We know E.T.’s alien chums were interstellar botanists, and that the little cutie can revive dead plants… now that’s the kind of garden assistance I need.
This ceramic ET planter was made from a vintage mould by Terra Bella Pottery on Etsy, and is (clearly) adorable. The detail in the casting is really crisp, and the glaze brings out his expression perfectly. I love the idea of giving him all sorts of different flowery hair-dos…
Admittedly, January isn’t a great time for gardening (at least not here in the UK), but you could always use him to display cut flowers, or grow house-plants, before moving him outside in the spring.
