Suitcase Planters

Old hard suitcases work well as planters. Drill a few holes for drainage in the bottom and lay small rocks over them then fill with dirt and plant. Also, try closing the lid and cutting a space in the top for a plant to grow out of instead of just leaving it open.

RE: Suitcase Planters

I plant in an old men's work boot or hi-to sneaker or other style. Instead of filling the shoe with dirt, set a 4" or 6" pot with a flower in it inside the top of the boot. Looks Great! The leather boot ages well in the garden so I leave it out rain & shine, water just runs through.
