How To Turn A Pallet Into A Planter

Hi friends!

Hope you’re all staying home and well. The pandemic is still here and I don’t think it’s going anytime soon so I’ve picked up a new hobby and found myself in an entanglement with plants lately that I ended up turning my old wooden pallets into a planter instead of buying different pots or new $50 planters.

If you have any pallets lying around your house, here’s a super cute way to turn them into a planter. Or if you don’t have any, I found mine for $5 each at this app called let go and they’re so worth it!

Enjoy and let me know what you guys think!

XO,

Travel With Rove x Petals N’ Wings

Last Sunday, I went to Clairmont Farmers’ Market for the first time and I fell in love with how dainty this little city is and how lovely everyone is in the market place. The first thing I saw was the little sunflower shop (which if you didn’t know, I’m obsessed with sunflowers – I’m led to believe that they are my favorite flowers, I once drove across the state just to see them bloom – yet once I got there, they were dead) Anyways, these sunflowers were painted and colorful!!! I was sooooo in love!

I also fell in love with my new watch from Rove Watch. I am obsessed with their Bella White Watch, as it is light, delicate and even more gorgeous in person. I love the white strap as it goes with mostly everything and the gold finishing. I plan to take this watch with me every where I go especially to my next travel destinations.

After going through the farmers’ market, my boyfriend took me to Petals N’ Wings. They have the cutest garden filled with succulents, cactuses and garden accessories. Every corner was insta worthy or another cute plant ready to inspire you and make you smile.

What do you think about this nursery? Did you fall in love with it as much as I did? I also plan to do more some travel blogs and start locally like this one. Penny for your thoughts?

DIY: HOW TO MAKE SELF WATERING PLANTS

Are you a plant killer like me? If so, I have just the perfect DIY for you.

Dont know what to do with old plastic bottles? Instead of throwing them away, which could pollute the oceans, why not be crafty with these DIY self watering planters?

The concept is very simple: the string sucks the water up from the bottom portion of the planter to the top part.

Here’s a step by step on how to make one.

  1. THINGS YOU’LL NEED.

2. Cut the water bottle in half – measuring the height of your plant and how much room it needs to be able to support it and poke a hole on the cap.and

3. Cut string or really thick thread (like yarn) and make it go through the whole, long enough to reach the water and long enough to reach the soil of the plant.

4. Add pebbles to have a little bit of weight on the plastic bottle and to keep the string in place.

5. Add the plant of your choice on the top portion and water at the bottom part and stack it up on top of each other. Make sure the cap is closed tightly.

And you’re done!

I know I added some paint on my materials needed – but it’s totally up to you. Feel free to get creative with this!
