Thrifty Mom website shares a great way to upcycle an old broken shop vacuum into a mobile huge garden planter container.
It is actually really simple:
-
Just unlatch the clamps that are built into the shop vac to open it to normally remove the dirt inside when it was in working order.
-
Discard the top of the unit that has motor in it (or save for another project)
-
Clean with soap and water inside and out
-
Allow to completely dry
-
Optional, drill a few drain holes in the bottom
-
Spray paint your choice of color
-
Decorate any way you choose
