From pots, garden boxes, seeds, fertilizer, and
more...gardens can be expensive and confusing! Have you ever planted something
then realized you didn’t label it or you have no idea what it is after it has
sprouted? Well not anymore, here are 3 DIY Ideas that will help make your
garden flourish with beauty and functionality! The best part is that they are
inexpensive.
Project Number 1: Chalkboard Painted Pot
Materials:
Clay Pot, Chalkboard Paint, Stencils, Pencil, Painters Tape, and Chalk.
First make sure your clay pot is clean of any dirt,
dust, soil, water, etc. then you are going to trace the stencil of your choice
onto the pot with a pencil. The next step is to place painters tape on the
outline of your trace to ensure you get perfect paint lines. After that is
complete, paint away and label the pot as desired!
You will never lose track of your vegetables, herbs,
or flowers again!
Project Number 2: Space Saver Veggies
Project Number 2: Space Saver Veggies
This project is a great way to save space and to
keep pesky critters out of your flowers or vegetables.
Materials:
a shoe organizer that hangs and a hanger of your choice.
Simply take the shoe organizer you found at a
bargain store, under your bed or a new one you bought and fill each opening
where a shoe is supposed to go with soil and other wanted nutrients. Then
simply plant the seed or plant and hang on the fence or a hanger stand of your
choice. With this simple garden trick you never have to worry about your garden
getting mowed over, dug up, or smashed by kids, lawn men, or even spouses!
Project Number 3: Upside Down Tomato Plant Hanger
This project can be a little tricky but it’s green,
inexpensive, and your tomatoes will forever thank you!
Materials:
Small Tomato Plant, Empty 2 liter plastic bottle, Duct Tape, Single Hole Punch,
String, Soil, and Sharp Knife or Scissors.
An Upside Down Tomato Plant Hanger is easy,
once the 2 liter bottle is empty. The first step is to cut the bottom off of
the empty 2 liter. A good place to cut the bottle is right above where the 5
little nubs are at the bottom. Then you are going to tape the edges of the
bottle you just cut so it is not sharp. After that, go ahead and punch holes
through the tape and bottle with the single hole puncher. Remember to make as
many holes as you need to hang it and to make the holes big enough to hold your
string. Finally you are going to put the tomato plant through the bottle. The
easiest way to do this is to start from the bottom of the bottle and send the
plant through the lid of the bottle. Last, add soil and hang where the plant
can get the desired sunlight.
