To make this little herb garden, use 4 empty Caffè Vergnano tins in pastel colors (yellow-pink-green-blue).
First, smooth the sharp edge of the tins with special sandpaper for metals.
Turn the tins upside down and make 5 holes in the bottom with the hammer and nail. This will serve to drain the water from your herb plants.
2
Write the name of each herb plant with a fine black felt-tip pen on the cardboard labels and draw a small detail of the leaf. Color it green.
In our sample herb garden we have mint, basil, thyme and rosemary.
Clip your labels to the skewers.
3
Transplant the herb plants into the coffee tins, fill them with soil and press well.
4
Insert the proper skewer in each herb plant and water before you set them out on your balcony or windowsill.
