Although my husband and I do have a nice backyard, it’s difficult just to keep our grass alive through the brutal Texas Summers, so this year I decided to bring my essential kitchen herbs indoors and readily available at my fingertips. This was a quick and easy project that my husband and I did together (and had fun doing so!), it turned out so cute, I just can’t stop passing through my kitchen to catch a glimpse.
This is also a great project for anyone with a small apartment or no backyard area, you can also substitute flowers or cactus if you don’t have a green thumb! Make sure your herbs get plenty of sunlight and water once a day.
This entire project cost me around $10.
Here’s what you need to make your own Kitchen Herb Garden:
… and of course, whatever you’ll be planting inside!
Here’s how to create your own Kitchen Herb Garden:
1. Cut and nail trim to board (optional). We found pieces out of the discount bin at the hardware store, spent less than $1!
2. Paint.
3. Measure and hammer in stud covers.
4. Use steel hanger strap coil to screw jars onto board.
5. Label herbs.
6. Plant and hang! Enjoy fresh herbs year around.
I want to give a special thanks this week to my followers who suggested that I start doing craft tutorials in addition to my Episodes. I love ALL crafts, and have millions of ideas for upcoming tutorials that I think you will all love. Don’t worry, I plan on continuing Episodes as well. Thanks for all the support, and like always, please leave any questions or comments for me below. There are plenty of ways to make this project your own, send me some pics if you complete it.
Happy Crafting!

How do you cut the wood for the frame?
Great idea! I’m going to do this project and use some cool old wallpaper for behind the frame part. What were those stud cover things from?
thats really cool how you did the frame around the wood, have you ever made a picture frame?
cool.
i probably can’t keep herbs alive, but I’m going to try anyway, very unique idea.
perfect for my tiny apartment! I think I’ll do 3 different kinds of basil…
