I mentioned in a previous post that the dollar store is great for inexpensive plant-care finds. I use these cheap salt and pepper shakers to root plant pieces that have fallen off or don’t have roots yet.

For $1.50, you can’t beat it!

I get most of mine at the dollar store with the exception of a few more expensive ones that I couldn’t resist but that little mini mason jar one was the good one $1.25 at the dollar store and of course they only had one left but I just think it’s so freaking cute!!

My favorite place to shop is goodwill \& garage sales!
