$4 Charging Station

To make an effective charging station@for only $4, I used an outlet strip ($3) and a basket ($1).  The outlet strip was plugged in behind and chargers into it.  The strip was held in place with double-sided tape.  Cords were threaded through the weave of the basket and labeled with a labelmaker.  Phones can sit in the basket or be clipped to the side.  I also plan to add a homemade bean bag pillow to weight down the basket and to cushion the phones.

Recycled Plant "Boxes"

I had someold palettes that I decided to recycle into small boxes to go around my plants to keep the rock mulch off of them.
