There comes a time in every car's life when the tires must be replaced. But what do you do with these old tires? Burning them isn't eco-friendly, and keeping a whole bunch stacked in your garage is just a waste of space. If you're looking for a new project to keep yourself busy, there are plenty of amazing ways to reuse and repurpose your old tires. From interior decor pieces to garden appliances, keep scrolling because you won't want to miss these doable DIYs.

Get Crafty With DIY Tire Planters

What we love about tire planters is that the opportunities really are endless. You can go as basic or as elaborate as you want, and you don't even have to use real flowers if you don't consider yourself to be very green-fingered. But if you do want to get real plants involved, we'd urge you to go as colorful as you possibly can. This way, your tire planter will really stand out from the crowd.

Elevating your tire planter from the ground will also help to prolong the life of your flowers, as this extra height will allow for excess water to fall to the ground.

Put Together a Stylish Armchair

As tires live most of their lives outside, it would be easy to assume that tire DIY projects need to go outside, too. But that's not the case. With the right care and attention, you can create a bespoke piece of furniture for your home from old tires - like this tire armchair. This has been made by covering an old tire with yarn and then attaching legs and a backrest.

This person has managed to bring an impressive and colorful pattern to life, but you can stick to a simpler design if you prefer a more minimal aesthetic. The choice is yours.

Use a Bike Tire to Make a Mirror

Car tires aren't the only tires that get shoved to the back of the garage. And if you have a few spare bicycle tires lying around, you'll be happy to know that they're very easy to reuse and repurpose. In fact, you could use the tire as a frame to make a new mirror for your home! Of course, it's important to make sure that the mirror you choose is the right size as the tire itself.

When you've done that, however, you have the opportunity to add as much or as little decoration as you want to turn this old tire into something truly stylish and special.

Turn It Into a Yarn Ottoman

Although tires are very ugly to look at on their own, you can easily cover them up during a DIY project. And if you're looking for some extra furniture for your living room but don't have a big budget, this particular DIY project could suit you perfectly. That's because tires can look extremely stylish and sophisticated when turned into a yarn ottoman, and if you have the patience to do an intricately woven pattern, the results will definitely pay off.

While yarn is undoubtedly the best material for such a DIY project, you can also use sisal to cover this old tire if you have some lying around and feel more comfortable using it.

DIY Some Extra Seating

You can never have enough chairs, right? Whether you need some extra chairs in your dining room, your kids' playroom, or your outside bar, these tire chairs are the perfect option for those who want something a bit more fun. And what we love about this DIY project is that it's so simple yet so effective. By covering the tire holes with cushioning and then putting two of them together, you can create the ultimate chair.

You can also make these as colorful or as plain as you want so you can perfectly match them up to the rest of your home decor. Plus, we bet they're pretty comfortable!

Aim High With a Hanging Tire Planter

We've already seen a few tire planters on this list, but these were all on the floor. So, what if we flip the switch slightly? By turning your old tire the other way around and hanging it from a wall or a tree, you can make a beautiful hanging tire planter that allows you to show off your plants in a very unique and unusual way. Plus, anyone can do it!

All you need to do is stand the tire up and plant some soil into the bottom. You can then plant your flowers before hanging them in the space that makes the most sense for you.

Turn Two Old Tires Into a Garden Table

If you've ever tried to buy garden furniture, you'll know that it can be very expensive. If you're trying to save some cash, you might be interested to know that you can take the old tires sitting in your garage and repurpose them for something useful. In fact, by stacking two old tires on top of each other and attaching a tabletop above, you can create a quick and easy garden table that does the job.

You can make this table bigger or smaller by adding more tires or taking some away, but then the general decoration is up to you. You could paint the tires or cover them in yarn.
