Paper Herb Garden

I have a beautiful garden. Blooming with veggies and herbs.

And then I woke up.

Truth is: I once had a basil plant that enjoyed a week and a half of green leaves and moist roots. Then it went to herb plant heaven. RIP basil plant. You deserved better.

Considering my knack for plant homicide, I’ve decided to bring you a few creative, garden fresh crafts that are safe for the worst offenders. The trick for these projects is to avoid any actual plants. Enter: plantable paper! I’m obsessed with this stuff. Back in the day when Damask Love was just a baby, I did a blog post about making your own plantable paper. If you’d prefer a quicker solution, you can take a trip over to Greenfield Paper, where they have a ton of plantable paper options.

Paper Herb Garden in a Box | Damask Love BlogTo create a “paper herb garden” I die cut leaves from assorted sheets of plantable paper and tied the leaves onto tags, then arranged them into an oblong box.  The paper leaves can be planted and will sprout fresh herbs and veggies.

As an accompaniment to the herb tags, I used Martha Stewart Crafter’s Clay to create herb stakes. They are super easy to do…trust me. Paper Herb Garden in a Box | Damask Love Blog

{1} Roll out the crafter’s clay

{2} Stamp the clay with the border frame, pressing firmly to leave an impression, but not so firmly as to go all the way through the clay.

{3} Stamp the herb name, again pressing firmly to leave an impression.

{4} Be sure that your impressions are deep enough to be read clearly.

Cut out the frame with scissors

{6} Allow your herb tags to air dry over night.

{7} Add some dimension to the herb tags by adding paint. I opted for metallic paint, but you can use whatever you like!

{8} Allow the paint to dry fully.

{9} not pictured Adhere the completed tag to a skewer with craft glue.
