Repurposed Pumpkin Planter
Usually when I find a vintage bundt pan I think
of only one thing.
Tiered trays... and you can read about them by visiting this story.
I usually make and sell a whole bunch of them every year.
This time it's different, It is Fall and I'm thinking pumpkin!
I began by attaching this old bundt pan upside down to a piece of driftwood.
As you're reading through this post please pay attention to the bold blue links that will take you to more information and the products I used for this project. Also the READ MORE sections will take you to related Homeroad projects.
I had a large wooden circular piece in my workshop, I dropped it inside the hole then using glue and a screw attached it to the driftwood.
The old iron on top is to hold it down until the waterproof glue dried. It's one of my favorite weights!
I covered the driftwood with paper then brought it outside to spray paint.
When the paint was dry I realized the large hole in the center was the perfect place to plant something.
And so I did.
I filled the hole with dirt, it already had drainage at the bottom, then dropped in a small flowering plant.
I added a thick piece of wooden vine that I had from another project and stuck it into the dirt for a stem.
It made a great outdoor (or indoor) Fall planter!
