Being tough and waterproof, old truck tyres make great planting pots that will blend into your garden surprisingly well.
These pots are from 100% recycled material and come in various sizes, some large enough to house trees. They're put together by hand, and I quite like the fact that the individual tread marks, metal button and hand stitching make each planter a unique garden feature. And just think of the distance they've travelled to get to your veggie patch!
A range of sizes is available here, with prices starting at £16.99
Found this site! Shoes out of old car tires. Old news right? But these shoes are really cute! And they have lines for Men, Women and Kids!
