The best way to add that finishing touch of elegance is with a little bit of old-school style.
Reuse those old tires and make some beautiful garden art!
1. Sturdy Tire Table and Stools
Tires make a fantastic base for armless and backless stools. Placing them side by side will give you the narrowest possible table between them, which is perfect if your patio has limited space!
Choose from burlap cloth with vintage logos or some colorful designs on it- beneath this furniture item there are soft pads that won’t leave any indication whatsoever about what’s underneath when sitting down.
2. Tiered Container Garden
Painting old tires will give you the chance to be creative with colors and patterns. If your space is limited, consider planting flowers in different areas of each tire for an edgy look that’s both functional as well aesthetically pleasing!
3. Hanging Fence Planters
Painting your tires can create an interesting look for the garden fence.
Trails of vines and flowers are a great way to add life, while also making it easier on you when painting time!
4. Tire Tower
Tire towers are an easy way to add some visual interest and dimensionality into your garden. Stack different tire sizes together for a more interesting look, or use one large thick tire at the top with smaller ones laid out around it like bricks in an open book!
Planting trees will also help bring up its height (and they don’t take long either)!
5. Tire Tea Cup
You can create an awesome tire ornament that looks like a giant tea cup! Make sure you add the saucer and handle for good measure to make it look less like mushrooms.
6. Golden Floral Fountain
How about making a tiered fountain out of tires? You can cut and extend one rim into petal-like formations, then paint these pieces to get the basic idea. What do you think about stacking them together for your preferred design?
7. Playground Equipment
The kids will love this one! Paint the tires to give a more festive appearance and get sturdy rope that can be attached between two trees or onto an under-the-play structure.
8. Stairs
Create a landscaped walkway with old tires by lining them up on top of each other and filling their insides with soil.
Then, make sure you bury the tires well so that they don’t get washed away during heavy rain storms!
9. Yard Art
If you’re creative enough to turn old tires into an amazing sculpture like this one, your friends and neighbors will be green with envy!
10. Tire Bird Feeder
You can get even more creative with your feeder by cutting a tree, shaping it and painting. This one on the picture is an example of that!
11. Retaining Walls
The construction of a tire wall is easy and cost-effective. A good place to start would be by partially burying each tire in the ground, filling them with soil and bark until you reach your desired height (about two feet). Stack up these barriers like steps all around your home.
Let grass grow where there’s no more room on top for planting flowers!
