The Many Trash To Treasure Garden Ideas You Can Use

By Linda Ruiz


If you are someone that spends a lot of time in their garden making things look beautiful then you are going to love these unique ideas. Many people would never even think of trash to treasure garden ideas. When I mean when I say trash to treasure is that you can use things that you would normally throw away to make your garden unique and beautiful.

Old car tires are a great way to turn your trash into a treasure. Just use an old tire and plant something beautiful in it. You can even use several tires if you have them and stack them however you want and plant something in each one. You will be surprised at just how gorgeous a tire can make a plant or flower planted in it look amazing.

You can use an old watering can to plant flowers in. The older and more beat up the watering tin is the better it will look, it will have a rustic look to it and the plants you put in it will even start to grow out through the spout of the tin. An old bicycle is also a great thing to use too. You can use the tires from the bike or use the entire bike.

When using a bike you should consider planting something that has vines like an ivy plant. You just put the old bike in the middle and the vines will grow up the bike and wrap around the different parts of the bike. You should try to find an old bike that is rustic looking instead of using a new one because it looks much better. Your friends will be green with envy when they see the different things you have done with all your old items.

When you are trying to come up with your own unique ideas all you have to do is look around your home, shed or garage and find things that you haven't used in years. Just envision what the item would look like with plants and flowers growing around it or in it. The kitchen is a great place to find items for your garden. You can use an old tea kettle or a carafe from your coffee maker.

Do you have any old rain boots lying around? If you do they look amazing with flowers growing out of them especially if you use several of them in different colors. You can also use an old mailbox or even an old ceramic bathtub. I know you probably think this all sounds a little eccentric but it really will transform your ordinary garden into something spectacular.

An old ceramic pot from your kitchen also looks beautiful with a plant in it. You don't want to use new items the whole idea is to use things that would normally be trash, and you just use it for something else instead of throwing it out. You can also paint some of these items to make them more appealing.

You probably have a lot of stuff in your house that you could use to plant in and you probably don't even realize it. Before you throw something out, look at it and think how it would look with a plant or flower in it.
