Introduction
It’s spring, which means it’s time to get outside and start planting. If you’re planning on adding flowers to your garden, why not try something new? Here are seven fun flower pots that are also dirt cheap:
Clay flower pots.
Clay flower pots are a great option if you’re looking for a durable, long-lasting and inexpensive flower pot. Clay flower pots can be purchased in just about any color or style you can think of; they are available in many shapes and sizes as well. Clay pots will last longer than plastic pots, but they cannot be painted or coated with any other material—they must be left in their natural state.
Ceramic flower pots.
Ceramic pots are sturdy, cheap, and easy to find. They come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors. They are also easy to clean, stack and move around. If you want to buy some ceramic flower pots, here is what you will need:
- A ceramic pot (or two)
- A small spoon or other digging tool
- Something with which to water the plant
Galvanized metal flower pots.
Galvanized metal is a good choice for flower pots because it’s cheap, lightweight, easy to clean and durable. Galvanized metal can also be found in many colors including black, blue and red.
If you’re looking to save even more money on your flower pots, consider using recycled materials like these plastic soda bottles!
Muffin tins.
One of the easiest ways to make a cute flower pot is by using a muffin tin. You can use it for other things as well, but I will only focus on how you can use it to create pots for your plants.
The first thing that comes to mind when thinking about using a muffin tin as a pot is making succulent planters! It’s very easy because all you need to do is bring some soil and stones together in the form of small balls, which then go into the wells of your tins. Then add your succulents or cacti and voila! You have yourself a beautiful little succulent garden in just seconds!
Another option would be using this idea for growing herbs or flowers—but here’s where we run into some issues: most herbs wouldn’t work well with this method because they require lots of sunlight, but there are some exceptions such as mint (it grows very quickly!). However if you want something that stays short so that it doesn’t take up too much room on your countertop (and maybe even looks nice), then rosemary would probably be good since its leaves are pretty flat; not much space needed here at all! Also don’t forget about those pretty blue flowers from above…these will provide color during those cold winter months when nothing else seems alive outside anymore 😉
Last but not least—you could always try planting something like radishes or carrots inside one of these stainless steel containers; although they may not grow fast enough due to lack of sunlight coming through those metal walls 🙂
Wire baskets.
Wire baskets are a great way to add some color and style to your garden. They can be easily found and purchased at many stores, but if you have time, it’s also easy to make your own wire basket. Wire baskets come in many different sizes, but they’re perfect for small plants like succulents or herbs. You can hang them from the side of a house or place them on the ground as an accent piece in your garden.
Old boots or shoes.
Old boots or shoes are another great option for creating your own flower pots. You can simply decorate the shoe with some paint, or you can create something different entirely. For instance, you could use old boots to grow succulents in them and hang them up as decoration. Alternatively, if you’re looking for a way to showcase your favorite flowers but don’t want to use a traditional flower pot, old shoes are a perfect choice!
Dixie cup bouquets.
Dixie cup bouquets are one of the easiest, quickest and cheapest projects you can make.
Dixie cups are cheap and easy to find. They come in a wide range of colors, so you can use them for any occasion or color scheme. If you’re looking for something fun and colorful, dixie cups are a great choice!
With a little imagination, you can turn almost anything into a planter for your garden!
With a little imagination, you can turn almost anything into a planter for your garden. Here are some of the options you have when it comes to cheap flower pots:
- Ceramic Flower Pots
- Clay Flower Pots (Terra Cotta)
- Glass & Metal Planters/Containers
In addition to choosing the right material for your planter, there are other important things to consider when selecting the right pot. It’s important that you choose a pot that is large enough to hold all of the plants or seeds that you want in it. You also don’t want to choose one that is too large because this will mean watering more often and may result in over watering your plants which could lead them being sickly or even dead! Try finding a size that fits well between these two extremes so as not waste any space within its confines while still maintaining healthiness among those growing within their confines…
Conclusion
