I found this rusty wheel hub in the bushland close to where we live. Decided to take it home and make a planter out of it.
First I line the bottom of the old hub with some shade cloth to prevent the potting mix falling through. Then I added the potting mix. Some cuttings of succulents from our garden plus a couple of new ones and topped it off with gravel. Succulents just seem the perfect companion to this rusty freebie!
Suggested materials:
  • Shade cloth to line   (already had but can buy in hardware store)
  • Potting mix   (hardware store/nursery)
  • Succulents   (plant nursery)
