Recycled Mug Plant Hangers

In this instructable I'll show you how I turned some old chipped mugs into an adorable collection of strawberry planters which are hung on my garden fence.

Materials you will need:
Old/unwanted mugs
Soil
Plants
Wood screws

Tools you will need:
Drill
4mm masonry drill bit
Screwdriver
Hammer (optional)
Center punch (optional)

First you will need to get some cups and drill some holes in them for drainage. This is particularly important if you live in quite a rainy climate so the pots don't get water logged.
You will also need a very sharp masonry bit for this as the ceramic mugs are very hard to drill.

I drilled a few of the holes but it was really difficult due to the material so I ended up just drilling a starting hole and then gently tapping a screw through the hole with a hammer.

Now it's simply a case of filling them with soil and hanging them in your preferred location. I've hung them on a shaded fence so the soil doesn't get full sun during the day otherwise it would dry out too quickly. Give them a good soak in to help the roots get established.
