Green DIY For My Gardener Friends

I came across a couple of things on the DIY site Instructables that I thought some of you might enjoy. Self watering plant pots and vases made from old plastic bottles.

I used to make something like this (a terrarium instead of a pot) when I was a kid of out of old 2 liter soda bottles when they still had the plastic caps on the bottom of the bottles. Very cool stuff, a great way to keep recyclables out of the landfills, and useful for plant-lovers everywhere. Best of all, most of it won’t cost you anything as it’s mostly made from “trash”. Enjoy.
