Step 1

Paint three clay pots with white multi surface paint. Let dry. Add an additional coat of needed and let dry.

Step 2

For a cosy look, wrap yarn around the handle of the caddy as well as the tops and bottoms of each container.

Step 3

Make a few garden stakes by painting a craft stick white and writing on the sticks with a black marker.
TIP: If you have a Cricut® machine and prefer to use vinyl, that is also a cute option!

Step 4

Fill the pots with dirt and your favourite herbs, then display in your kitchen by a window.
TIP: For a better way to drain the plants, add a ½" [1.3 cm] of sand to the bottom of each galvanized container.
