Flowerbed made of tires

Table of contents

In almost every house and yard there will be things that are no longer good for anything. However, they can get a second chance and be of use to something. This is how I made an original flowerbed. Anyone can do the same.

Materials needed

  • worn tires,
  • tree trunk support,
  • a few nails,
  • piece of thin, formable wire
  • spray paint,
  • very sharp knife.

Execution

  1. The tire should be cut at the first bend so that 1/4 is not touched. It will be needed to unroll it and put it on the trunk.
  2. Make the second cut along the tread, but only 3/4 of the tire should be cut. We do it from both sides.
  3. Then unwrap the entire tread and nail it to the trunk.
  4. We make the front bow from a separate tire, cutting out the part that does not have a tread. We drill holes in the rubber. Then we attach the bow to the flower bed with a wire.
  5. Spray generously with spray paint and wait for it to dry. One thicker layer of the preparation is enough.
  6. Finally, in the finished flowerbed, plant plants or put pots with flowers in it.

I have had my ornament for two years now and nothing happens to it, even after a heavy rain.
