I think a lot of people are turning to gardening right now…along with baking bread.

You may not have a lot of space in your backyard or you want to get creative with the containers. This idea for using the loved or hated Crocs as a plant container, I think is both fun and practical with all their holes. You can pick up crocs and old boots at yard sales too.  Do you know a little gardener? Check out these DIY Garden Kits, perfect for gift giving.
