Flower pot and ashtray design



Far be it from me to encourage you to smoke, because everyone knows that it is lmauvais health. But the fact is, smoking is a pleasure for a number of us (well not me, but I think the others). But we must admit that there are more design an ashtray to decorate a table. Hence the great idea of the design team to provide an ashtray Vitamin - Flowerpot design.Tab B presents itself as a removable flower pot under the base which houses an ashtray. It goes unnoticed and when you are not using it. And it's true that it's still nicer to have a beautiful plant to look an ashtray filled with cigarette butts, right?

Self-Watering Seed Starter Pots

A few weeks ago the girls and I did a project that I've been enjoying every day since.  We repurposed 2 liter bottles and turned them into self-watering planters for starting our tomatoes and cucumbers indoors.  They've been sitting on the window sill near my desk and I've been watching them grow every day.  It's been the perfect antidote for the bummer weather we've been having here in Seattle.
I've tried starting seeds indoors several different ways over the years.  So far this is my favorite method because the soil is always exactly the right moisture level and it's very easy to see with the naked eye when it's time to add water to the planter.  There's no guesswork involved and the plants seem to love it.

Make a 50/50 combination of flour and baking soda, and dust it all over whichever plants the cabbage worms are eating. They'll eat the combo while munching the leaves, and die within a day or so. Repeat as necessary.
