Creative Flower Container Ideas For Both Indoors & Out

Do you want your flowers to look even more stunning than they already do? I’ll show you creative and upcycled flower container ideas for both indoors and out.

I have a passion for flowers. There is so much more to arranging fresh cut flowers, or planting pretty blooms in the garden. Certainly, half the fun is coming up with creative and upcycled flower container ideas.

Watering Cans

Grab a vintage watering can from the garden to show off your flowers. Add a mason jar or vase filled with water when your watering can is worn and rotting. As a result, this will help to keep the flowers hydrated.

Anything Galvanized

Using old and rusty galvanized washtubs is a fabulous way to display flowers and herbs.

When planting directly into a container, drill drainage holes in the bottom of your galvanized tubs and buckets. Then, add an inch of pea gravel to the bottom to facilitate drainage.

These reclaimed galvanized containers are a stunning focal point in any home or garden.

Tuck your succulents into a repurposed turkey feeder to enjoy a fun and unique display.

Long stemmed flowers look gorgeous in metal French flower buckets of all colors.

Vintage Garden Treasures

Old shoes and booties are such a sweet option for your garden flowers. They are certainly a unique idea that will make a statement in your garden.

Silver tea pots are one of my very favorite container ideas, and certainly add a special touch.

This antique silver trophy cup displays these blooms so beautifully.

You may have a wooden bucket lying around the house. However, look at how a bunch of lilacs bring it back to life.

Tool Boxes and Caddys

Tackle and tool boxes are perfect for showing off your plants and flowers. As a result of adding succulents to this old tool box, it’s now a perfectly repurposed piece.

Grandpa’s wooden tool caddy is a creative container idea for succulents.

Kitchen Pitchers and Pots

I love the simplicity of using ceramic pitchers when I am creating a floral arrangement.

These lilacs are stunning in this ironstone pitcher. The white and purple color combination makes a strong impact.

Flower frogs and chicken wire are great options to put inside a vintage enamel pots to hold flowers upright.

Outdoor Garden Containers

Whiskey and wine barrels are a fabulous option for the garden. I use them for annuals, evergreen shrubs and herbs.

This cast-iron wall mounted fountain is a dramatic focal point in the garden.

Add flowers to your vintage bike baskets. Make sure to line the basket with moss and fill with dirt.

Here I planted summer flowers in a doorstep milk box.
