Create a unique collection of your favorite herbs to showcase in style with this quick and easy vignette. Late summer is the ideal time to pot up herbs to bring indoors for winter use. Grab a few supplies and let's get started!
I absolutely LOVE growing herbs! They're some of the easiest plants to grow in the garden, smell amazing, and have tons of uses in the kitchen, medicine cabinet, and craft projects.
Basil is particularly easy to propagate by simple cuttings. Just trim a stem, put it into a glass of water, and within a few days roots will appear. Within a week or two, you 'll have a strong root system, ready to be planted.
My admiration for all things Italian inspired this collection, which included basil, thyme, and oregano. With plants collected I only needed a few other supplies: clay pots and a tray, potting mix, pea gravel, and a pretty ribbon.
My new herbs were able to enjoy the rest of the summer outdoors before getting moved inside for winter use. By spring, they were ready to move back out into the garden for the new growing season.
