Revive and reuse cracked or chipped teacups, pots and bowls by transforming them into planters for a windowsill garden.
Patterned dishware, colored ceramics and uniquely shaped containers that are chipped or damaged can be cherished again, this time, showcasing your spring plants.
New and repotted plants need extra care. Coddle them in their new teacup
containers by creating a "greenhouse" that keeps warmth and moisture inside. Place a gallon-size Ziploc® Brand Easy Zipper Expandable Bottom Storage Bag with Fresh SHIELD™ over the planter to allow adequate room for the cup as well as plant growth. Zip closed, leaving a small opening to ventilate. Remove bag once the roots have taken hold and the plant appears hearty and healthy.
Place saucers under the cups—even mismatched ones—to catch loose soil or water drips and to display multiple plants on a sunny windowsill. Soon you’ll have fresh herbs, fragrant flowers or spring vegetables right at your fingertips.
