I stopped by a nearby thrift shop a few days ago and just as I was about to leave, this vintage tin planter caught my eye. It needed a good scrub but it is well-made and has an earthy, rustic look to it. I love the designs in the metal, its rusty patina, and the handles on either end. It's a great size too (and only cost me ten dollars!) and I've discovered so many uses for it already.
Arrange fresh or dried flowers in it for a romantic, cottage-y look
Use it for holding scarves or other delicate things on top of a dresser
(those are our engagement photos in the background)
Place rolled-up fresh, white hand towels in it to give your bathroom some character
Perch on a shelf and use as stylish storage for bath and shower items
I love finding beautiful, old things and giving them a second life! How would you use this tin planter?
