Garden Herb Pot

Featured in the Spring 2016 edition of Living magazine.


Put those empty TrimShake containers to use by making them beautiful post for your herbs.

 

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • Empty TrimShake containers
  • Paint of choice*
  • Potting soil mix
  • Herb plant of choice

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Using Lemon essential oil and a scrub sponge, remove the container label.
  2. Spray paint the outside of the clean container. 
    Tip: Apply multiple thin coats of paint, allowing each coat to dry between each application. If using spray paint, make sure to follow instructions on the bottle.
  3. Once your pot is completely dry, fill it about half way with soil. With your hands, make a hole approximately 2 inches in diameter. Remove the plant out of its nursery container, gently spread its roots, and place it in the hole. Add additional soil on the edges to cover the roots.
  4. Water the plant, then gently press down the soil to eliminate air pockets, add more soil if necessary, and then water again. 
    Tip:  doTERRA On Guard® Laundry detergent containers work great for watering.
  5. Punch holes in bottom of pot for water drainage.


    *We used stone textured and sunrise matte colored spray paint
