Recycle - Glass plate and turntable from microwave

By Hklbrries

Hey, Heloise: When my old microwave broke, I wondered what I could do with the glass plate and turntable — it seemed like they would be good for something. After they sat in my basement for a year, I finally came up with the perfect use: a plate for a heavy potted plant. The lip of the plate protects the floor or table below from overwatering.

The turntable allows me to easily spin the plant so that all sides can get equal sunshine. Now my plant grows straight instead of bending in one direction toward the light. I can’t wait for my current microwave oven to break so I can have another! -- Charles W., Plainfield, N.J.
