Comments about Lillian Vernon Tin Planters - Set of 3:

I bought these for my mother for mothers day and loved them so much that I bought them for myself when we bought our new house. We haven't put them up yet b/c they don't fit over our railing. I am going to have to configure a way to put them up. I can't wait till that day comes b/c I really do love them.

I bought these and they were darling for about a month. Then, after a couple of rains, they started to lose their color and also the sun has faded them. I've only had them a MONTH! Terrible quality. I would not buy again.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Tin Planters - Set of 3:

My neighbor and I both have children whom play together often. Many times toys, etc would be left at each others houses-as we had a fence separtating us, we made these planters be each child's mailbox! If they forgot a toy or loved blankie etc they would look outside and there it was in their mailbox hanging on the fence! The kids even leave messages for each other or kind gestures like movies to borrow if we know they are not feeling well. The kids LOVE their mailboxes!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Tin Planters - Set of 3:

These little planters are very pretty hanging on the deck railing. Although the hook part didn't fit over the width of my railing, I put them up anyway. I was concerned that they'd fly off with the first windy day. To my surprise, through 2 very stormy events, they've stayed put! The weight of the contents and the metal aspect of the hook sort of digs into the wood a bit, could be the reason. Anyway, they look so nice with flowers in them and add a very nice touch to my deck railing.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Tin Planters - Set of 3:

I couldn't attach the handles because the bolts were too short. I am using the pots without the handles. I would really like to have the handles attached to the pots so I could hang them like they are meant to be used.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Tin Planters - Set of 3:

The planters are brightly colored and look great on my driveway gate and side fence. I filled them with wave petunias and have had many complements on them. I did need to use pliers and a screwdriver to get the nuts off the bolts as they were painted together. Once I managed to separate the two, it was smooth sailing to put these planters together. I was worried about drainage, but there is a hole in the bottom. Also, the pots that the petunias came in fit the planter perfectly, so I did not even need to transplant. I would highly recommend these to anyone looking to brighten their area!
