I want to share these great containers with you. Thea had this great idea of using milk cartons or orange juice cartons as planters instead of sending them to the dump. They are wonderful. Take your empty carton and cut the bottom off to the height you want your planter to be.
Then using chalkboard spray paint, in a well ventilated place spray them. you can do the inside or not. I prefer to not paint the inside of the container. Let dry and use chalk to label the outside of the container. This same idea could be used to separate toy on shelves in a child room or in a craft room or art supplies. the containers are quite sturdy. Feel free to let your mind wonder and see how these containers may fit into your life and keep them out of your local landfill.
You can make a planter out of almost any container. Wood, wicker, metal baskets get a simple waterproof container inside to keep your counters dry and easy to move from place to place. I see this again for art and craft supplies or even makeup. I just love this Idea don't you?
