The plant markers that I made a few years ago are still good but they get hidden by the plants as they grow so I wanted something new and taller this year...
so I made up a bunch of garden tags using wooden tags that are the size of giant popsicle sticks or miniature paint stirrers that I got at HobbyLobby. The only other thing I used were cheap acrylics and a permanent marker...
I started by painting one end straight from the bottle, then without cleaning my brush I added a second color in the middle, blending a bit with my finger, then adding more of the second color till I got to the other end....
Then I added simple patterns in white...
And last I wrote on them with a black permanent sharpie...
I am really loving the way they turned out!
I would love to know what types of garden tags you use....
and here's a link to the original garden markers I made two years ago...
