Make awesome planters from recycled materials

After emptying those small mineral water or soda bottles, think twice before discarding them because there is a lot you can do with them.

You can recycle planters from them and decorate your compound.

Yes, this is a real and possible thing.

Spark your Do It Yourself spirit with a simple project that turns these bottles into useful and appealing outdoor planters for your garden.

You can simply get the empty water bottle add a water plant, such as a lucky bamboo before filling it with water.

After, if you have a rock garden, get those bottles and place them in any corner from where they will serve their decorative purpose better.

Once in a while, you can take these plants inside your house.

Away from that, if you can invest a little more time, here are some simple step-by-step instructions to make colourful water bottle planters:

Cut the bottom third of the bottle.

Paint the bottle white or any colour of your choice.

Use parts of the rest of the bottle to cut out ears.

Draw a face and other features on the bottle.

Fill the bottle with soil and a plant.

Meanwhile, when it comes to watering your plants, you can use plastic bottle watering cans.

Make sure you remove the label and drill or punch some holes in the cap, then you are good to go.
