I tried the drinking glass newspaper pots (too big), the origami newspaper pots (too big and had to think too hard), and the toilet roll paper pots (good but didn’t start collecting soon enough). So, duh, I just made tiny versions of the drinking glass pots with (don’t tell anyone) a little piece of tape per pot. Very easy and I risk insulting everyone’s intelligence here by posting a how-to, but Ivory assured me that I should do it anyway, so here it is:

  1. Take a section of newspaper:

  1. Cut it in half (I cut several layers at once to save time, but use only one sheet/single layer per pot):

  1. Cut it in fourths:

  1. Take a small round container, I used a spice jar, and roll the paper around it, leaving about an inch overhang at one end where you will fold it in for the bottom. Don’t roll too tight or it will be too hard to get the jar out later:

  1. Fold the bottom in, as if you were wrapping a present:

  1. Tape (masking tape would have been more biodegradeable):

  1. Take out the jar. Turning it right side up, fold in the edges all around the top. I then fold it in again for stability and because I want a shorter pot:

  1. Repeat:
