Before & after effect
What’s what? Here’s how to organize your herb garden:
Preparation
You have everything you need? Then get started!
Step 1
Measure the circumference of the planter with the measuring tape.
Step 2
Transfer the measurements taken to the backing paper of the chalkboard film.
Step 3
Clean the planter thoroughly with a cloth.
Step 4
Now use the utility knife and ruler to cut the piece of film along the marking.
Step 5
Peel the backing paper off the chalkboard film, place the edge of the piece of film on the planter and, little by little, press it down smoothly around the pot.
Tip: Use a hairdryer to gently heat the chalkboard film – this will make the film more malleable so that you’ll easily master the curvature of the surface!
Step 6
The finishing touch: now you can use a piece of chalk to custom-mark the chalkboard film and give your green its own name!
You did it!
