DIY Umbrella Table Flower Planter

"We all have those outdoor patio tables with the umbrella hole in the center. It's great for getting summertime shade but it's hard to create a centerpiece around an umbrella pole. However, you can create a pretty summer flower arrangement around that obtrusive table umbrella hole by combining two plastic flower pots together. Using one simple power tool and household scissors, flower pots are "planted" around the umbrella pole for an easy splash of greenery on your patio table."

What another great idea to make your outdoor patio table a little nicer by adding some plants around it. This is so easy. All you need is a big and a smaller plastic pots and drill two holes,fill with dirt and plants. Why notadd some plants,flowers and herbs to keep the bugs away like citrollena plant,marigolds and rosemary. Love this idea.
