DIY Chalkboard Garden Markers

diy chalkboard garden markers gift

The holiday season is upon us (already!) and I already feel a bit behind on decorating and gift shopping. If you’re like me, I love giving handmade things to friends and family for Christmas. If you are looking to be thrifty, give a unique gift, and let someone know you care, I encourage you to give handmade this season.

I am very excited to announce a little series I will be doing. I will feature a simple DIY handmade project you can make and give. It’s starting today and will continue daily until Christmas day.

Here’s the first gift!

About a month ago Kevin and I built a raised, box garden in our backyard. We are lucky to be able to still have such warm temperatures that we can start a garden in November! I was looking for a unique way to identify my plants and here’s what I came up with.

This is the perfect gift for your friend with a green thumb… or someone who would love to start a garden.

Supplies:
• Large popsicle sticks, tounge drepessors, or fan handles (I used I had on hand from making  programs for clients)
• Chalkboard paint or black acrylic paint (chalkboard paint can be pricey, I just used some black acrylic paint I had on hand)
• White china marker (a cheap, oil-based pencil you can purchase at an art supply store)
Cost: $1.00
