Instead of throwing all of your newspaper into the recycling bin when you’ve finished with it, how about turning it into seedling pots?
The Burgon & Ball Paper Pot Maker (£12.99) is a kit that lets you make pots for young plants in three sizes: 3cm, 4.75cm and 6cm diameter. The templates are made from FSC-certified wood, and it is easy to wrap newspaper around them to form the pots. And, of course, when you have finished with the paper pots, they can be composted.
Burgon & Ball supplies a number of other plastic-free gardening accessories too.
