I was trying to think of some fun containers for more succulents. So I went to the thrift store and came across some vintage baking tins. They cost from $.50-$1.50. I purchased succulents from my local garden shop. They ranged from $2- $4 per container. The contrast of the greens of the plants with the aged metal of the baking tins really work well together.
I drilled holes in the tins for drainage.
These succulents were a great idea for the muffin tins. I could pull them apart and I've got 4 plants from each pot. So in essence, $1/plant.
I added some little pebbles over the soil. Looks great, doesn't it?
For the jelly roll tin, I bought an assortment of succulents and just planted them throughout. I allowed a bit of space for growth.
Again, add some decorative pebbles and it looks quite charming. For the jelly roll pan, you could put a candle in the middle and that would make a fun centerpiece. Or even a bigger planted pot in the middle. It's fun to think what containers can be reused and repurposed for creative purposes. What can you come up with?
