Five creative spring gardens

The temperatures are still a little cool around here to start setting out spring flowers, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t started thinking about what I want to plant.

I’ve recently happened upon all sorts of neat ideas for turning things into unique planters. Recycling unwanted household items by filling them with beautiful flowers is a win-win situation, in my opinion.

Chair turned planter

My grandpa gave me this cute old chair. It had a metal slat seat in it. I took the seat out and popped a planter into it. Doesn’t it look cute with this fern in it?

I want an old washtub so I can do this! Wouldn’t that be cute?

This toolbox planter is absolutely adorable.

I need a carriage now so I can plant flowers in it.

I have never thought about planting anything in a flour sifter but this is pretty cute!

I hope you all have a great week! Join us on Friday for our spring home tour.

    This is a cute collection of ideas. I, too, am starting to think about planting already – probably too soon!

    The carriage one is definitely my favorite but they are all beautiful. ♥
