How does your garden grow?
For myself. Not well. However, all of my non-growing garden is accessorized very well! A few years back I was given a gorgeous set of handmade garden labels and have since recreated them numerous times. They are easy to make and a delightful addition to any little garden spot. They are also fabulous for herb gardens!

Supplies:
Spoons
Hammer
Metal square for hammering on
Cloth
Metal stamping set

First I cover the spoon with a cloth before hammering. This helps the spoon not have a scratched up back while hammering.
Next I hammer the spoon until completely flat.
Then I use the metal stamps.  I start with the center of the word and work my way out, so that it will be even. That's it. Easy peesy and completely lovely!
