Are great for plant markers in the garden!! You can cut them to any legnth you want, if you use a fine point sharpie, the ink wont run in the rain...very "weartherproof", and the awesome thing is, you can get old mini blinds at thrift stores and garage sales all the time!! Probably 50 cents to a dollar a piece, I discovered this 3 years ago when I cleared my laundry room counters to start all my garden seeds, and the index cards i was using only lasted a week or so before they basically "melted"....so, just before i was about to order some goofy, expensive plant markers from gardeners Supply, I found an old blind in my hall closet, and it just came to me!!!! Anyhow, one blind should make enough tags for 2-4 growing seasons, depending on how much you plant!!! Kelley |
