Urban Gardening

November 18, 2009 by Minnie 1 Comment

photo.jpgDriving around Oakland last week I noticed this Urban Gardening project on the side of a warehouse. Someone nailed some fabric to some bards, filled the pockets with dirt and plants and attached it to the side of a building down a side alley. There was also this little box with a sign that said ‘Love Letters Only’. Nice!

Over at Blade Diary you can see projects of making planters out of unused newspaper/flyer boxes.

Have you noticed any urban gardening projects in your area?

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
