Make It & Take It

Tote your tools, gloves, seeds, ties, stakes, and plants with a garden caddy you make yourself. It’s fast, it’s easy, and it’s inexpensive.

All you need is a big basket (or even a big bucket) and a canvas waist apron with pockets. And there’s no need to buy either of them new since your caddy will be doing a lot of dirty work anyway.

Just secure the apron to the basket by first tying it to the handle and then wrapping the apron ties through the basket weave several times. Fill your caddy with gardening necessities, so you have everything you need to dig in the dirt.

And when planting season turns to harvesting season, your caddy will make it easy to tote cut flowers or fresh vegetables from the garden.
