I'm looking for some bright, solid color pots in various sizes and I'm eager to explore new options! Most of my current pots came from Walmart, Lowe's, or Amazon, so I'm hoping to find something unique and colorful. Any recommendations?

I've found that thrift shops are gold mines for unique pots! I try to avoid buying new items, so I hit up local thrift stores and yard sales. The result is a bunch of mismatched but super eclectic pots that I adore!
For some fancier options, check out local nurseries with home decor sections—they often have really unique items, though they can be a bit pricier. If you can get to an Ocean State Job Lot in the Northeast, they usually have great plastic and resin options, plus some nice ceramic pots, especially in the spring and summer!
Ross and Marshalls usually have a nice selection of pots, and if you want something really DIY, consider painting some terracotta pots with acrylics, then sealing them with gloss for a personal touch. Just a heads up, if you’re using them for edibles, lining the inside is a good idea!
Homegoods can also be a hit or miss but they have decent seasonal selections in spring. Don't forget to check out buy-nothing groups or local artist markets for some creative finds!
Buy-nothing groups are fantastic! I recently got a beautiful pot through one of those.
