Wordless Wednesday – My DIY Plant Sticks

1,297 views

So, my gardens are starting to get the best of me time wise so please pardon any weeds you may or may not see in my garden.

I have a lot of plants. With the tags they came with looking like this I was constantly explaining to people what they all were.

As you may have heard on facebook this was my first outdoors DIY. I made the mistake of just grabbing the kids washable paint since it was on hand. Well, it washed off the first time it rained.

So I redid them this time with good Behr paint with primer. They are actually purple even though they don’t look it.

Don’t they look good next to all my herbs?

I made 22 total and now I’m working on larger ones for my main garden. Total cost for both projects $7 (and I bought way more paint then I needed).

Please take a moment and vote for me to attend BlogHer with Lovable Labels. I wrote my story of my struggle through postpartum depression and it made the finals. Please vote for me here.

    That was a great idea! I like the way it looks, and I’m sure leads to a lot less questions asked

    Great idea! It’s certainly easier to tell what’s what with your plant stick than the tags that come when you buy the plants. I love ‘em.

    I like the black and white against the colors of the garden. It is simple and yet stands out.
