Hanging Herb Planters


My house was built in the 1960s and is a little rectangular ranch with high windows and no window sills. Not good if you have cats (mine are confined to two large windows in the whole house) and not good if you like houseplants. I've seen a lot of really cute hanging planters recently, and came across this idea for attaching them to the cupboard. It's perfect if you want an herb garden in the kitchen but don't have wall space or a sill. Here's how I did it.

Supplies
Small plastic pots - Mine are from Ikea
Herbs
Command hooks - I bought the ones that hold up to 3 pounds, just in case
Drill
Drill bit - I used a 3/8" wood drill bit
