Herb Planter Tin Can Crafts

Old soup cans become beautiful planters when you follow the step-by-step instructions for how to make these DIY planters. Soup can crafts are a great way to recycle waste while still making a useful final project. Lovely and perfect for your windowsill, these planters help keep herbs alive, allowing you to add fresh taste to all your summer snacks. The Herb Planter Tin Can Crafts are adorned with charming, buggy decals but you could easily decorate them to your liking with other mod podge craft ideas and accents.

In the Designer's Words: "These gorgeous tin can herb planters are really easy to make and look fantastic in your garden with these vintage insect images. The herb planters are really convenient too as they can be taken into the kitchen one by one as needed. They also cost very little to make as you are upcycling old tin cans. The herb planters look great in my garden and are really handy as they are very easily transported into the kitchen, for cooking or cocktails. If you go to my blog you will see how I upcycled an old window to display these herb planters in the garden."
