Hand Painted Geometric Planters
Target’s line of craft supplies by Handmade Modern never fails to tempt me off-list during a Target run. During a recent trek, I picked up this pair of super cute wooden planters. Their simple, faceted shapes were so cute. I couldn’t wait to get them home so I could embellish them. This project can easily be customized by choosing your own set of paint colors. Leave the planters in a solid color, or paint individual sides in a palette that matches your home’s decor.
