Watering Can - has a hole in it so doesn't function as a watering can but going to make a great planter - watch this space!!
Chimney Pot - needs a smaller pot (its on my to do list)!
I have picked up the pots from car boot sales and markets pretty cheaply. I get my Partner to drill a few holes in the base and then fill the bottom with stones, broken tiles or anything I can find for drainage, then fill with multi purpose compost and plant!
I saw this picture on Pinterest and am now saving the Kids wellies :)
See here for my garden planter makeover.
What do you think? What do you use as planters in your garden?
Thank you for reading xx
Oh my goodness! What great ideas! Love them all , especially the wellies! I am boring and have only normal pots but you have inspired me! Again! Thanks for sharing. Mandy x
ReplyDeleteYou always leave such lovely comments Mandy :) I love the wellies too, I'm definitely going to do it! I have some normal pots too but who knows maybe I will paint them haha!! Xx
DeleteThanks so much for sharing your inspiration, I'm a classic for looking at leaky watering can and thinking "rubbish, in the bin" but I need to start learning how to think outside the box. They all look so pretty and I totally agree with store pots being totally overpriced X #HomeEtc
ReplyDeleteHello, Once you start you will see anything can be used as a planter - broken teapot, buckets, anything really! Happy to have inspired, thanks for stopping by, Tracy x
DeleteI love your planters! I am trying to more creative outside and I'd love to get an old tin bath, or something, for planting. I'm still kicking myself for not bidding on a lot of old bread bins at our local auction recently - they'd have been perfect. #HomeEtc
ReplyDeleteHello, ooh old bread would have been perfect! Sure you will come across some more :) I'm looking out for a large trough on legs to fill with herbs and have at the back door - the searching is just as fun as the planting! Thanks for stopping by x
DeleteI love the galvanised metal ones! I'm looking to use an old BBQ left behind by the old owners.... not sure how yet! #HomeEtc
ReplyDeleteHi Jemma, that sounds interesting - does it have a fold back lid? You could make new legs for the lid and have a double planter? :) Its so great to re-use old things, saves money and adds a quirky interest to your garden! Good luck with your bbq xx
DeleteI absolutely love galvanised metal plant containers — especially with purple or lilac flowers. The colours work so well together! We've all sorts of odd containers in our garden! Gone are the days of things matching :) Thanks so much for linking up with #HomeEtc — hope to see you again tomorrow! x

Yes I love planting flowers and shrubs in containers and anything unusual! They seem to grow better too! Thanks so much for linking up with #HomeEtc — Jess x
