I love collecting jars. I never know what to do with them, but none the less I have jars. I store my craft supplies in them. Buttons, tiles, beads, bottle caps. It's organized craft hoarding. Pickle jars are a popular size in my collection so that's what I started with. The chatted up a lady at Joanne's craft store about this paint. I didn't want chalkboard paint, or glossy enamel, but it needed to stick to glass and be matte. She suggested this. (Thank you nice lady it was exactly what I wanted). I decided to make fake labels, so I just masked the off an area with tape and painted. These are not perfect labels. Who cares. I needed a second paint to actually write the label, which I didn't buy. Update later
. Ta-da. Jars with labels. Now for the herb garden. I used some pebbles from my garden walk (shhh don't tell hubby). And some tiny broken tiles for drainage. It's a must have. Something for drainage. Your herbs will not grow. Potting soil was next and then I purchased some stater herbs. Today I used cilantro and cinnamon basil. Seeds will work to, but I'm impatient. I wanted the full effect today. Next time seeds. So now I just added the plants, water and a sunny spot. You can do this. It's easy. Who has a project for all these lids I will have left over?
