TIP: HOMEMADE PLANT POTS

I have been on work leave this week.  At first, I was so confused of what to do to fill up the time.  So I made a to do list of things that I wouldn't do if I were at work or things I have been postponing.  Now, as the first week of leave's over, I totally LOVE my time off.

One of the things I did was gardening.  My teacher just inherited me plenty of plants that took over our patio.  As a result, for the past 1 month, Marcel hasn't been able to do our bike maintenance.  With this time off, I was determined to get the patio cleaned up so that both of us can enjoy our hobbies there: gardening for me and maintaining bikes for Marcel.

When I was working on the plants, I realized that lots of my plants have "given birth."  So I needed to re-pot them.  But what could I do?  I got no extra pots to use?  Hmmmm, I thought to myself.  Then, I found 20 empty water bottles in the kitchen.  At that moment, I was in the mission to make use of them.

So here you go, I would like to share with you how I made 20 FREE pots.  Best of all, remember my post about bromeliad pups?  Well, three of the pups were big enough to be repotted.  Check out the last photo in this post.

These bromeliad pups were from here
May this be handy for you!
