I was hoping all my fun planters would be ready for some beauty shots by now, but they are not except for this one. And its my favorite anyway.
Its an old metal teapot planter. The best thing about it? I scoured it up from my Pap’s old toolshed. He used to keep random nuts, bolts, etc. in it. The flowers in this pot always do so well every year.
And I think of my Pap each time I look at it. And wow, that table really needs to be cleaned.

Suprisingly and unexpectedly different elements coming together to make such a beautiful statement! I love the rustic-ness(is this a word?) of the table with the shiny metal of the teapot and the pretty pink blooms! It looks amazing!:)
