We often collect small (10 inches or less) flower pots. We get them as gifts, when we buy a small plant or flower somewhere or when we see something that just catches our eye as a wonderful art piece. Additionally, small pots are often cute and easy to carry home.

When I visit people’s homes, I often find their collection of small pots scattered around the patio such as in this picture.

With a little cleanup and addition of some nice shade loving plants, the area is quickly transformed into a place that is a pleasure to enjoy.

What A Difference!
