After publishing my instructable I started getting people mention some great ideas. So if they don't mind I'd like to share them with you (and give them credit of course).



ejk00 suggested:

Using coloured Duct Tape instead of using the Masking Tape and colouring pen/pencil.



KnittingFreak suggested:

Sticking kiddish stickers or mini photo's of friends/family onto your flower box to add the personal touch to it, and make it look more appealing than just the mild colouring.



Weissensteinburg suggested:

Using two magnets instead of just the one. This will help with stability and stop any chance of it spinning/tipping over.



capricorn suggested:

Growing cooking herbs in it.



Very Keri suggested:

Painting it and then covering it with buttons, rhinestones and/or ribbon. Then growing Basil in it.



crasch48 suggested:

Adding a little polymer from a nappy (diaper) or ladies pad will hold the water longer, thus requiring less watering.



xmariax suggested:

After colouring the masking tape, cover the Flower Box with a little sticky tape.

This helps to give it a glossy, wipe-proof look.



musicalbee2003 suggested:

Using a strip magnet instead of a normal magnet.



stephaniepotter suggested:

Growing plants in it that have very shallow roots, such as aloe, cacti, or mosses.
