I copied an idea I saw in a magazine (I think). I thought it was a cute planter idea. I was originally going to place a real plant in it but decided watering it and the damage water could do wasn't such a great idea. So, a fake ivy was the best I could do with what I had.
This arrangement is in my sunroom.
I bought 2 books that I had no interest in reading at the local Thrift Shop. I glued them together by their covers. My husband drilled a 3 1/2" hole through them both. I recycled a sour cream container to fit inside it. I placed florist foam in the container and stuck my ivy in there. Planter completed.Check Metamorphosis Monday at Between Naps on the Porch for some really great ideas for making changes in your home.

Pam,
It's not Monday (yet) and I'm not drinking coffee. . .but I saw your newest post in my sidebar and had to get a sneak peek tonight. I'll re~visit tomorrow. There's just nothing quite like Monday Morning coffee with Pammiejo and friends!
Cute idea! I still like books in home decor, whether I read them or not! HA! Thanks for sharing.
Fondly,
Pat
