Turn 5 left over tiles into this cute planter.
You always buy to many tiles right? You never know how many you need for your project or some might break. After tiling my fireplace I had half a box of these lovely patterned tiles left over, I could have tiled a coffee table top but I thought maybe there is something more original I could make and then I thought of making this cute planter!


Only thing you need are 5 tiles, all the same size, and a bit of glue. My tiles are from Topps Tiles, the Moroccan design looks great with this tall succulent but it would look equally nice with a cactus or a fern.
Have a look at my short video to see how easy it is to make your own
The tiles I used are 10 cm wide, the perfect size for a small plant but you can use any sized tiles you have lying around. Like I said in the video you can even make a large version for your garden if you use concrete pavers. Just drill a hole in the bottom and use a very strong adhesive.
What kind of tiles would you use for your planter? Would you use a pattern or go for a plain colour?
Suggested materials:
