House Number Planters

We have had the most fabulous weather the last two days!!  I just cannot wait for it to stick around for good.  We are expecting highs in the 40’s this weekend…yuck!

Even though we are going to have a few colder days, I couldn’t help myself from planting a few flowers outside.  They will have to be brought in at night, but I can deal with that.

I wanted to do something new and fun on my porch.  I decided to combine my love of numbers and burlap to create some pots that display my house numbers.

These were super easy to make, cheap, and I love the graphic detail that they add to the porch.

Here’s what you need to get it done:

1.  I used terra cotta planters ($2.98/ea.)

2.  burlap (which I already had on hand…usually only a couple bucks a yard.  I probably used about 1 1/2 yards)

3.  hot glue gun

4.  paint and number stencils

I cut a square of burlap and then hot glued the edges into the inside lip of the terra cotta planter.  It doesn’t look the prettiest inside, but I knew that it would be covered by dirt anyway.

Then, I stenciled the number onto the front…easy peasy!!

Here is before the flowers were added…

And the after…

Bring on Summer…I am ready!

I may not make it all of these parties each week, but I sure do love them all!  Check them out and let them know I sent you!
