Ideas wanted for fancy plant/herb labels

I think the liquid chalk is waterproof. Good idea re the blackboard paint though tamsin.

Thanks for all the ideas and suggestions, lots of great ideas.

I was thinking of cobbling up my own version of the blackboard label idea. Perhaps I could try and get a couple of black vinyl floor tiles, cut them with a Stanley blade into rectangles, put them on dowels/sticks/canes and write on them using liquid chalk or silver and gold pens as per taff's suggestion. That way I could label all the herb pots at different heights.

Now I need to find a couple of back vinyl floor tiles.

What about using some old roofing slates and white liquid chalk ?

I wish I had as much time as you lot!!

I always save thin rippings (offcuts) of oak for the purpose. I often have miles of the stuff... try going to a joinery workshop and asking.

I once did a posh batch with teak oil etc for a comp but just burn used ones these days.

What can I say? It's a tough life in the sticks...nothing much to do but chase sheep [for blokes] and dress up like sheep [for women]...Any other entertainment is a bonus!!
