Herb Drying Rack

  • Completed Project: Herb Drying Rack Picture #1

Quick and easy drying rack

I have my first real garden this year and I wanted somewhere to dry my herbs. So I came up with this the other night using things I could find around my house.

  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    First I cut an egg carton in half leaving a few of the little flaps for hanging up the rack.

  2. Step 2

    Step 2

    I used the top of the carton and cut a piece of fabric a few inches longer than it. (You could also paint or decoupage it.) Then I glued the fabric on and wrapped it around to the back. I cut the fabric at each corner so it wrapped around smoothly.


  3. Step 3

    Step 3

    I used paper clips to hold the fabric on while the glue dried.

  4. Step 4

    Step 4

    Then I screwed these looped screws in. I'm not sure what they are called, but they came with a picture hanging kit. Nails or screws would work fine. I glued them in the back and let it dry.


  5. Step 5

    Step 5

    Then I nailed it on a wall through the little flaps and hung the herbs up! I usually use clear nylon thread to hang them, but you can use just about anything.
