I was at my mothers at the weekend……she is 84 and needs a bit of help now at home…….. i was taking something out to her old garage….which hasnt been used for a few years since dad died……it was full of cobwebs and ivy was growing through the gaps…….after bravely venturing in……i noticed there were 2 white flower pots in there……..AHHHHHH i thought to myself if mum doesnt want them i will find a use for them……….
Mum didnt mind at all.she cant do gardening anymore… so i brought the pots home, and planted them up with some violas and cyclemen……..i thought they looked rather nice on my patio…. leading up to the grass……..
i used to have some of these pots years ago……. so it was nice to find something a bit different………..

Love the pots Holly, very good find. Much better for them to be put to use rather than collecting dust.
