He is very cute despite being a pain to make. If you'd be interested in making a smaller version, check out Emily Phillips' book Decorating Accents for the Garden. She makes a much smaller version using threaded rod. It uses smaller pots and is probably a little more than 2' tall. I've always wanted to make one but alas I don't have any room to put it! Good luck at the garden fair!

That is very cute. Good luck selling it.I'm sure someone will snap it up.

He is precious! I was sad to hear he took so long! I saw him and was thinking I needed to find instructions. Methinks one would be cute out napping in the shade of the pecan tree...

That is really cute. I made one one time too. I know how hard they are to get them together! They are fun to see sitting in the garden though!!!

He sure is a handsome fellow!! Hard to move around tho I bet!! Hope you have good luck at the "Garden Fair" Jan

Very neat!! Sorry it took you so long but you did an awesome job on him. Good luck at the sale.

Well what an appropriate name for this fella. Joking aside you have done a great job. He's a keeper.

Great job! I love the shoes too!

Thanks all - now a question. Sale is tomorrow. I figured up I have between $23 -$25 in this guy. What's a fair asking price?

about double..45 or 49 dollars

I can not make a pot man this year. I have been thinking about how I would do it though. Everytime I see those "Green man" placks I think of attaching one to a pot man for his face. Just a thought for the future when funds are available.

That's one of the nicest ones I've seen. You did a nice job on him. I like the moss betwen the pots. Love his 'bangs' .What is he held together with? I bet that would be cute to make one with the really tiny pots, but maybe even harder to put together. Good luck at the garden fair.

Very cute...I like them too...

Very cute good luck at the fair.
I like Susie's idea of a green man face. I have two concrete molds that are green man's faces. It would be fun to attach one to a body instead of just laying them in the garden (what I do now).

WOW! Looks like a ton of work...I counted 25 pots!!! Yes, you will have to charge high dollar! I've been collecting the "little" terra cotta pots at TS, GS, etc. to make a wreath...sure it will be much easier than this! Yes, I luv FArmer's Market, too! We do Sat. morn...6 mos of yr. but we don't do every one...too much other good stuff goin' on Sat. am's! Our cost is $60 for the season...real reasonable! TFS your pic & have fun! Jeanne S.

Thanks all - he's held together with nylon rope and large washers and lots of knots. But......HE'S GONE!!! I sold him early in the sale for $55. Made me wonder if I should have marked him higher. But the gal who bought him was happy and I was happy not to drag him home - so all is well. By the way Jeanne, it's 16 pots for the legs, 12 for the arms, and 3 for the body - so 31 altogether!!

Not at all surprised he sold right away and at a great price. He was terrific looking! He would have looked good under my big walnut tree :o) Darlene

Very cute!! I'm glad you got him sold & at a good price!
