Lynn: I love that kettle! I planted something in a tea kettle once but had forgotten to drill holes for drainage and the plant ended up floating. I think I still have the tea kettle around someplace ... I'll have to look for it and add the drainage holes and re-plant it. Thanks for reminding me of that! I love that succulent trailing over the sides of yours .. that foliage color looks really nice with the pattern on the kettle!
I have a collection of ivory colored pitchers and used to use them as cache pots for small plants to sit down in. They are packed away now and I lost my pictures when my laptop crashed a year or so ago.
