Prescription Planters

I love my dog, Peat.

Peat, an epileptic weimaraner, goes through prescription bottles like I go through La Croix. Every time we refill his prescriptions, they seem to come in different containers...and this round delivered these pretty little squat orange bottles. Now it just so happens that I have an ever increasing interest in propigating my plants, and find myself in need of small planters quite frequently. To make it short and sweet...the moral of the story is:

When life gives you an epileptic weimaraner...turn around and make prescription planters!



Materials:
- old prescription bottles (on hand)
- assorted yarn or embroidary floss
- pretty ribbon
- twine
- felt
- hot glue gun

This little project didn't take very long, and actually would have taken less time if I decorated the bottles before I did the plantings...but I didn't want soil to get all over the decorations so I opted to carefully work with my plants already settled in.

I love my little prescription planters! They're practical, cute, and remind me of Peat-o-weim every time I look at them. That's a win-win!

Have a lovely day!
