Best Garden Art Projects

  • These are the best/most popular garden art projects on Empress of Dirt.
  • All of these projects make use of recycled or repurposed household items such as plates, lamp globes, kitchen utensils, and old tools. Turn your junk into art! You can upcycle anything that can withstand the weather. Glass and metal items work very well.
  • And the good news is, you can make all of these items for under $20 (excluding the cost of tools).
  • Making garden art is easy. There are printable instructions and details on each page below or you can get them all together in my new eBook, Empress of Dirt Garden Art & Ideas.
