The start of our container garden and All the Best Planters

July 28, 2022

Planters | Faux Boxwood Topiary | Metal Lanterns | Pillar Candles

You will never regret buying substantial outdoor planters, end of discussion. Our front steps have these concrete planters, and I love having that touch of modern as the first impression of our home. They also compliment the faux topiaries that I am so obsessed with.

I have long envisioned having a collection of large outdoor planters in our backyard with edible plants. We are not much of the gardening type, but a few tomatoes, peppers, and herbs are something I think we can handle. I also envision incorporating some additional accent planters throughout the backyard, specifically near the newly painted utility door. I just love a mix of in-ground and potted plants in outdoor living spaces.

Dark Gray Stone Planters | Montpellier Planter | Gordon Flower Pot

Chris already got a jump start on the edible plants in our backyard planters! Watch out; the CLJ garden is coming in full swing with even more baby plants. 😉

While we have a spot over by the in ground trampoline for a garden if we wish someday, it’s not at the top of our to do list right now. But planting a few vegetables and herbs in large pots is both beautiful and functional and making us weirdly happy.

From left to right we have:

1 - Lime Tree
2 - Basil, Opal Basil, Thai Basil, Sage, Red Bell Peppers, Chives
3 - Cherry Tomatoes
4 - Thyme, Chives, Tarragon, Parsley, Dill
5 - Meyer Lemon Tree

Most of these pots came with us but I recently added two more l. I also rounded up some of my favorite planters at every price point and a variety of sizes; however, I think bigger is always better in terms of planter size. There I said it. Outside the sky is literally the limit so larger scale planters will always work in your favor.

  1. Bigger isn't always better if you have a small bungalow and a tiny patio. Scale still matters, even outside

My Storage Hack for Organizing Christmas Decorations

Every year when I pack up the decorations after Christmas, I collect all of the garlands together in one box, I get all the candlesticks together in another box, and all my nativity sets go into their own box. We label the boxes "garlands," "candles," "nativity sets,"...which seems great until you remember that you have […]
