Living in a rental there's not really space for a garden so I find myself gravitating toward adorable little planters for herbs and touches of green to bring a little life inside. Right now I'm loving all of these crafty ideas, most of which are easy DIY projects perfect for bringing nature indoors. Ready to wield your green thumb? Here are 7 of the pretty planters that are perfect for small spaces:
1. Neon Stripe Planters
