Form a Basket Using Metal Tubing

Form a Basket Using Metal Tubing Isn't this pretty? The gold metal tubing looks gorgeous against the white bowl. The crafty part here involves “weaving” the metal tubing into a macrame style hanging basket. This is made possible by cutting the metal tubing into 1.5 and 9.5-inch pieces and threading them using thick floral wire.

Hang STYROFOAM Cones

Hang STYROFOAM Cones How cute! These are not considerable in size so they'd be great for small hanging plants. You make them by carving out the middle of Styrofoam cones and painting them in any color you prefer. Let dry, then make holes near the base for hanging. Another way to go about this cone idea is to make your planter using polymer clay.

Recycle Plastic Bottles

Recycle Plastic Bottles You probably discard a good number of plastic bottles every month. Save some and turn them into uniquely beautiful hanging planters. You will use only the bottom half of said plastic bottles. Poke two holes for tying a cord or rope, spray paint in white (or any color), and hang.

Give a Cheap Planter a Makeover

Give a Cheap Planter a Makeover The base for this upcycled planter is something that you can buy from the garden store. They are quite cheap, but they don't exactly look nice and unique. What you can do is give them a makeover using lovely yarn. Other materials to consider are rope and leather.

Use a Wood Slice

Use a Wood Slice A wood slice, if balanced correctly, can be a great pedestal for several pots of plants. You can make something similar with the help of a power drill, several strips of thick leather, and of course, a thick wood slice. If you can't find leather strips, thick rope would do.

Gather Some Kitchen Utensils

Gather Some Kitchen Utensils Won't this be great for the area outside your kitchen? You can make your own by screwing three ladles to a wooden dowel. Make sure that one end of the wooden dowel has an eyelet screw for hanging. The bowl part of the ladle is for planting succulents and other small plants.

Aren't these DIY hanging planters beautiful? They cover a wide range of interior styles, too, from modern to somewhat shabby chic. Which one is your favorite?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

It looks like most of these pots don't have draining holes at the bottom, which you need if you're planting succulents. The water has to drain out otherwise you're drowning the plant roots which can cause them to rot and die.

Doesn't seem so practical:(
