When it comes to the garden, we're always on the look out for a simple DIY project that makes an impact. This project keeps things simple with a creative repurposing of your leftover wine corks.

Saving your corks for plant markers is an easy way to identify the needs of your plants and put your corks to use without much hassle. You can even use them year to year with a little sand paper to remove your previous marker notes. Check out more on drilling out the holes and turning your corks into stakes from Rachel Hollis over at My Chic Life.

super and nice idea :)
love it. m
This is rather charming -- infinitely more so than those plastic things that come from the nursery -- but do you really need a sign in order to recognize your basil? For me, this would be akin to putting a sign on my front door that said "DOOR".
Pippigirl--I tend to use plant labels so that my husband will find the right herbs and veggies when I send him out to harvest while I am cooking. Learned that lesson the hard way.
@Pippigirl, you also use plant markers so perennial plants that die down over winter are marked and you don't accidentally plant something new on top of them before they reappear. I need to do that with tulips and hostas...
Very cute! Tks for sharing.
adorable but....
a drill? really? for a bit of cork & a bamboo skewer?
