I find myself looking everywhere, and at everything wondering...hmm, maybe I could plant semps in that?
I found some actual flower pots at the dollar store, but I also found a few other containers that will work not only for semps, but my other plants too!
Popcorn bowl $1.


Flower pots $1.


Larger flower pot $2.

Plastic trash can $3.

Another popcorn bowl $1.

Flower pots $1. Each. I bought a few of the red. My favorite color!

More plastic trash cans. I picked up a bunch of these. I have several other plants in these.

Dish pan set up for chicks.

Dish pan $2. I think I'll get a few more of these.


Hope it's okay to post so many images.

Can never have too many images of creative use.

The Dollar Store is a great source of containers! Nice score!

The semp area is usually not this messy. We had rain last night and it splashed soil all over the siding and made a bit of a mess on the risers. Guess I should have swept before taking photos. LOL

When you look around at some of the photographs posted by the rest of us, you might not feel that way, Terri. Ask me how I know...

Whew, glad I'm not the only one! At least my semps don't sit in mess for very long, the glass studio is another story.

DEFINITELY not the only one.

Glass studio? Do you make artwork for outside, maybe? We have a forum for that...and we lov.v.e pictures. Even if for indoor display, I, for one, love glass art and would greatly enjoy seeing photographs.

Wow, Terri what a haul for almost nothing. I love that.
I really like the shape of the popcorn bowls, they do a great job of setting of the semps.
I'm with the others here, you can never post to many new ideas for containers.

I haven't made any glass for outside...yet. Mostly wall art for the home and decorative bowls.

Great variety of containers Terri!

Great selection there Terri, you've obviously got a good eye for a bargain .
