Miniature Garden Party of Herbs
So, my fascination with miniature gardening that started last year has carried over into this year and my new herb garden came out looking like a small-scale garden party. {Click here to see my first miniature garden of herbs I did last year.}
My drink tub-turned-container garden worked great last time, so I just cleaned it out and started over.
Re-using some of my little accessories from last year and adding a new little garden bunting made from scrap fabrics, I came up with the little fairy garden party of herbs.
I used these little slate plant markers from West Elm as well, although I found out that my chalk markers showed up much better for labeling than the crayon that came in the package. For another fun way to label your herbs, click here.
Simple, yet enchanting– even for life-sized people!
I’ve already made a few great fresh herb recipes that I’ll share with you later, but for now, I’m sharing this with some of these friends!
And for some tips on growing and harvesting herbs, check out this post I recently found on Pinterest.

So cute! I was planning on making a container herb garden out on my patio too- just never thought I'd make it look cute as well! But now I will! Thanks for the inspiration!

I love it. The kids and I are doing fairy gardens this summer and I can't wait to get started.
What brand chalk pens do you use? I bought some the other day but they just didn't work very well.

Mine are Marvy Uchida brand from Hobby Lobby. They're called Bistro Chalk Markers 🙂
