Faux Concrete Planter Upcycle

"We generate too much trash - that's all very well to say but what can we DO about it!? Well at the home level, we can choose not to throw away things that we can upcycle. This project is an easy makeover for an ordinary tin can. You can do this one with the kids. All of the products used are non toxic too so it is great for everyone. Planters make great gifts (it is coming up to THAT time of year folks) and they make great craft market sellers too. Absolutely all good!"

NotesHave fun with this one guys and watch out for other things that you can make over - the sky is the limit!
