Here’s what you will need: Water bottle, Construction Paper, Markers, String, Hole Punch, Soil and a Plant of Your Choice

Step 1. Cut the water bottle just below the bottom of the label. You will want to keep the end that has the cap on it so you can drain the water inside if needed.

Step 2. Decorate your water bottle planter. You can get creative here! Try wrapping with construction paper and decorating with stickers or markers. If you have the time you could even paint them!

Step 3. Take your hole punch and make a hole below the top rim. Add a string through the hole to provide a hanger for your planter.

Step 4. Add your soil and your plant of choice. Now you can hang it up and enjoy!

Don’t forget to water your plant as needed!
