Hello everyone, how are you? I hope you are all having a fantastic weekend. During March I enjoyed following Stephanie's blog Full of Great Ideas as she set herself the challenge of decorating (which she loves to do), on a $0 budget in a bid to stop unnecessary spending. She had to use what she had on hand and amazed herself and her followers with her creativity. You can read the many things she learnt from this challenge on her blog and of course see her lovely creative ideas on her $0 budget.
Stephanie is having a linky party for other ideas on a $0 budget so I thought I might contribute. My idea is a little different from decorating but I thought it was a practical one.
I'm a gardener and have an assortment of herbs growing outside my back door. They recently needed dividing so rather than put the excess plants in the compost, I planted some in pots. Stephanie's challenge had me thinking about gift giving on a $0 budget so here is what I did.
One very overgrown oregano plant, weedy too.
Divided oregano plant $0, recycled tin can $0 and soil from the garden $0.
Recycled newspaper $0, string already in my supplies $0 and a tag already in my supplies $0.
Put these altogether and you have a lovely $0 gift to give someone who is either a gardener, has a passion for things culinary or even for someone who is hosting a dinner party.
What do you think of my idea? I had so much fun doing this I think I might be looking at what else I can do on a $0 budget. See Full of Great Ideas for other $0 budget ideas.
Bye for now,
Anne xx
