I’ve been wanting to make these fun flower pots since I spotted them at Evangeline’s Vine last June. I was inspired.
While it would have been simple to do it then, I waited for a year. That’s how a roll.
But, I finally got around to it. Just simple spray painting and some vinyl decals, and voila! I didn’t have enough room for the “No.” pot, but I like it anyhow.
The lanterns were scooped up at IKEA on my ridiculous shopping spree. Don’t they look great?
Now, I know what my address is. (And, the entire Internet apparently. Call before you drop by, okay?)
Is anyone else inspired to get to painting?

I already knew your house number from my daily stalking drive-bys.
I looooove this idea but I doubt I could have pulled it off as flawlessly as you did, my friend.
I need to stop coming over here, it just makes me feel inafequate. At least I’ll still have my daily stalking to look forward to.
Stephanie says

Adorable. Love the your choice of red – but then I LOVE red!

How cute! I have been thinking of using vinyl numbers on our door for our house number. (Notice the thinking of, hmm maybe it will take me a year as well??) Thanks for the inspiration!

I love these! I don’t have enough horizontal space to do this so I am thinking of doing the vertical planters in planters with the house numbers. {It was posted in “bloggie land” over the past couple of weeks.} I love your pots!

Jen@Notes From the Heartland says
The flowerpots are great Kim! The touches of red against the gray are SOO pretty. I saw somewhere in the blog universe “house number” pillows on a front porch. Do you think it would be overkill if I did both….’CAUSE I LOVE YOUR IDEA!!!

I totally love the pots, and may steal the idea for sure… XOXO!
Jenny @ Words on Wendhurst says
Love the little pots. I am too paranoid to post my address on my blog with little pots, but that’s a cute idea. Your curb appeal is through the roof my dear! And yes, I was totally eyeing those lanterns at IKEA, but unfortunately I ran out of room in my suitcase. ๐

So cute! I love the pops of red.
Emily says
Um, I love this. You would do something this fabulous and beautiful. And the lanterns are wonderful, too. I have 1 year and 3 months until I live 30 minutes from an IKEA. Can’t flipping wait.
Shannon says
Other people’s ideas are the best, aren’t they? And red lanterns at Ikea, you say? Hmmm, this may call for a trip there. Your house looks magazine-y right now, loooove it.
