| Seeing the thumbnail picture, I wondered how the bottom would be. When I peeped in to the blue jeans [in the main article], I saw what I wanted!! LOL. There were concealed containers to hold the soil and I am very impressed with this new creation. Very nice idea! Thanks Mel.

| Can't wait to make one of these from those jeans that won't ever fit again, no matter how much I wish they would! :/
From the photos, it looks like the leg bottoms have been sewn together, but you never mentioned that.
This is such a creative idea. I love it!

| No, the leg bottoms are open. They just hang naturally.
Thanks for the compliments. And yes, we all have that beloved pair of jeans that deserves to be enshrined as a memorial to a size we will never see again. |

| LOVE IT! Thanks for the great idea! I always have a hard time parting with my 6 year old boys jeans, but they are always to worn to pass on. This will make a great conversation piece! I think I'll plant some of DH's old work boots and place them under some of his old work jeans and hang them at the family farm. |

| I was reading today's article and then clicked past articles ...my eyes landed on this one. I hadn't seen it back in 2008 I guess. Great idea, and I would add a pair of suspenders to hold it up. |

| Good to see your face after all these years too Melody. You need to put it on your id page instead of the quilt. |
