My post today on my other blog, Get Your Green Jeans On, seems rather appropriate for here, also.While re-purposing things is an eco-friendly thing to do - it is often a money saving action as well.
GO HERE to read about projects that can save you $'s by Doing It Yourself.

Floral foam and glass marbles aren't the only ways to hold flowers aloft. Instead, a bunch of vintage milk bottles gives this arrangement—featured in Decorating with Flowers—its structure. Simply line up nine same-size vessels in three rows of three. Then wrap gardener's twine around the grouping twice and tie the ends. Finish the blooming display by placing two to three stems in each container.
My Comments (of course I have to add one...): Don't have vintage milk bottles? Try glass bottles from beverage drinks like Lipton Tea, Sobe, Izzie - remove the labels and whalah!
