Chalkboard Terra Cotta Herb Pots

 Since I've been taking care of my mom at the nursing home rehab (hopefully we'll have good news next week) I've been lax in getting things done around the house.   So I decided to repost this little chalkboard project I did last summer.  

I'm hoping to get back to some projects soon...but right now my mom is my #1 priority.

I decided I’d make myself some little herb pots to sit on my kitchen window….it makes me look like I’ve gone all organic in the kitchen!   So I headed to Michael’s and got these three little pots and picked up three larger ones for another project later.    Then I got some herbs at Home Depot.    I wanted to get some that I might really use while cooking.    I’m going to add lavender or rosemary because they smell so good.

I’m going to replace the little plant info stickers with plant markers….something like these….

(Please forgive my unstyled plate rack and shelves….most of my dishes were in the dishwasher and I took these early in the morning before I left for work….thus an empty cabinet!)

HAPPY MAY 1ST!
