Indoor plants will never go out of style, but their planters might. Minimal and rustic design planters in stone, wood or brass are currently trending. While this is a style I love, it could change at any time. That’s why it’s reassuring to know that you can dress up a container yourself and turn it into a planter, for much less.

You can make any jar or container into a planter simply by adding soil. Make sure it’s large enough to hold and grow the plant of your choice. However, if you want an affordable take on a look that’s trending, try painting your own tin can. It’s really that simple! See this tutorial from The Crafted Sparrow for more details on how you can complete this project.
