We love having planters and flower pots around our home to bring in lots of greenery and beauty to our indoor and outdoor spaces.
But there are lots of creative ways to use your pretty planters that don’t involve putting plants in them.
Here Are 10 Creative Uses For Garden Planters And Flower Pots:
1) Use It Poolside For Towels
Need an inexpensive way to store your pool towels? Use a planter. It will keep them organized and neat. It also will look like a far more expensive container than most of the ones you see on pool decks.
2) S’mores Grill
You don’t need a fire pit to make S’mores. Just pop some charcoal into a large or small terra cotta planter and use some lighter fluid to get your mallow toasting flame going. Get all the details on how to do it here.
3) Beverage Cooler
Instead of using an unsightly tub to house your beverages and ice, use a planter. It gives off a higher-end look. It’s also portable so you can bring it poolside or near the grill, just make sure it isn’t too heavy before you try to pick it up!
4) Bathroom Organizers
You can paint flower pots to perfectly match your bathroom decor. Fill them with Q-tips, cotton balls, and other items. They will look nice, match your bathroom, and keep it organized.
5) Side Table
This idea is brilliant! If you have a planter that you’re absolutely in love with, toss a glass top or wooden piece over it. It can be turned into an instant table.
6) Beverage Drink Dispenser Stand
If you don’t have a stand for these things you have to hang them off the side of the table and that’s just asking for an accident. Instead, make a beverage dispenser stand from a flower pot and saucer. Glue the upsidedown saucer to the bottom of the planter and place your dispenser on top of it.
7) House Numbers
Want your house numbers to stand out? Use some garden planters. Create your unique house number display by gluing one or several numbers on each planter. You can put flowers in it, place lights inside of it, or both.
8) Condiment Station
Keep your condiments, napkins, and utensils organized and in one place with flower pots. It’s a lot nicer looking than just tossing them on the table. You can also paint or decorate them so they’ll be festive.
9) Clay Pot Smoker
Why buy an expensive smoker when you can make one from a clay pot? Apparently, you can cook an entire chicken on this thing. Learn how to make one here.
10) Mini Fire Pit
Flowerpot fire pits are the prettiest fire pits. Fill one with rocks and a chafing fuel container to give yourself a little outdoor lighting. Get all the details here.
