Pussy Willows and Pansies

Spring Planters

I really love pansies.  I love how delicate and colorful they are.  For my spring planters, I wanted to use this flower.  I chose a small variety in light and deep purple with a hint of yellow to tie in with my spring wreath:

These little planters were so easy.  I already had the containers.  I got them at Target last year, they were by Smith and Hawken.  The pansies I picked up from Home Depot and my mom brought the pussy willows on Easter.
John and Conor helped me plant the pansies:
I thought that pussy willows with there sweet little silvery puffs would add something soft and little different:
So I got out the pussy willows, twine and my secateurs.
I put four branches around the outside of the pansies and then a bunch inside and joined with a bow of twine.  I’m really happy with how they came out and the best part was  it only took me about five minutes.
