With my new garden cart in full swing, the herbs I'm growing are growing wild and I needed a way to dry them for future use.

  1. Using a Honey Stain by Minwax (LINK), I stained a small piece of craft wood from Michaels.  I couldn't find it on their site, but this one (LINK) is great because it already has the hanger attached.
  2. I measured out the spots I wanted the pegs to go, then using tacky glue (LINK), glued on the stained wood pegs (LINK)
  3. Finally I used eye hooks (LINK) to attach a piece of twine for hanging.

If you aren't interested in making your own, I found this one online from Wayfair (LINK) which would be great for drying your herbs!

I cut two bunches of basil and one of mint to hang alongside a bunch of dried lavender I had from a craft project.

I love that it's useful and also looks cute!

I made a second one for my daughters room and she uses it to hang her necklaces!  Another option for an easy organizational solution!

The Sunday Letter

Most Sundays, once the house has gone quiet and it's edging towards nine, a letter goes out. It's the one I'd write to a friend with good taste and not nearly enough time: one thing worth reading, one thing worth buying, and one thing to skip. No noise, no pressure to spend, just the considered version of what I've actually been using, loving, or quietly sending back.

If you like the sort of recommendation that still holds up six months later, leave your email below and I'll write to you on Sunday.
