PLANT MARKERS







I was inspired by the plant markers that I saw on http://www.heavypetal.ca/ the other day. They ranged from cute to kitsch and all cost a pretty penny. My recycle light bulb went off and I decided to create my own from old coffee packaging (yes, again) and used Popsicle sticks (previously sucked thanks to my children).
To make the markers cut silver coffee wrappers into 1" by 5" strips, fold in half and sew down sides using a zig-zag stitch. Insert Popsicle stick and write plant name in an indelible ink. Pop into soil next to plant and enjoy!
