Gardening : Put This Cow to Pasture With Potted Plants

Put a cow to pasture in your very own yard this year with our trendy cow planter. This cow doesn’t attract flies, requires no care and won’t “milk” you dry in hay and feeding expense. Just fill her with some potted plants or flowers.

She is made from pine and measures 37 inches long, 20 1/2 high and 14 wide. Simply trace the full-size parts onto wood, cut out, assemble and paint. Step-by-step directions with photos, a materials list and cutting schedule make it easy.

Dress up your cow with a bell around her neck, make ears from scrap leather or add a tail of rope. It’s fun to be creative with this project.
