Grow Herbs and More in a Hanging Shoe Organizer

Tight on gardening space? Want to garden without stooping or kneeling? Well, do I have a cool tip for you! How about planting herbs or strawberries or ??? in the pockets of a hanging shoe organizer? Yes, a shoe organizer! You know, that forgotten over-the-door or closet rod thing holding a few stray craft supplies?

Giving credit where credit is due, no, of course I didn't think of this. In fact, I don't even garden. I saw a post by my cousin, Debra, on facebook and followed the link and ended up at Vertical Vegetables on Instructables. So thanks Debra and thanks Pippa5 (the author) for sharing such a great idea!

I've included an Amazon link (it's the picture) to what I'm talking about. But I'd be looking around the house, asking friends and family or checking the thrift store. Until this idea catches on, there are likely a LOT of these shoe holders waiting to find new homes.
