Agreed. You don't need to spend $20 on a potmaker. You have an assortment of them in your kitchen. I used a pineapple juice can for the smaller ones and a cornstarch can for the larger ones.

One thing that I did do different was to fold the tops in as well. So say that you expect to fill your pots with growing medium within about a quarter of an inch of the top of the pot --you'd fold the top half-inch of newspaper inward. It helps stabilize the pot, and the growing medium holds it down so that it doesn't flip back up.
