A few months ago, I found this Easter basket at a yard sale for $3. I think it was meant to be a porch decoration, but I bought it with the intention of making it into a planter.
I started by removing the BIG bow with some tin snips; then used a bronze color, metallic spray paint.
I had a husk liner from an old hanging planter but had to buy three moss sheets from Dollar Tree and the plant.
Â
I lined the outside with the moss sheets.
Then inserted the husk liner.
I “potted” the plant, then used some leftover dried moss to cover the top.
AND…Voila! From Easter basket to chic planter!
Planter- $3
Spray Paint– Leftover
Moss sheets- $3
Husk Liner- Reused
Moss- Leftover
Plant- $2.50
Grand Total= $8.50
Always be on the lookout for something you can change to fit your taste!!
