Check out these plant markers I made using free counter-top samples, a clothespin and some wire.
(My totem is about 3 years old; I have it on a table on my porch because it kinda looks like a lamp.)
For the plantmarkers, I first spray-painted the little boards with black chalkboard paint (my first intention was to make the chalkboard tags like Margo does on robojunker.com but I wasn't happy with the texture mine came out with. So next time, I'll probably just use plain black paint.) Then I printed off the plant names and decoupaged them onto the tag with Mod-Podge. I attached a 16-gauge wire to the clothespin and viola. Here's a close-up.
Instant cute-ness!
Have a bloomin' day!

Very cute idea! Love the font too!
What a great plant tag idea, I will add it to my list of winter jobs to do and have some ready for next years garden.
What font did you use?
Currently it seems like Wordpress is the best blogging platform available
right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?
