A podium for the kitchen herb garden

I love fresh herbs in my kitchen and at the moment they are offered cheap everywhere; I like to attack. At home they are repotted first, they need good soil to grow and thrive and then get a decorative place in my kitchen.

For this I have two different variations that change every now and then:

First use the letter rack for kitchen herbs (Photo 1)

Once again, a previously much-used helpful item has been made redundant through renovations. However, before I dispose of something carelessly, I always consider some time, for which it might possibly still be useful.


This time it hit a letter tray with three drawable in both directions (Ikea), which I no longer needed in the form. But there were in my kitchen just these many herb pots, which would do well to put them nicely arranged in scene. Said and done.

I think, the pictures for advice are self-explanatory.

Depending on your mood, you pull out the individual compartments and place the pots on them.


2. Metal shelf hanging baskets (Photo 2)

This one gets very cheap for 3 Euro / piece, they do good in cabinets and you can turn them around? to use as a small shelf.

I have to restore the balance to the pots, the two "bars". the shelf-hanging baskets, so the parts that are pushed onto a shelf, something bent apart, so that the basket was behind it a little higher than the front. The heaviness of the pots makes up for this again.

Right, You can just put the pots on the windowsill or on the worktop. Basically, and in the absence of a windowsill, I found it more appealing to make my little herb garden a practical and space-saving eye-catcher.
