Gardening is one of my favorite activities. Since we are going into the holiday season, I wanted to bring my love of fresh herbs to an elegant, fun holiday table arrangement that our guests can enjoy. During the holiday meal, encourage guests to enhance the savory flavors of soups, salads, sauces, meats/fish/fowl by adding fresh herbs from this table arrangement. For desserts and teas, a fresh sprig of spearmint or peppermint could be added. Some examples of herbs to use:
Red and blue bandanas (you can add white bandanas in too if you like); 4 regular size bandanas should get you about a 50 inch size bannerRope/strong string cut a bit longer on both side than the desired lengthScissorsMason Jars; whatever size you likeBurlap ribbon; 5-inches in widthRed, White, and Blue ribbon; about 1 to 1 ½ -inches in widthWhite paintSmall paintbrushGlue gunScissorsWhite cotton napkins Non-toxic acrylic paint; red, white, and bluePaintbrush; one small foam brush, one small paint brushWater; about 1 cupBowl for water/paint mixture; a mason jar works greatTowel; one you aren’t worried about ruining
