Planter Ideas

Can it possibly be that we do not have snow in the forecast for a whole entire week, followed by temperatures that is actually above freezing??!! Dare I say it out loud? Spring is here! I hope I did not just jinx us. Everyone I talk to is ready to spend some time outdoors and is more than ready to get back to some outdoor living. Now I know the inclination is tackle it all at once and create a wonderful outdoor oasis both for your enjoyment and to entertain in. My advice is start small and make a list of outdoor areas to tackle. Begin with curb appeal and your front porch and move your way around back. An excellent place to start is with some new spring planters and fresh flowers. Here are some planter ideas to get you started.

Keep it simple and make a statement outdoors. Layer pots planted with single plants in various hues and textures.
