I made these cute little newspaper pots for this Children's Fair for my internship. I thought they were such a good idea because I can always find newspaper somewhere for free. The other silver pots were from a girl at my internship, she gave them away as favors at her wedding with packages of strawberry and tomato seeds, super cute idea! Well I planted everything at the same time -One strawberry, one tomato in the silver pots and flowers in the newspaper pots. I didn't get anything growing out of the newspaper and I don't know why.....maybe the ink prevents it from growing? Who knows....but as of now I only have one plant in the silver pot growing (I knocked the other one over when I was vacumming...oops)I really like gardening and growing things but I don't have a green thumb, maybe someday.
