Hello sweet friends, hope all is well! Hoping in real quick to share quick finds I plan on using for plants on our deck this year.
We saw these on Instagram at the our thrifting spot. They were a steal so John drove with his mask in hand to pick them up curbside for me, he’s the best!
The old dairy pail has such neat graphics so I added a clear coat of Artisan top coat to make it really stand out.
John and I love cars and we watch the auto channel and saw them add a clear coat to a rusted car. Sounds weird but it looked gorgeous.
So, I decided to do it to the large pail. Look how gorgeous the graphice are!
I can’t wait to fill these with plants!
I’m going to add them to our deck mixed with more formal planters we have had forever and received a face lift last season.
I’m love mixing very old with new an admirer of rustic and elegance!
Great old containers!

First of all those planters are gorgeous just the way they are and you adding a little magic to the bigger one will just be the icing on the cake. Love the character of these. Have fun with them.
Hugs,

I love your vintage containers, and these will look beautiful with flowers planted in them on your deck. I especially love the oblong copper container. I have seen these at antique shops, and they can cost a pretty penny. You definitely found a treasure! Take care, and happy Monday!

I do too. It’s awesome that ours posts on Instagram and stagers customers and does curbside pickup.
They’re small business and need the income so if it’s something I love John my love goes
