Make your own Boot Planter
There is one thing that gets me really excited! When I can make something from what I already have and not have to spend any money– that’s a pretty great feeling!
If you have any rubber boots or ‘wellies’ at your house, they will eventually crack if they are put to the test like ours are! And cracked rubber boots are no good, right? Let’s put them to use! My hens & chicks succulent (that multiply profusely) love these planters. Last year I also added violets to the top portion of another pair I made. They also do well.
Just cut the boot to the height you want your planter, drill holes in the sole, and cut out a section of the top of the foot and you’re done! Add soil and plants!
It’s a great way to add country charm to your front step, and it didn’t cost a dime!
Love it
I’m so glad its such a fun project and looks just beautiful. Thank you for following 🙂 Let us know if you have things you want to see us make 🙂
Laura, this is a fab idea 🙂 I have a pair of old boots that I know how to repuprose now! I like the uniqueness and thriftiness of this project. Thank you! And, thank you for joining in our gardening pin party… hope to see you again this week!
