Are broken flower pots really useless waste? We show you some examples of how you can reuse them.
There hasn’t been a gardener who hasn’t had a minor “accident” or two. If you work with fragile flower pots, this is no wonder. It slips out of your hands, you push it down with our elbow, or it is simply knocked over by the family’s beloved cat or dog. Annoyed, you pick up the pieces to throw them in the trash.
But is a broken flower pot really useless waste? Well, hopefully not! Why not make something whole again from the pieces? Let’s say a unique ornament that is both useful and beautiful?
It is useful, because you can easily grow small plants in the torso. For example, rock garden perennials, mosses, succulents (including the very popular houseleek), as well as dwarf evergreens and even bonsai.
And it’s also beautiful, because you can complete the overall picture with decorative accessories. You can use pebbles, small stones, miniature ceramic ornaments.
So don’t hold back your imagination, let your creativity soar. As inspiration, here are some creative solutions for tiny fairy gardens built from pieces of flower pots!
