Western Boot Planters

Western boots are super cool, and when the time comes to recycle them, there are a lot of options – some are easier than others.

The easiest way to use a favorite boot that will never fit you again is to clean it up, paint it, and turn it into a flower holder. You can put a water filled vase inside the boot to display fresh flowers, which isn’t necessary if you are a lover of dried or silk flowers.

Old boots also make for cool planters. If you opt for the cool planters, don’t forget to make sure the boot has good drainage. If it already has holes in the sole, no worries. But if the boot is still in good shape, you’ll need to drill a drainage hole in the bottom.

Cool Crock Planters

Got some crocks that you no longer wear or that have lost their tread?

Crocs make great little planters. They have great drainage and they are easy to hang! Fill them with potting soil and plant flowers, hen and chicks or other sedums. If you are worried about the soil falling out through the holes, cover the inside with a piece of burlap. Keep them well watered and voila!

What a great way to grow a little mint garden, or maybe some small herbs like thyme…

Here are some more great ideas:

How fun! I wonder if I have crocks in my closet…
