Planters?
Permalink  
 


so i bought planters for my front steps last year that were fine.  they were black and did the job.  well, i left them outside over the winter and now they are destroyed.  oops.

so i need to replace them.

has anyone seen decent black planters anywhere for a reasonable price?  i really don't want to spend an arm and a leg.

tia! :)

Are they destroyed meaning faded and ugly, or destroyed with holes and unusable?  If just ugly, I would spraypaint.  Obviously, not the case if they are no longer intact.

i was totally going to spray paint, but the outer layer is coming off in big chunks and they are crumbling around the bottom. :glum:

I am not sure what you have available to you there, but sometimes I find really good deals at places like Big Lots, Tuesday Morning, TJ Maxx and farm stores like Farm & Fleet or Rural King.  If you have a Hobby Lobby you can usually print a 40% off coupon on regular priced stuff and you might get a deal that way.  Sometimes Michael's also honors competitor coupons and vice versa.
