UPCYCLE Projects Garden Edition | Trash to Treasure Garden Ideas

Today I am working on a few DIYs for my garden. I didn't want to pay a lot for some pots or containers for my flowers so I just created some out of things I had or items from the thrift store.

Morning Jessica. Love your projects. 🌞💜

All great ideas.
I think I would have skipped drilling some of those and just picked up some cheap plastic planters that would fit inside the metal containers. You could place some small rocks or pea gravel in the bottom of the metal containers and put the plastic planter on top of those for some drainage

Great ideas as usual! Your daughter was so cute digging in dirt in her tiara. Ive got the same little wagon in my garden.
I always love repurposing items. Especially the light globes because my house came with those too and didnt want to throw them away.

[Christie-gpcy]

Great ideas Jessica. Always enjoy your inspiring projects. Your little daughter is a lovely little angel, so sweet! Looking forward to your next video. Blessings <3

Such cute ideas! Remember to wear safety glasses when drilling in metal. Your daughter is precious! Next time I work in my garden I'm wearing a tiara! Perfect! 💚

They all look great. I bought an old doll buggy at a flea market and planted petunias in it. Looks like you have a future gardener there!

I have some extra plastic storage containers from Dollar Tree. I decided I'm using them instead of paying 12.00 for the size of pot I need. Love your ideas.

Hi Jessica,
Great video! I too have use old light fixture globes as planters, but l have mine in some macrame hangers and they have faux plants in them. They hang in the entry way that separates my kitchen from dining room. I just love them so much and everyone that sees them asks if it was light globes l used and of course l tell them “yes”. They always tell me how great of an idea that is, and as humbled as l am, l can’t take credit for it cause l too got the idea from Pinterest. Although l would love to have a stand so l could use one outdoors. Enjoy your videos so much cause you always seem to create such neat things out of other things that would normally get thrown away. Keep making great videos! You Rock!

Such adorable ideas.... I've been trying to use stuff like that myself.. to decorate outside but yet to repurpose things.. Thanks for more ideas..😁👍

You are so clever. I’ve done a few of the same things you did with different items but the hose was cool. Never thought of that. I love how you set them all up on your cute wagon ( really like that wagon). Have two questions. First I wish you continue showing how you made that wooden stand. You didn’t show how you got that last piece of wood ( that’s the half) to attach to the other wood. If you used the nail gun your nail had to go in a angle I would think bcuz you put the metal bar on it to hold all in place. I guess really wasn’t a question. My second I like that table saw you have. I’ve been looking for a small one that would still do the job on small projects. Would you tell me the make n if it’s battery powered or electric? I would greatly appreciate it. Always get excited when I see you have a new video up. I look forward to them. Thanks so much ♥️😊👍😊
