DIY Herb Garden Mother's Day Gift

A favorite Mother's Day idea... a thrifted herb garden...




I had the perfect box, thank you Goodwill!
and painted it black...



I printed out the word "herbs" from my computer...



and transferred the word to the box using graphite paper...
(This is a step up for me, I usually use the "scribble with pencil" on the back approach...)


Then I hand-painted the word...



Next I distressed and antiqued the box...



I used copper plant markers to identify the herbs and some
Spanish Moss to cover the plastic I used to line the box.




Beautiful!



Happy Mother's Day Mom!
