Take your creativity outdoors with this project.

1) First, you will want four large metal poles about 2 1/2 inches in diameter in a length of your choosing, string lights, an outdoor extension cord, several small buckets and a few small plants.

2) Connect the poles together by wrapping string lights around them, making sure the lights are taut.

3) Plant your plants in the buckets. In this episode we used sap buckets with sweet potato vines.

4) Attach your metal pole frame with lights on to your existing fence or exterior wall. Then you can either cut out holes, or buy buckets with holes in them already and hang the buckets on the fence in the middle of your frame.

5) Finally, to hide the electrical cord, we used black polish and rubbed it on the cord and wire
