I’ve seen this before, and thought it was a great idea! I love anything that will save money on my garden, and FREE pots are perfect. Check out the whole “How-To” on making these neat little things HERE.

The best thing about this is that you can plant the whole thing straight into your garden when it’s time to transplant outdoors. Love it!

If you don’t get a newspaper, and don’t know anyone who does, you may be able to score some from your local recycling/trash collecting place.

    How do you keep the bottoms together? Or do you not?? I looked at the website you posted and couldnt figure it out. I like the idea of using toilet paper rolls for that too!

    Hey Jessica,

    I was under the impression that the bottoms just kinda held together once they were full of soil. Whenever I try this, I’ll have to follow up on that one… thanks!

    UPDATE: I made these today, and yes, they do just kinda hold together. I didn’t tape or glue or anything. Filling them with soil helps them stay put too.
