Hanging Bottle Plants...and Avocado Tree!

This is one of the several projects you can choose from at the workshop...I will provide bottles and yarn but you are also welcome to bring your own....

These bottles are filled with water which lasts for a long time so it's great for people that forget to water the plants....like myself sometimes....

Any bottles are good, even plastic ones...although glass are the best.....this one above is a wine bottle....the one below is an apple juice bottle....


Beer bottles are also great because they come in nice brown and green colors....

This particular one is 1/2 of a water bottle...you can see the cap on the bottom....I sprouted one of our first avocado seedlings in it!!

Part of the process is learning how to finger crochet...with a little practice....and once you got that down, the rest comes easily!


These 2 pictures below show a small water bottle I cut in half and made two plant holders....
