Last week we featured a neat DIY for using recycled bottles as hanging vases. Today we feature this idea to the extreme — design studio, Rosenbaum, designed this garden as an inexpensive small space solution for growing herbs and spices.

The project was part of a home design TV series, Home Sweet Home, that redesigns homes for families in need. This family was already growing plants in recycled food packaging, so the idea was a hit, in fact it was so sucessful with viewers that Rosenbaum published a how-to tutorial. All you need is emptied and cleaned 2-liter PET bottles, scissors, clothesline rope, twine or wire, and two washers per bottle.
