DIY ~ Gifts For Gardeners

Some folks think it difficult to find beautiful, yet affordable, gifts for the gardener, so let me tell you how I go about it. First of all, throughout the year, I am on the lookout for inexpensive baskets and decorative containers. All of the baskets and containers in this article were purchased at yard sales for a song: a dollar or less each! Just as I keep my eyes peeled for baskets in great condition, small garden-related items on sale are always on my radar. Keep a box or two in a closet to stash your finds away until needed.
Thinking in themes is helpful when planning a gardening gift basket. Is this gift for a bird-lover? A seed starter? A plant fancier? Keep your friend or family member in mind as you construct their one-of-a-kind gift. Related items in coordinating colors will give your homemade gift that custom-made look.
Come see some of the gift baskets I just made for holiday gift-giving this year!
Paperwhite bulbs & white stone gravel in a little birdbath!
Gardeners who start their own seed will like this basket with peat pots & trays, potting soil, tools, seeds and more!
A wire tote with garden gloves, tools, seeds, pots and row markers. Very Handy!
Hand & footcare items in a pretty little planter with a fairy on top!
