We stopped on our way back to CT this morning--and had the car packed so tightly with my son and his friend and our camping gear that I had no room...but I saw something I really craved--and wanted to let you know in case you could take advantage of this--beautiful terracotta planters from Italy--I think they were $10-$15. They were lovely.

seen at Ocean State Job Lots in Westerly Rhode Island
Thanks for the heads-up!
Yes, they are lovely....saw them about a month ago.
They are a great place to buy reasonable pots and planters! I saw some huge ceramic planter/pots earlier in the summer just like those I spent $$$$ in Florida to grow my veggies in. They were a fraction of what I paid.
I bought a ceramic one......made in Vietnam....love the color, & it's keeping my lemon tree looking nice!
What color is yours, Marilyn?
A nice shade of blue......
I bought quite a few planters there this summer....really great prices on those pots. The selection was much better early in the season so I will be on the lookout next spring. Though God knows where I'm gonna store the ones I bought this year!
Years ago I bought some chocolate brown terracotta pots that were sold at Kmart from the Martha Stewart line. I like the way they grew a mossy patina. Well, I haven't seen them since, and I wanted more, so I bought some of the terra cotta ones at Ocean State and colored them brown using watered down acrylic paint. ( The natural terra cotta color doesn't appeal to me as much). Then I went crazy and actually faux painted on the mossy patina, lol. I think they look pretty good, if I do say so myself! I'll try to post pics later. They were nice in their natural state as well, I just like a darker color with my plants.
