3 Tiered Planters

So my project this weekend was to make some flower pots for my front step. I was inspired by the tiered flowerpots found here at Positively Splendid. I normally do traditional colors in the house so I decided to step out of the box and make my flower pots teal and coral, two great summer colors. I was drawn to the polka dots as well... what's more fun than polka dots for the summer. After painting my pots and stenciling the polka dots and the house number, I set out to find the perfect flowers. Much to Mark's dismay it took 3 different stores before I finally found the flowers I was looking for. The next day I came home and planted them and shortly realized that while I really liked these flowers, the flowers were not to fond of me. Hopefully after a few days they will perk up some more. Hey, I can't be savvy in crafting and gardening... So with much ado here is my final product...

I also decided to tie my front door into the summer colors and added a polka dotted 'W'. Go me!
