Make Christmas bells from terra-cotta planters.
1. Cut a piece of sisal twine to your desired length for each planter.
2. Thread both ends of the twine through the bottom of each planter, and knot the ends three or four times.
3. Use twine to secure the bells to the post at staggering heights.
Be sure that your decorations do not obstruct the front of your mailbox door or the slot.
