Got some guttering left over from a construction job? Don’t throw it out! Here are some great ways to reuse and recycle this valuable resource.

Grow your herbs in the kitchen where you need them most. Just a few lengths of guttering can help you to create a hanging herb garden on a wall or in a window.

A few lengths of plastic guttering can help you to organize and separate your tools so you’re not wasting time scratching through your tool bag when you need a pliers. Use a glue gun to create a rack that you can also use in your garage or workshop.

Gutters make the perfect shelving for books, spices, decorative plates and jars in the home. They are perfect for storing wire, saw blades and bottles of fasteners in the workshop.

Slightly angling the gutters in this build means water can run from the top to the bottom, making watering your crop easy. They are perfect for small flowers, greens, herbs and strawberries.
