I have some projects that I need to get finished around here and one of them I needed to do was get my tomatoes planted. Since I had surgery a month ago I have some limitations so I haven't been able to do that. A while back I saw on Pinterest (of course) planters that were simple but fun using burlap and you all know how much I love burlap. I checked around for the plain black plastic buckets like the ones plants are in when you get them at the nursery and the ones I found were 10 bucks...I couldn't believe they were that expensive it's just plastic, not even pretty plastic!!! So I continued my serach and I found just plain white 5 gallon buckets at Walmart for $2.97 each (now that's what I am talking about) my lovely husband drilled holes for me in the bottom for drainage and since a plain white bucket is not very appealing to the eye I found at a garden center burlap bags for $1.29 each...wow another great find for cheap!!! So with the lovely help of my momma who did all the planting I am happy to say my planters (that I love) cost a whopping $4.94 each and my tomatoes are planted. I can't wait to get fresh tomatoes (hopefully the sun will come out) we are at the end of June but my husband says it looks and feels like Juneuary, that's the Pacific Northwest for ya, but I love it here!!!!
