Tiny Stenciled Seed Starter Cups

I've seen these cute little natural fiber pots from the dollar store used in many ways on Pinterest. 


Today I'm going to stencil some with one of my favorite rustic crate stencils and then I'll give them a handle like a tiny bucket. 


For now I'm filling the pots with moss and flowers but when I'm ready to plant my garden they will be perfect to fill with soil and seeds! 


Take a peek...

So a package of about 10 of these natural fiber seed starter pots was $1.25 at the Dollar Tree.

First, I used the small shipping crate stencil from Old Sign Stencils and used black craft paint to give each pot a little part of the stencil.  There are several crate stencils available at Old Sign Stencils you'll want to use on many projects!

I gave each tiny pot a handle using about 6" of rebar wire. The pots are soft and the wire goes right through the sides.

I filled the pots with several different kinds of moss and little sprigs of faux flowers.

They look adorable and make an adorable Spring decoration that is inexpensive and easy to make! And bonus... you can use them again to actually start seeds this Spring!
