Crocs are a comfortable and durable enough choice for footwear but our taste for them may tire sooner than they do. Some companies, like Whole Foods, have Crocs recycling programs where you can turn your Crocs in when you or them have had enough. Another easy alternative is to craft a planter out of them by simply nailing them to a tree, hanging them, or even just setting them in the garden. The ventilation holes work perfectly for water drainage as well.
Also a perfect use for kids that have outgrown a pair as was the case with these red beauties we found over at Full Circle.

About the Author:
Doug is in perpetual motion and a self-proclaimed adventure junkie, that has had a longtime love affair with the great outdoors.
“I love being a part of the active world. The stuff that blows my hair back is adventure (all shapes and sizes), photography, mountaineering, Muay Thai, and seeing natural beauty in all its forms. The living earth is the framework on which I build my life and free time. My ideal trip would be BASE jumping at Sotano de Las Golandrinas in Mexico (closest I could come to skydiving through the jungle!). I work towards keeping it real, green, and healthy. ”
Doug is the co-founder of LiveOAK, although he says he didn’t know what a blog was until a couple months after he started.
