This was one of my projects today. This took me all of 5 minutes to put together and cost me less than $15.00 total.
Supplies:
1). Planter was originally $39.99. On sale at Michaels for $9.99
2). 1 small plant in ceramic pot at Michaels. On sale for $2.49
3). Left over plastic bags from Target and the grocery store
4). Moss. I already had this on hand. It's $4.99 a bag at Michaels
I placed the plant, still in the ceramic pot, in the middle of my new large planter and put plastic bags all around it, securing it and making it snug. I put the moss over the bags to hide them. I had another artificial plant that I snipped a few sprigs off of and sporadically put them in with the other plant...and viola.
I think it looks very classy and expensive...but remember, only you know my secret!

Sounds like a sale of the century down at Michael's! Great job on the planter.
I love it! Thank you SOOOOOO much for the tip. I have really been in the dark when it comes to plants and planters. This year is going to be the year I make my plants and house look better.
