Making use out of chipped and otherwise harmful and useless mugs. Great for gifting and a kitchen herb garden. Don’t forget to drill a hole in the bottom!
Brilliant! And a great addition to the “beverage carton-repurposing” idea file.
Spotted on Facebook, on the Grow Food, Not Lawns community gardening page here. (If you’re aware of the original source, please tell us — I wasn’t able to track it down.)
Other garden-related ideas can be found in earlier Unconsumption posts here and here.
“Gardening with repurposed objects” is a recurring theme here on Gardens in Unexpected Places.
Today, I’m pleased to add this item to the mix: a boombox garden.
A pretty good new use for a dead boombox, isn’t it?

While matchboxes are not only infrequently used but also produce an almost negligible amount of one of the least harmful wastes- this is neat. I like the idea of packaging that is biodegradable, I mean duh, we all do. It’s just cool to see people actually doing it. Kind of. In concept. :]
