in a flowerpot?

Here, we’ve
used a 3 ½” painted clay pot as a napkin holder which, barring
gale-force winds, should help to keep your serviettes from
escaping all over the neighborhood.
Use this
decorating idea indoors, as well. If you keep your eyes open, you
can sometimes find attractive paper napkins in the dollar store.
These came in a
package of 20 for a dollar.
One of these clay pots, inverted,
makes a great candlesnuffer for those citronella torches so you
can save your breath.
In the springtime, gardening
supplies branch out to help fill the spaces reserved for seasonal.
It was in one of those places that these attractive faux stone
mini planters were found.
The taller ones are 6“ high and
the rectangular ones are 6 ½” long at their widest point by 3
and ¾” high. They come in a variety of styles and are perfect
for adding a bit of oomph to a garden corner.
Because of their diminutive size,
you can continue to enjoy these planters indoors when Jack Frost
threatens.

These little clay pots were two for a dollar and could be just the hit of summery color an
outdoor room needs. Cheer up your favorite houseplants by giving them a new home for the season or simply stack three of these fun pots together and display them in an otherwise drab corner
indoors.
