How to Make It:

  1. Find two plastic tubs that are the same size.

  2. Set a tub on the less colorful side of a large piece of fabric. Trace around it onto the fabric. Measure the height of the tub and add two inches to that. Enlarge the circle by that amount on all sides.

  3. Cut out the large circle. Set the tub in the center. Fold the edges of the fabric up and into the tub.

  4. Place the other tub into the fabric-covered tub. Staple the sides of the tubs together.

  5. Put pebbles in the bottom of the planter for drainage. Add soil and a plant.
