Fabulous window sills

I've had a couple inquires about window sill gardening. So, when looking into it a little more, I learned that there are soooo many cute things you can do to have a simple window sill garden if you are sans balcony. 


Herbs can usually thrive indoors. Plants like chives, parsley, rosemarylavender, basil, mint and thyme are all great choices. They all will require watering (duh), but be sure and don't over water! Herbs don't like sitting in water, and can easily develop root rot. A monthly fertilizer is a good idea too. Try to find some organic alternatives- there are plenty out there! My mom uses fish emulsion and turkey compost for her fabulous farm, Natural Springs Garden.


Here are some really cute ideas for window sill gardens! I {lurve} this idea and am going to plant some of the more fragrant herbs in my room!
