Coffee Can Planter
Mon, Jan 30 2012 at 1:15 PM

I had a left over coffee can and I always save my favorite pictures off the calendars I get. I have a few herbs I keep indoors and I wanted to consolidate them into one container, so I used the coffee can and commbined my herbs and I taped my picture around the container. Mine wasn't long enough to go all the way around but a portion of the container faces the wall anyway. It looks totally professional. I did it to a few other planters I have but it doesn't have the same affect. I just thought I'd share my idea. I felt it was "green" and I was able to save money by not buying a plastic one. I wish I could paste a picture, it looks very good. I was impressed with my skills. Hope others can use this idea!
