Instructions
Write the name of your vegetables, fruit, or herbs into the soft side of your driftwood using a black Sharpie.
Use your colourful Sharpies to draw the matching picture next to the name of the vegetable, fruit, or herb.
Carefully hot glue the back of the driftwood pieces to the top front of the wooden dowels leaving a ¼″ of the dowel sticking out on top.
Now glue a piece of hemp twine to the back of the dowel and begin wrapping it around in an X shape from the back of the dowel around the driftwood.
Cut the end of the twine off, and secure the end with hot glue to the back of the dowel.
Place into your soil next to your vegetables, fruit, or herbs.
This will help identify the veg as they grow. It’s that simple. A fast, fun, and cost effective way to make Vegetable marking fun!
