Hi everyone!
So, did you get to hit any yard sales this past weekend? Any good thrift store buys? I didn’t hit any yard sales but, our local thrift store had their 50% off everything in the store sale this past Saturday. And I got lots of goodies.
One of the things that I have been looking for every where I go thrifting is different items that could work for containers to make tabletop herb gardens. I want to make an assortment of different little indoor herb gardens to sell at the Farmer’s market this season. I have been collecting different containers throughout this past winter so, I have enough to get me started. Usually these little herb gardens sell pretty good for us, so I need lots of containers.
Here are a couple of thrifted items I picked up to plant herbs in.
Aren’t these wooden boxes adorable! I think they will make such cute little herb gardens! I got two of the larger box and then the smaller one. The smaller one was .99 cents and the two larger ones were $1.50 each.
A pretty vintage FireKing hobnail container. I think I will probably put a peppermint plant in this one. It was .99 cents.
This is such a sweet little lidded china jar. Not sure what I will plant in this one. Probably a mint of some sort or lemon verbena. I will make sure the lid is with it so they can use the jar for something else if they want to. I was $1.35.
This pretty red basket was clearanced to .97 cents at the Christmas Tree Shops. I think it will make a nice planter.
I bought 2 of these cute plant baskets. they were clearanced to $1.99 and are all set for plants.
Now this pretty pink depression bowl is for me. I have a matching sugar bowl that I use everyday. It was $1.25.
This grapevine covered dish is for me as well. It was $1.99. Don’t you love having covered dishes for serving?
And last but not least, is this black tabletop plate holder. This was a curbside freebie! Yup, a little trash pickin’ was done this week! LOL
And let’s check out these fun thrifty posts from last week.

Hi Diann...Nice finds. Couldn't join this week....it was the case of the disappearing posts. All have been returned now, albeit without comments on a post already run. Oh well. Take care and have a nice Saturday. Susan

I love herb gardens, as they are both pretty and practical. Makes sense they are great sellers for you. The pea boxes and that watering can basket are just adorable for little herb gardens.
