Something Grows in the Fold
Fold together your love of recycling and gardening with this clever tool--an acorn-topped wooden dowel designed to create biodegradable pots for seeds, seedlings and young plants. All you need is some old newspaper and you can craft any number of plant pots for all your planting needs. Simply cut dry newspaper into strips, fold in the excess paper underneath, press the folded end onto the base and gently twist to shape the pot. Remove your paper pot, fill with dirt and compost, and you're ready to sow seeds or nurture a seedling! After all, from little acorns DO mighty oaks grow. Made in China.

We're always excited about cool new garden gadgets, so we were thrilled when Josh found this Seed Pot Maker! Would you love to get planting with this handy tool?

cool idea but i wouldn't use it and i don't know anyone who'd want it as a gift.

I like this, I'd definitely use it. It'd make a great gift for some gardening friends.

probably won't be a big seller, but still might prove to be "just the thing" for people trying to find the perfect gift for a green thumb. definitely something worth carrying in the store.

Great gift for those with a green thumb.

just seems needless to have something to shape paper.

a paper shaper?

The acorn-shaped top is too cute. I work at a park and we have used pot makers similar to these in our nature programs. I want one for myself!
Julie

It seems really complicated to use, and the wooden stand is not even used in the final process.

we garden, we start our own seeds...i love the concept would most definatly buy one!!

I find this a wonderful tool for growing your own herbs and seedlings without waste!!!

It looks a little..."suggestive" as well.

Cute idea - but I'm not an avid gardener and don't start my own seedlings

Am I the only one who thought this looks sort of...phallic?

LOVE anything that turns trash into usable goods!
Laura
The most phallic item in your catalog.

I want to giggle like a dirty-minded teenager when I look at this thing. Ok, so I did actually giggle. I mean seriously I could see a guy saying something about his "Mighty Oak".

If made in the US, I'd buy it!

Still not sure exactly how this works, but I still think it is cool.

The pot looks like it would fall apart the first time you watered the seedling. Nice in theory, but I don't see it working.
Elisa
Great idea to not only recycle but to also plant, plant, plant!

I think its a unique concept. I like what it says as well.

It's made in China. :(

It seems unnecessary and the shape is phallic
Sharon
This looks mighty suggestive, and pointless for its purpose. Just get a toiletpaper or paper towel roll and use that. Then recycle it when you're done.
Heidi

i thought this was cute until i realized how phallic it looks. really cute idea though maybe flip the acorn if you could figure out a way
Jennifer

This would be the PERFECT teacher gift at my kids' school. That is their slogan and acorns and oak trees feature prominently as decor and on the grounds. Please carry it!

In concept I love this product. What I don't like is that it is made in China and costs $17. We can be pretty sure that someone is making an enormous profit off these items as things are notoriously cheap to manufacture in China as they "employ" basically slave labor and don't have environmental and other important manufacturing regulations. Something this simple need not cost $ 17 or should we support Chinese manufacturing.

I can buy a lot of peat pots for 17.....besides, it looks obscene!

I like the item! However, wish it was made in America.

I like the concept, but that acorn on top looks a little too suggestive...not something I'd have out in the open!
Jenny
Vote: Thumbs down!
Does it come in different sizes and in a darker stain?
Jess
Vote: Thumbs down!
Maybe if the acorn was flipped...looks...um, well, you know...

I think this is an awesome product however I personall y prefer to purchase items made in America since our economy is worse than China's.

I've been gardening for 20 years and have always wanted one but never bought one for myself. I'd love to get it as a gift!

In this economic climate is this really what people would spend their money on...really? More over, it is made in CHINA. Just say no to anything made in China!

I would LOVE this! The tiny peat pots are seasonal in my area and aren't available year round. Heck, this might even make me start buying newspapers again!

I can think of a few people that would get a kick out of this and the price is guilt free.

Can be market as "Wooden Willy Paper Shaper."

This is a reasonable price and all, but I just don't see why you'd need a thing like this at all. This would be like buying a tool to perfectly shape the ends of your rolled coin rolls - what's the point?
