Fall Planters From Recycled Tomato Cans

by Ana illausky

This craft project is super easy and yet still you are recycling!

fall planters from recycled tomato cans, crafts, gardening, repurposing upcycling, seasonal holiday decor

I wanted a 2 toned look of rust color and gold. I took my can and spray painted rust color first.Then after dry I dust painted with gold metallic spray paint.Dry.

Take a drill and drill a hole in the bottom of the can {If not a drill you can use a hammer and a nail for hole}.

Fill cans with pebbles or rocks for good drainage and weight for your pots.Add flowers.For added decoration I used burlap ribbon, then I stencil the letters FALL unto the fronts.

After dry fill cans with flowers water and enjoy! {plastic clear drainage planter tray were added to the bottoms to help with flowers and draining stains.}

Love this look in place of a flower box,on the shelf of my new garden cottage.
