Life On The Balcony has come up with another stellar idea for pallets. She made a pallet into a mini garden and put it on her balcony! Great idea for aparment and condo dwellers! So cool. I wonder if these could work for an herb garden? At any rate, check this one out!!!
Just So Lovely has a great tutorial on how to build your own window boxes and how to install them! Windows boxes bring a lot of curb appeal to a home! I love seeing window boxes full of lush greenery or brightly colored flowers.
Two Friends. Two Cities. built these above the ground planter/garden boxes on wheels. They can move them around in different shapes to create different looks or move them to new locations quite easily - even when they are full of dirt! What an awesome idea.
Don't throw away that cake container that came with the cake you bought from the store. Keep it and turn it into a planter for the flowers on your front porch! Cheap, easy, "green" and cute. That's what Choose To Thrive does!
Make an EASY tiered planter garden perfect for herbs or flowers or something else. Whenever I've tried planting herbs in my regular garden, they get stomped on or eaten by the deer. This might be the solution to that problem. White Water Crafting shows you how!
With Spring planting time here, you may want to consider making a potting bench. Not only are these adorable, but they can be a cute outdoor decor item for porches and yards! Backwoods Cottage shares a two-part post about how to build one.
Just like Nothing But Country, we planted some "magic jelly beans" the night before Easter. We didn't have this cute FREE downloadable jellybean packet from Nothing But Country. I'm adding it to our new tradition.
The next morning, the kids walked out to the dirt where we planted the jellybeans and there stood some giant lollipops. I bought the lollipops at Walgreens for $1 (I think.) The kids were amazed.
What's NOT to love about this picture at Lilliedale. It is absolutley fabulous!!! The eggshell planters, the butterfly labels and the cute, little bunting! What a fun gift or decor item! So springy and fun! 
Use newspaper (or other paper) to make planters for seeds. The thing I like about this idea is that you don't have to take the plant out of the newspaper when you bury it in the ground. The newspaper will dissolve! See this at Cottage Hill.
Use an ice cube tray as a place to plant those seeds until the weather gets warmer and plants get bigger. See this and other spring planting ideas at Silly Simple.
