Prepare the Tar

Clean the tire thoroughly using soap and water to remove any dirt and debris.

Sand the Tire

Use sandpaper to rough up the surface of the tire. This helps the paint adhere better.

Paint the Tire

Apply a coat of primer suitable for rubber surfaces. Once dry, paint the tire with your chosen color. Allow it to dry completely.

Cut a Wooden Board

Measure and cut a circular wooden board to fit inside the tire, serving as the base for your plants.

Assemble the Stand

Place the wooden board inside the tire. Optionally, secure it with screws if needed.

Place the Plants

Arrange your potted plants on the wooden board within the tire.
