    There's a neat store I pass on the way to/from work. They sell mulch, rock, etc PLUS lots of stuff for the garden - fancy and rustic (and inside there is a gift shop with jewelry and all sorts of stuff).
    They were having their after Christmas sale and I just had to stop in and get something.
    I set a limit on what I could spend... and here's what I came out with.
    A cute bunny planter....

    And a neat hanging bucket planter...

    I do believe I've found a new favorite store! :-D

    Those are great. I love hanging buckets like that, I have several hanging on the fence out front. That planter is interesting, any ideas of what you will put in it?

    Toni... I don't know what I'll plant in the "bunny". Whatever it will be will have to be sort of small.
    Any suggestions? :-D
    And I think I may just have to stop in again and get at least one more of those buckets!

    I know what I'd plant in the bunny - snowdrops and crocus's or maybe some miniature tulips. Gosh you did well finding such unusual and pretty things for your garden.

    The bunny planter is just in time for Easter. Ok, maybe a bit early :) I've never seen a bucket planter like that. The barbed wire is a nice touch!

    I am thinking 'theme' here....which was how I usually made quilts when I was doing that so now themes keep jumping out at me when I am making gardening plans too.

    There is a plant called Rabbit Ears
    Nestle your planter at the base of one of those, fill it with dirt and keep it moist for a butterfly puddle.
