That is a great idea Rick. I can put the markers in the ground in all the places where I planted seeds, then attach them to the plants when they get big enough to have something hanging around their necks. I have found a few markers from last year. Unfortunately not useable because the roommate apparently attacked them with the pitchfork when turning everything over in the fall. It is amusing.
Now i can't wait until the wind dies down so I can get started on some projects without being blinded by debris.
Next year I plan to use cut up strips from milk jugs as markers. Only because I can't think of anything else we use regularly enough to get enough material to make markers. And speaking of which, I just had an idea for all the small coffee cans we have been saving. I haven't thought it would be safe to use them as planters, although they are about the perfect size. I have been using a few for my dried herbs. I take the lid off the lavender can often because it smells so wonderful.
Darn wind storms makes me want to nap all day.
