-------- ------------ --------------------------------
32 oz Empty plastic drink bottles
2 sm Plants -- up to 3
Artificial flowers or bugs
Stick
sm Stones
Potting soil
Soak the bottle in very warm water for a few minutes. Then empty it,
pull off the colored bottom part and peel off the label. Clean the
glue out of the bottom part. Put a layer of small rocks in the bottom
part. Put potting soil over the rocks and then put in your plants. Be
sure to press the roots of the plants down. Add more soil around your
plants to fill the planter. Arrange pretty stones, tiny sticks, or
tiny toy animals around the plants. Use a sharp knife to cut the top
off the clear part of the bottle (about 4" from the cap). Turn the
clear part upside down. Slip the cut edges into the planter to make a
dome top. You can glue an artificial flower or bug to the dome for
decoration.
