  Good point! I think the tutorial (linked to in the blog post) mentions not to use a metal that will rust – does such a thing exist?

  Thanks for the comment(s)! :) I have to screen them before they post because I get about 10 spam comments to one legit comment!

  The cool part about succulent plants is that they need absolute minimal water (like a cactus). So, rusting shouldn’t be much of an issue if you water appropriately.

  I think I’ll try this one for my office.

  Love it…aluminum wouldn’t rust…plus you could line it with plastic from a garbage bag or a used ziploc freezer bag…I’ve done that with wooden planters.

  What a great idea – and a neat idea for a blog, since so many of us love the dollar store :0)
