On one of the faces we have done a lettering with a marker. Put your favorite phrase!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Then, make two holes on each side of the box with the help of a punch.

If all sides of the box have cardboard, you can remove one of the faces with the help of a cutter. In our case, we have reused the popcorn box, which we use at the end of the year party. In the upper center of each side we have made a hole with the punch, to be able to pass a piece of rope in each one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Now, place a small plant with a ceramic pot and its small dish inside the box. Next, make two decorative knots at different heights with the 4 ends of the pot. Finally, hang the pot in your favorite corner.
