Inspiration Wednesdays: Recycled Plastic Bottle Planters



You can make these ideas come to life using materials you can readily fine at home:

  1. Hi, I smiled at that first style. If i will choose, i would rather have a simpler inconspicuous wire so as not to cover the view of the plants inside. The latest Hortic garden show here showed the same bottles also for urban setting. In your last photo, how are they attached to the wall. If done in our very hot climate, the cement will be too hot during the day and watering will be very time consuming. But it is beautiful, i agree!

    1. Thanks, I'm partial to these ideas myself :). I think the bottles in the last photo are suspended by wires. Just a guess.

  2. You can rinse those with fastened superior by squeezing the bottle it underneath clean water, thus it fills 0.5 up within, provides it a shake and you'll get an additional hair wash out of it! Then recycle usually
