Make a Jeweled Planter

Here's another great use for those flat decorative marbles. I love the colors used in this dreamy jeweled planter by Centsational Girl. These are a great way to glam up your patio, but I think they would also be fantastic for wedding decorations or centerpieces, or as decor for a baby or wedding shower. They would even be fun for a little girl tea party or princess party. Really, you can adapt them for a ton of uses just by switching out the paint and marble colors.

Project Estimate:

Terra cotta planter, $1
Outdoor spray paint, $3 or on hand
Glass marbles (with flat side), $1
Silicone rubber sealant from hardware store to adhere marbles, $3.23

Total: $5.23 plus $1 for each additional planter

If you’re considering this for a party, maybe serve these Springy Flower Pot Desserts in a small plastic container tucked inside (easy clean-up for one good reason, plus you don’t want to mix food and something you recently painted, ya know?)
