I've been frustrated trying to find little pots to plant my herbs in so I can keep them on my windowsill. The pots I've found are either too big, too small or too expensive.

So, I've gone back to the old fashioned way of using tin cans and planting my herbs in them. I had my fresh basil in a flower pot for months, but when I transplanted it into a tin can with the paper removed, he noticed the basil plant. Rolling Eyes

It's cost effective, the cans fit nicely on my windowsill, they're shiny and bright and I can recyle them for other plants.
