Cool vertical gardening idea — repurposing cracked or broken teacups, coffee cups and mugs as planters.
Those of us who tend to overwater plants would need to be careful in watering plants — even succulents — planted in a mosaic wall like this. But still, I like.

Barreau&Charbonnet’s Volet Végétal is a drawbridge-like urban gardening system that lets apartment-dwelling greenthumbs extend their window plots in a striking and mess-free manner.
Bonus: The entire framed piece can be removed and placed upright on a floor (e.g., in the event of bad weather).

Wearable planters … for your bike!
The planters, which attach to bikes via elastic cords, are made by Colleen Jordan, a.k.a. Wearable Planter on Etsy. Colleen designs the planters in 3D modeling software, then prints the planters out of nylon on 3D printers.
The sweet necklace planter featured in this earlier Gardens in Unexpected Places post is also one of Colleen’s creations.
