TRASH TO TREASURE:



 Here i come up with an another trash to treasure post.
In this post i would like to reuse old and broken tea cups into planters. Instead of trashing them and they end up in the landfill. Lets RECYCLE and REUSE them and give them a new life. I am sure every household has such unused coffee/tea cups lying in our homes.
All we need is cups and plant of your choice, preferably smaller plants. 

I choose to plant snake plant babies in two of the cups and cactus in the other one. As i want to use them indoor i selected these two house plants.
Snake plant
cactus plant
TIPS:
**One important thing to consider is these cups doesn't have any drainage holes, So be little conscious while watering. Always touch and check the top soil, and only if the soil is dry then add very little water to the plant. As these plants are kept indoor the water requirement will be less too.
**Always choose the plant which fits the size of your cup/vase.
**Re pot them when these plants outgrow.
**These can be added to your coffee tables, mantles and office spaces.
**Always consider indirect lighting spot for these plants.
**Such small planters are great for propagating.





happy gardening
