bought one for myself and one as a gift for a professional landscaper. i love mine and can't wait for a response on the other. i also have all sizes of the "face" pots which look fabulous worked together. i wonder about the rope holding up, weather-wise, if used outdoors. perhaps should only be used in protected areas???

This piece is cute with a capital "Q"! And, it's substantial--made with real mini terracotta pots. If you enjoy a little whimsy in your garden, this is the perfect complement. This "guy" is also versatile--looks great hanging or best seated on a ledge with his legs hanging over.

Comments about Flower Pot Man:

I ordered this flower pot man for my mom and all of my sisters and gave them as gifts. They were all very happy to receive them and have placed them in various places in their flower gardens; one sister kept hers indoors, and let him sit on a shelf in her kitchen. They are definitely not to play with, so keep them out of reach of pets and small children!
