    I think you've found your niche there EJ!! Along with gardening your pottery skills are amazing. How did you get the lettering put on the labels by the way? It looks so professional.

    Wow!!! I've seen copper plant ID's, but yours are so much better, and would fit in a garden. I'm sure they would encourage my garden to grow better!
    You ought to take a few to a market garden and let folks buy them. You'd get a bidding war going on among the customers.

    Awww shucks, thanks guys. The letters were done using a stamp then I made the groovy veg and critter additions. I'm loving playing with clay! Watch this space.
