How to recycle shoes for planters
1. Make several holes in the soles of an old shoe for the water to drain. If the shoe is old and the sole of the shoe has holes, make sure the water can drain if you decide to hang the shoe on the wall, door or fence.2. Decide if you want to leave the shoe lace for decoration. You can use shoe lace for making a loop for hanging the shoe on the wall or fence.
3. Fill the shoe with moist potting soil.
4. Plant flowers in the soil in the shoe, patting down the soil.
5. Place the shoe in the garden, on porch or fence, selecting an area that best suits the type of plants you want to grow in the shoe. Some plants need full sunshine, while others need partial shade.
6. Water the soil in the shoe planter according to the needs of plants you added to the shoe.
