Conner and I spent this past weekend enjoying friends and family but also doing a lot of yardwork. It was the first ‘weed pull’ of the year and my back tells the story – it wasn’t fun. It always looks so much better when we’re finished but what a bear to do! I’m now in outdoor mode though and when I saw these planters on Pinterest, I knew I wanted to make them.
Kate over at Centsational Girl is an amazing DIY’er. She has great style and is super brave with her projects. I would love to have these, make these, plant in these…whatever it takes to own them! I love the style and the price. (planters are expensive!) Have you attempted something like this? I think I need to add these to my spring DIY to-do list.
The Steen Style 
Wow. The planters are gorgeous. I don’t have a lot of experience with DIY planters but I do have a lot of experience with weeding. When I was young and got “grounded” my punishment was always pulling weeds. Now I see the genius in my parents’ thought process.
Hah! My parents always said they had me for in-house labor!
Have you seen the Threshold Target planters? Just got a great sized one for less than $50! I didn’t see any exactly like the ones you have pictured (love those so much too!), but they had some great, simple, not cheap looking options. Can’t wait to see how yours turn out!
