Brilliant! And a great addition to the “beverage carton-repurposing” idea file.
Spotted on Facebook, on the Grow Food, Not Lawns community gardening page here. (If you’re aware of the original source, please tell us — I wasn’t able to track it down.)
Other garden-related ideas can be found in earlier Unconsumption posts here and here.

craigslist houseshare ad: “i have a garden growing in my shower so you have to use eco-friendly hair products. you will see worms and other insects, and you will occasionally see a spider too but they all help out the ecosystem.”
ok.
I’m all for using graywater to water plants. (Green) thumbs up for this!
Maybe pair it with this moss bathmat?!
Have a piece of PVC pipe that’s old and/or leaking?
Repurpose it into a planter. Cut it open, punch holes into the bottom (for drainage), and cap the ends.
The plastic pipe material is lightweight and durable.
What else would you do with scrap pipe pieces?

“Gardening with repurposed objects” is a recurring theme here on Gardens in Unexpected Places.
Today, I’m pleased to add this item to the mix: a boombox garden.
A pretty good new use for a dead boombox, isn’t it?
