Flower pot wreath

In my attempt to make the cement walls outside our basement (our main entrance) less ugly, a couple of years ago, I had my hubby put screws in it so I could hang things. I love to hang things. (Things-not people, people.)

So I bought this wreath at Trader Horn, I think. Added mini terra cotta flowers pots-which I secured with wire I stripped from wired ribbon (because I didn't have any other wire).

Over the years I've lost a pot or two a year and I just replace them. This year I took them all off and gave the gray grapevine a little squirt of white spray paint. Then stripped new wire from some ribbon I had and tied the pots back on.

It's really weathered and rustic (that's what I call beat up and old). But I like weathered and rustic. ☺

  3. Sorry sister.

    Jodie used to have a wreath with little pots with dirt and little artificial flowers and some little garden tools.

    Where is that wreath anyhow?
