March 26, 2012 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

This tiered planter at Positively Splendid is so perfect for sprucing up outdoor spaces!

If you’ve been around since the very beginning here at PS, you probably remember when I originally posted about my Tiered Terracotta Planter, a project that was a take on an idea that originally graced the cover of Southern Living probably close to ten years ago.
