So I try to spiff it up with some plants and what not, but really that’s not enough. So I thought I really need to be a little more creative with planter, then when the plants aren’t blooming, I’ll still have something interesting to look at. I have a deck off my family room that is pretty blah.

My spouse has many plantings around our several acres. When he plants something new that needs a steady supply of surface water, due to shallow roots, he sometimes uses a 2 liter soda bottle.

These work best with thicker grocery store brown paper sacks and you will need a sewing machine. Such a unique twist on a necessary item if you have plants. Use a brown paper bag and have your kids color on them for an even more personal touch. Woven Baskets via ThePinterestProject. These would be one of the most amazing gifts!
