Tire Herb Gardens
Paint a tire in earthy tones and use it to grow your favorite herbs. It’s practical, beautiful, and my rosemary has never thrived better!

Use painted tires as borders for garden beds. They add structure and a pop of color, and I love how they keep my herbs neatly contained while looking oh-so-chic.

Cut a tire in half, paint it, and hang it on a wall or fence. Fill it with trailing plants for a unique hanging garden—my succulents have never looked happier!
