3. Water Plants With A To-Go Coffee Cup
Supplies needed: a clean coffee cup for on-the-go hot beverages
Making Cost: $0*

Because they don’t need a lot of water to survive, plants like cacti and aloe vera benefit greatly from this trick. As always, make sure the water level in your coffee cup corresponds to the plant you’re watering; you don’t want to overwater or submerge your plants.
