    I made some tipsy pots today...so easy and I love the way they turned out!!

    Plus...we painted our brick on our house and then I did a paint treatment to make it look like brick.

    It's all on today's post on my blog. I'd post pics here, but I never seem to size them right.

    Thank you!

    All I did was buy some rebar at lowe's (1/2 inch by 48")...hammered it into the ground. Then I bought 6 inch terra cotta pots with the hole in the bottom. I threaded the pots on the rebar, filled with dirt and a plant.

    Very easy!

    You didn't have to drill new holes in the pots????

    I think this looks fabulous and I will definitely try it out. Thanks for sharing.

    Here's a tutorial for making tipsy pots, I've had for a while. Can't remember if it's someone on this board of someone from Garden Junk Board. Anywho, enjoy.
