green thumbs and planters

Via Design*Sponge

Isn't the planter in this photo perfect? Simple and earthly while still maintaining clean lines and a pop of color. It's everything I could ask for in a planter.

Since #82 on my 101 list is to start a garden or a herb garden, it gives me the perfect excuse to gather some boards and spray paint a few brackets to put together a planter of my own.

What do you think? Have you seen any cute planters lately?
