After spotting some large planters in the bargain shop for just £20 each she decided to make them look loads more expensive.
Posting on Instagram, the homeowner explained: "We have been on the lookout for some lovely planters for some time and for a tall size, prices are considerably high."
That's why renovating pro decided to spruce up the budget-friendly ones she got her hands on instead.
She bought two of the large pots as well as two slightly smaller ones then painted the large ones black.
"We just got around to painting the large ones and have the medium still to do," she noted.
