Container Gardening: Some of This Year's Winter Containers

As per my recent posts on spray-painted alliums and wreath-making, I am trying do most of my indoor and outdoor Christmas decorating with cuttings from my garden. As a part of this effort, here are some of the winter containers that I have put together this past week. I'm about half-way done and will post pictures of the others after I finish them. If you want to see how they differ from last year's winter containers, click here.

These are SO beautiful! You have a very good eye for what looks good together. I was hoping to do something like this, but the snow and ice came too soon and now it is too difficult to get into the backyard (very hilly and slippery)!
