I went to Lowes on my Lunch break and went to the clearance Aisles . They are making room for New spring items, in having huge sales on last years items,, I got this planter that is fairly big for $7.47  I think I'm going to paint it I'm not liking the dull green color on it, I may go with Blue,, or a soft Yellow,,  I'm going to wait until later to plant anything in it,, My thought is something that will cascade over,, and I want to get a new coconut liner for it, the one that came with it is very sparse/ thin,, I don't want the soil to fall out,, ![[Linked Image]](http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e374/2thtek/yard%20and%20flowers/newplanter.jpg)

I don't mind the green either - depends on where you are going to put it, and what other colors you have in that area? Blue would be nice too. Sometimes greens don't go with the leaf colors of the plants that you put in the planter, you know?

I like your "bargain" Diane.----and I like the green--I think it will blend in with any plant flower you put in it---

Green is Okay I just don't like that dull of green, Maybe if it were a dark green or a stone etched green it would look better,
