Found a tiny blog about repurposing old denim into gardening gear

I used to just toss old jeans in the donation pile when the knees blew out. But last spring I stumbled on this blog called "Denim Dirt" with maybe 20 posts, and this lady from Oregon showed how she turns worn-out jeans into kneeling pads and seed bag organizers. The step she did with cutting the waistband off to use as a handle for a tote actually worked perfect for my raised beds. Has anyone else found a super niche blog that actually changed how you do something practical around the house?

That waistband trick totally saved my tomato trellis bags from sagging apart this season.

Oh man I love that the waistband trick worked for someone else's tomatoes too. I took it further and started using the leg seams as ties for staking my pepper plants since that double stitch holds up way better than twine in wet weather.
