Make Your Own Garden Seed Stakes
Here is a great idea for my new crop of indoor herb seeds.
I'm not a big gardener but a few herbs started from seed puts me in the Spring-time mood.
In my yard were hundreds of broken branches from the very long winter.
After reading a past issue of Martha Stewart Living Magazine, I finally had a good use for these sticks.
I started out by breaking off a handful of sticks, all about the same length.
I gathered the tools needed for this project.
A pruner and a potato peeler.
Note: Your may need a new potato peeler after this!
Next I got to work cutting... I trimmed the ends of each stick and used the potato peeler to shave off several slices of the bark.
Using permanent marker, I wrote the names of the plant on each stick.
A spritz of spray Poly will keep the letters from fading in the sun.
Stick the stakes in the soil and you're ready to grow!
Ready for some Spring-time herb planting!
PIN IT!
Perfect for new seeds or to just organize your garden!
