Toads are great for your garden and help eat bugs, so why not make them a cute little DIY house to make them feel right at home?

@newlifestyleabb shared these DIY instructions on TikTok to make your very own toad house. It is important to use a terracotta pot because it will stay moist, which is what the toads will like.

First, to make it pretty, she glued some rocks on the pot to make it pretty and hide the imperfections on the used pot. Then, she placed it in her garden and added some dirt to the inside. Then, she took something that used to be a dish soap holder and upcycled it to be used as a water dish for the toads. She buried it a little in the dirt so it would stay in place and then made a cute little rock pathway to the house. How cute!
