IKEA Hack: Make a DIY Faux Succulent Planter from a Box

THIS POST IS SPONSORED BY IKEA STOUGHTON, BUT ALL IDEAS & OPINIONS ARE ENTIRELY MY OWN.

This past winter, I saw the YPPERLIG box at one of my many trips to my local IKEA Stoughton, and it occurred to me that it would make the perfect planter.

It’s cute. It’s petite. It’s a gorgeous shade of sage green.

And of course, you can never—EVER—have too many planters.

When I then discovered that IKEA now has faux air plants…well, obviously I couldn’t resist turning this adorable box into a DIY faux succulent planter. Check out the tutorial below to see how to make your own!
