Good grief – my husband and I just had an entire conversation about this photo:
Me: “What a perfect way to wreck a pair of All-Stars”.
Him: “They could just be knackered, or they could just be plant pots inside the shoes”.
Me: “Yes, they’re definitely not knackered, although they’re not in a brand new condition”.
Him: “Actually, I’d go so far as to say that they’re definitely plant pots in there, as the shoes are in good condition. Although, I’m not sure if I’d want soil in and around my sneakers”.
Me: “Yes”.

Hahahaha… I am glad the pic provoked such in depth discussions! I wish I had picked them up and had a look underneath them now! :D
That is such a fun idea! So cute :-)
Thanks so much Elisa! :)
Oh I love this idea, great shot too! :-)
Thank you Lou! :)
What a brilliant idea :-)
Thanks Maria! :)
Love them! At least they should smell nice now!
Thanks Jan, you would hope so wouldn’t you! :)
Fantastic! What a great way to recycle x
Thanks Kim! :)
Ooh, what a good idea! That would definitely be a good use of my old trainers.
Good use of something that would probably get chucked out otherwise isn’t it? :)
How cool is that!
Thanks Fiona! :)
I love this! What a great way to keep the shoes too. I’m loving the red door too. Happy Sunday!
Thanks Leslie! Happy Sunday to you too! :)
Lol fantastic way to recycle….and plant your feet.
Thanks Kriss, ingenious upcycling! :D
That is pure genius!
Thanks Michelle! :D
Love the colours with the red door and the idea of planting in old shoes, thought about using wellies before but not shoes!
Me neither… It works though doesn’t it? Thank you! :)
What a clever idea for plant pots – love it!
Thanks Victoria! :)
Oh wow! I love these :)
Thanks Shay! :)
How cute and funky.
Thank you! (:
Clever bit of recycling! Are they yours? Love the toes turned in, and the bright red door x
Not mine, but I loved the idea! Thank you T! :) x
brilliant idea, great photo xx
Thanks Wendy! :) xx
I’ve seen that with walking boots but not with pumps. This seems more sensible. Better drainage, but probably only one season before they rot!
If they were past recycling, it’s still better than chucking them straight into landfill I guess! :D
Love it, brilliant idea to cultivate ‘little green fingers’! x
Thanks Mum xx
lol lol what a super idea!
Thanks Jaime! :)
Love it, my converse are about had it so I may do this with them ;) Love the colours, absolutely gorgeous #silentsunday
Thank you! :)
What a lovely idea. It works so well.
Unusual isn’t it? Thank you! :)
That is so cute, I love it! Is that at your place or did you just spot them somewhere else?
Somewhere else, but I am pinching the idea! :D Thanks Phoebe! :)
Brilliant. Just brilliant! :) xx
Thank you FW! :) xx
