Hang 10: the Circle planters from Potted

These locally made Circle pots from the Atwater Village garden store Potted are hard to miss. Dangling from a tree, the ceramic planters stand out for their cheerfulness alone.

Designers Annette Goliti Gutierrez and Mary Gray said the containers were inspired by -- get this -- the hanging ceramic ashtrays of the 1960s. "We thought, what if we made a hanging planter like that?" Gutierrez said. "Cool hanging planters are very hard to come by."

Gutierrez and Gray designed the Circles so you can put a 4-inch nursery pot in them. Each measures 12 inches in diameter and comes with an 18-inch stainless steel cord, which can be removed if you want the piece as tabletop decor. DIYers could drill a drainage hole in the bottom and plant directly into the container.   

It's available in two colors -- Orange You Glad and White Cloud -- each $75 at the store, 3158 Los Feliz Blvd., Los Angeles; (323) 665-3801.

75 $ is a ripoff i can construct my own hanging pots. What a joke these rich people are forking over the 75 $ for these things that were probably made in China.

Well I'm glad you took the time to post about our Circle Pots. They are, in fact, made in the Los Angeles area and we are very proud of them.
