Gardeners have a wide variety of "tastes" when it comes to landscape decorations. If you are looking for directions to make a garden buddy out of flower pots, here's a good link:
I like this- It doesn't ruin the pots so they can be used later if you want to! Great idea- Wonder how he would look made out of the black plastic ones that flowers and garden veggies are purchased in? Hummm...
OK I made two pot pals. They are, Pete Moss and Clay Potts. They are over 20 years old and looking pretty worn out these days. Maybe I'll have to reinvent them but they are quite a hit in my town.
Look for old pots at garage sales and thrift stores . This should help keep the price down. You can also advertise for Free pots Craigslist or the Freecycle in your area.
I L-O-V-E this idea!!!! One of my friends that my husband and I help out (she is chronically ill and cannot do her own yard work), has beautiful gardens and benches. She has a few "friends" already made of various other materials. Most of them are made from car parts that are welded together. But I think that this would be absolutely PERFECT for one or two of her benches either in the front yard or in one of the gardens in the side yard!!!! Just getting the pots will be the challenge.
