Thrift Flips

 

This thrift flip is actually a garage sale flip.  Years ago I picked up several old granite wear pots at a garage sale, all had rusty areas on the bottoms and I knew these would not be good for reselling.  I turned them into planters.  

In the bottoms of each pot I punched drainage hole through the rusted areas.  I place broke pieces of terra cotta pots over each hole then filled the pots with a good quality potting soil.  

Once I filled the pot I then planted my flowers in each pot.  The larger pots have petunias and large snapdragons I bought on clearance at the store last month.  My small pot I planted petunias as well.  

I really like repurposing old pots or any old vessel into a planter.  In the larger pot you could plant a vegetable in it too.  I think my pots are to small of tomato plant.  I have planted herbs in the larger pots before.
