Maybe it’s just me, but the price of flower pots seem to be a little steep as of late. So I challenged myself to see what types of fun “pots” I could find at Thrift Town. I was basically looking for anything that would hold a plant. I found some cute, and very inexpensive options.

The first one I found was a vintage pot with roosters on it. It was too adorable to pass up, and for $2.99 fit my budget! I planted myself a mini succulent garden and think it turned out pretty cute! Would make a great hostess gift or teacher appreciation gift!

Along with the rooster pot, I also found a pretty traditional yellow pot for $1.99, as well as some vintage metal pots (maybe camping pots?). I found a set of three metal pots all for $0.99 each. Sold!

I love the big metal tub. This was a steal for $3.99 and makes for a great herb garden holder! I love this vintage strainer, which if you fill the bottom with moss would make a great flower pot, and the brown pot was too cute to pass up for $0.99.

Last, but certainly not least is this very cool metal toolbox. You can use this with live or silk flowers. I filled it with silk hydrangeas and I think it makes for a very cool looking centerpiece or decorative piece in a bookcase or sofa/entry table. Toolbox was $4.99! Successful trip!
