DIY Succulent Letter
What you need
- Cardboard Letter(s) from Michaels, Amazon, or a Cardboard Box
- Trash Bag
- Glue
- Scissors
- X-acto Knife
- Succulents
- Cactus Soil
Directions
- Use your X-acto knife to cut one side of the letter off, leaving about 1/4" trim around the letter. If using a cardboard box, cut out your letter and hot glue 2-3 inch cardboard trim around it from scrap cardboard.
- Remove the cardboard from inside and apply glue along the bottom and sides of the inside of the letter. Apply trash bag to the entire inside, spread it out and get into all crevices, then let dry.
- Trim the trash bag along the edge of the letter so it doesn't show and discard the trimmed portion. Fill with soil and succulents.
