With limited space but a desire to have plants and flowers, it can be difficult to find creative ways to get what you want without making things crowded and uncomfortable. Hanging planters have begun to come back in style and they’re a great option for people with a green thumb and little room to grow things. Here are some great ideas for you to try out and get a beautiful hanging planter all your own.
Mason Jars
This design is great because of its vast customizability. You can use lace, rope, wire, colorful string, or whatever else you’d like to hang mason jars around the home or patio. Just fill the jar with a little bit of soil, put the plant inside it, and create a beautiful hanging planter arrangement wherever you want.
Pots and Strings
The best thing about this idea is that you probably have all the supplies already! Don’t just set your pots on tables or the ground; get creative and hang them from the ceiling! You can group the pots together or set them apart from each other to create just the right feel for your home!
Bottles
You can’t even tell this design is made from 2-liter bottles! Simple make a fun and precise cut at whatever angle you want, paint the bottle, and then hang the newly made planter! The fun, vibrant colors make for great decoration while simultaneously allowing you to display the flowers you want!
Fish Bowl
Repurpose an old fish bowl and make it into a fun hanging planter! The best part about this design is that the bowl is clear so you can make a show out of both the colorful flower and the way you arrange the rocks and soil!
Cake Form
If you don’t like cake, don’t throw your form away; use it to make a hanging planter! You can paint the form to better match your home or yard, or simply leave it the way it is and let the planter speak for itself!
Tin Cans
This is a fun and simple idea to add some style and flowers to wherever you want. Paint the cans bright, vibrant colors to make your yard pop! You can use as few or as many as you want and hang that at varying heights to add an edge to your decorations.
Hats
Let’s be honest: we all know someone who has that one hat that they just can’t bear getting rid of. Help them repurpose it by turning it into a great hanging planter! Nearly any hat will do, and you can plug up any of the rips or holes quite easily.
Chandelier
This is a great idea! Take a chandelier, replace the lights with plants, and hang it up outside to make for a great planter! A fresh coat of bright paint can make this decoration even better and turn your yard into the talk of the town.
Purses
There never seems to be an end to the supply of purses that some people can collect. Repurpose them into a great planter that can remind you of all the great shopping experiences you had with each purse! The fun design and colors of the purses really add a splash of personality to any backyard area.
Ties
If women have too many purses, then guys definitely have too many ties. Find a few of the old ones and turn them into planters. This idea is also great for a Fathers’ Day present; just make sure not to choose his favorite tie!
Shoes
While we’re on the topic of repurposing clothes, how about using old shoes as an awesome hanging planter idea! With all the different sizes, shapes, and colors, shoes can make a great way to add style to your yard without much time or money.
Teapots
Whether you just have one or a ton, a teapot can make a great hanging planter. Fill the pot with soil, stick your flower in there, and arrange the decoration however you’d like to make it as creative and attractive as possible!
