File Organizer turned Planter
I found this wire, hanging file organizer at TJMaxx and knew exactly what I would use it for the minute I spotted it.
The outside of our log home has a dark stain and I though using it as a planter would bring some lighter colors and visual interest into the mix.
I lined each compartment with burlap, a little dirt, and a few flowers and vines.
I really like how it looks, but the plants dry out quickly.
So to solve that problem I hit Target and purchased two of the glass watering globes.
Now I just fill them once a day and let them do the work.

I’ve seen those at TJMaxx and have had them in my cart,then taken it out I don’t know how many times! I love what you did with it, looks really neat!
What a great idea. I would not have thought of that. See, I learned something new.
What an awesome idea Dawn, I love it!!
What a GREAT idea, Dawn. I love it that you thought outside the box and found a whole new use for something…and it fits in there perfectly- xo Diana

Love this look Dawn what a great eye for transformation out of the box. Wine bottles work great for drip watering too and you get to drink the wine first!
Very creative! I love the texture of the flowers, the burlap and the metal.
Beautiful!

Great idea, I had those in my shopping basket but put them back,now I wish I had them. Have you tried the product soil moist, its a petroleum based granule, that expands when it gets wet. I use it in all my burlap or coco liner planters. Come on over and check out my blog barnnumber2.blogspot.com,,,
