Vintage Inspiration Friday

It is Vintage Inspiration Friday over at Common Ground today so I thought I would show you what I use my vintage planters for.  I love using them for organizing my craft things.
The pink flower pot is a McCoy.  I actually use to keep a plant in this one but I have moved it into my craft area and keep all my decorative scissors in it now.  The green one is labeled Marietta and USA and has always been a catch all since I bought it. 
This little Scottie was actually a gift from Debra at Common Ground a few months ago.  I added the ribbon, the bow might be a little large but I think it is so cute.  I usually keep all my smaller scissors in it. 
I also use one to put my remote controls in on one of my end tables.  I bought it just because I loved the color.  It ended up being useful after all.  The bottom of this one is just marked USA 77.
Have a wonderful weekend!  Blessings!

  1. I love vintage planters. I have a collection of green planters that live on my screened in porch. I have several white planters and they are my catch all's. Just the perfect sizes and are so pretty. Glad to find a fellow lover of vintage planters.

  4. I absolutely LOVE that pink planter and your little scottie dog is adorable! I have just a couple of aqua planters from the 40's and, like you, I keep my colored pens in them! So much fun to see them every single day!
    Have a great day and a wonderful week!

  5. I think that planters and pots are great to use as storage container. They have such lovely colors and can be reused as a pot! Have a wonderful weekend, I hope that your weather is as lovely as ours!
