Okay, so I wanted to make this cool “b2 flowerpot” thing I saw. It seemed pretty straightforward, so I figured, why not give it a shot? Here’s how it went down.
Getting Started
First things first, I needed the materials. Obviously, I needed a pot. I grabbed a basic terracotta one from my shed – nothing fancy, just your standard pot. Then, because it’s a “b2” thing, I assumed it needed some kind of…double-layered effect? So I thought about a smaller pot to go inside.
I rummaged around and found a smaller plastic pot that would fit nicely inside the bigger one. Perfect! That was easy. I also made sure I had some potting soil, because, you know, it’s a flowerpot.
Putting it Together
This part was pretty simple. I put some soil in the bottom of the larger terracotta pot. Just enough so that when I put the smaller plastic pot inside, the rims were about level. You don’t want the inner pot sticking way up, it’ll look weird.
Then, I carefully centered the smaller pot inside the larger one, on top of that first layer of soil.
Once I had it positioned just right, I started filling in the space between the two pots with more soil. I made sure to pack it down a bit as I went, so it would be nice and stable. This is what creates that “b2” effect – you’ve got soil in the inner pot, and soil all around it in that gap.
Planting Time!
Now for the fun part!I am going to add different plants,and made sure they would be happy in the same type of soil.
I gently put those plants in the soil in the gap. I am arranging them so they looked good together, some smaller, I really take the time to find a good look.
Finally, I added the plants to the inner pot.
The Finished Product
And that’s it! Seriously, it was super easy. The “b2 flowerpot” ended up looking pretty cool, I think I make it right. It’s got this neat layered effect, and it was a fun little project to do. Now I’ve got a unique flowerpot to show off. I think it is looking good.
