Ombre Garden Markers

Ombre Garden Markers @craftgossip

Each year I get better and better at gardening. I don’t have a full fledged garden flagged off in my yard, but I do have some tomatoes in containers, a huge planter full of many different herbs, and a few things scattered in with my shrubs and flowers. So, keeping them all straight means using plant markers.

Ombre designs have grown in popularity over the last few years. From lamp shades to dressers and everything in between, varying shades of one color in gradient style is a fun way to add a little pizzazz. So, when I came across this fun project from Love Them Madly for ombre style garden markers and knew you would appreciate them as well!

I do not have a green thumb at all, in fact, I have been known to ruin a plastic plant (long story) but  I do love how calm and serene it can be working in a quiet garden.
