This year I plan on having as many window box planters as I can possibly afford. Window boxes can be quite expensive. The amount of time and money spend on each window box can add up to hundreds of dollars in the end. There are multiple ways a person can be frugal and still have beautiful blooms.
A decorative planter can be made out of nearly any type of material. Plastic and wood are quite popular options used as a base for an arrangement. Other ideas can be as simply as a recycled food container or an antique mental container. Recycled and older containers can easily be spruced up with a little paint or embellishments. Surprisingly, these small touches can make the used container look like a high end planter. A person’s neighbors will never know the difference once you fill these planters with some beautiful blooms. What the neighbors will be looking at is the color and density of what is in the boxes. No doubt you will receive compliments and even be asked perhaps how your container was constructed.
