Um, I would never proclaim to be a gardener, so there are no tips here on how to plant them (sorry), BUT there are some fun and creative ideas in here for some unique planters as well as some great inspirations for what to plant. Enjoy!
I particularly like this look - no flowers - all of the drama comes from the various leaf shades.
An interior window box -- why not?
Perfect for north facing, shade loving spots.
Window boxes don't just have to be on windows.
How great is this with a topiary?
For a less traditional look, shelving and brackets is a great idea!
Succulents - always in fashion for me.
These were new to me and I really love them with simple repeating lavendar in those rustic terracotta pots - wow!
Another version - looks like the same window - a great tailored look which I love too.
Customize it...
Customize it...
How neat is this? Christmas or Hannukah - fill your window boxes with bottles and candlelight!
A little different and so quaint for a cottage or lake house!
A gorgeous, timeless look!

You picked some wonderful examples Barbara. I've always liked the idea of window boxes but the husband didn't so instead I have a million urns....lol.

ReplyDeletemaybe i should stick with the bottle idea you show here!

These are wonderful pictures! I got a lot of ideas for my own window box! Right now mine only has miniature boxwoods in it…it's been so hot that my trailing white petunias just wilted away! Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteI have never done window boxes, but these are absolutely gorgeous!

I LOVE window boxes! They add such texture and dimension to a home. Sadly, here in "America's Favorite Toaster Oven", (California) watering is a challenge.
ReplyDeleteWindow boxes never fail to catch my eye. I really like the tin buckets used as window planters. What a neat spin! Great post. I hope you're enjoying summer!

How pretty! I would never have thought of putting hydrangeas in a window box but they look lovely. Also love the clay pots with the lavender and boxwoods. And galvanized too!

You already know how much I love window boxes. :) I'll have to add these creative ideas to my inspiration file for future plantings.
ReplyDeleteEspecially love that interior one filled with pink tulips!
Hope your week is off to a wonderful start, Barbara!!
