Recycle your empty Play Doh containers by
turning them into a forest of plant pot cress trees using woodgrain wrappers
and seeds that can be grown, trimmed and eaten at anytime of the year. Once you've chosen your tubs, make 4 or more drainage
holes in the bottom of each one. Use a drill or hot soldering iron and then
print the woodgrain bark wrapper, cutting strips to fit around the outter
sides of each pot. 3/4 fill them with cotton wool balls or pads and dampen with water.
Sprinkle the cress seeds over the surface and leave to germinate. Once grown
trim the green tips, wash and add to a sandwich or use as a garnish.
