Tuesday Tutorial - Tiered Planters

I don't know about you, but I've been in the mood to start planting some flowers and seeing some color when I go outdoors. I'm not much for a flower bed... I hate weeding... but I love container gardens.

Today I'd like to share something I am planning on trying this year.... tiered planters.

I've seen a LOT of ways to do tiered planters, but the two I am sharing today are really nice... and ones I'd like to try myself. (You're probably wondering if this post was written for me or you... aren't you?)

The first one is for the tip-top planter. You can find the directions and supply list for this one at www.instructables.com


The second one I found is great too. I love how she put the house number on there - what a great touch... oh and the polka-dots - LOVE THEM! You can find this tutorial at www.positivelysplendid.com

If you have any ideas you'd like to share with us, be sure to leave us a comment - we love hearing from you!

Thanks for stopping by!
