I recently went with a friend to Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando. While we were there we found out they were having their annual Flower and Garden Festival. Every spring they deck out Epcot in topiaries, outdoor arts and crafts, and gardening technology and demonstrations. As you know Disney is all about creativity, innovation, environment, and detail. Could we expect anything less from their gardens?
One garden in particular was filled with art and planters made out of cheap reusable items and instructions on how to make them. Of course, they were executed to Disney perfection, but, still, I think you might get some inspiration from them. Let the creative juices flow!

| They glued chicken wire to the bottom of these concrete blocks and layed landscaping fabric on top of it so that the plants wouldn't fall through. |
 |
| This eye-catching fence is made from spray painting common items - hula hoops and garden tools. |
 |
Could this be done with cups? bowls?
What else could you make with this technique? |
 |
| These mosaic globes are decorated with seeds, grains, and cinnamon. |
 |
| Stamped and painted birdbath. |
 |
| These dogs are made from bark, moss, seeds, and the like. |
Got any ideas yet?
