Animal planters

I just found the most perfect DIY idea for your plants. You take an old plastic animal in optional size ( It's nice to mix different sizes I guess) and then you make a hole in the animal's back and fill it with soil and a small plant, and voila; you have a beautiful animal flower pot! Then you can of course spray paint the animal in whatever color you prefer. Really easy! I think I will make myself a small collection...

If you don't want to do it yourself, I also found some very nice ceramic pots, especially from Miriam Brugmann. You can buy her work at Etsy.

I love pink!

And then the more sophisticated ones, the ceramic ones:
