An Egg Carton Garden
Egg carton gardening - the easiest way to grow stuff! Simply put some potting mix in an egg carton, plant seeds in the mix, water, watch and wait! You can later transplant your seedlings by cutting apart the egg cups and planting them directly (egg carton and all) into the garden.

Button Blossoms
Gather up some buttons and wool and create a blossoming tree! You could also just cut out small circles of paper, or use scrunched up bits of tissue paper to the same effect.
