Plants and containers

Hello dear readers

There were these plastic chess pieces in my stash asking to be turned into "treasures".  A long time ago I used some to make cake holders (If I find the photos I'll show them.)  Together with these metal bead covers I made plant containers and rather like the results.  I remembered seeing something similar made of wooden pieces so the idea is not entirely mine.



This is how they look glued together



And this is how they look after I painted them white all over.  Ready to receive plants.












The geraniums I like best.




I wish you all a lovely weekend and blessings.

  1. Brilliant find. Simple but very effective. I love your geraniums. I am battling a geranium myself at the moment and find it very difficult. Any wisdom to share on the matter of geraniums is deeply appreciated.

  3. Al final todas echamos mano de los tesoros que hemos guardado para convertirlos en tesoros aún mejores. Yo también tengo guardadas piezas de distintos materiales para peanas.
    Te han quedado fabulosos. Unas plantas muy lindas.

  17. Que cosa tan divina, me encantan esa plantitas con su maceta con pie. Jajajaja y yo que cuando vi que les ponías aquel adorno a las piezas de ajedrez pense que ibas a hacer un ajedrez mas sofisticado . Nada me gustan mil veces mas como columnas con una maceta en su parte superior y una hermosa planta.
    Besote!!!!!
