AmberLee of Giver's Log points us to a tutorial she put together last year for making your own seed tape.

The intent of seed tape as I've seen it is to make planting easier when you have teeny tiny seeds that need to be planted just inches apart (like carrots and radishes). But it's also fun for gifting flower seeds or giving away seeds you've collected from your own garden. And it's a pretty simple and very kid-friendly project.

Such a brilliant gardening idea, and such a nice-looking gift as well. Love it!
