How to Make Garden Stakes

Garden stakes are markers that you place at the head or foot of a row to show what's planted there.  You can make stakes for every vegetable type in your garden.

Supplies
old wooden spoons
paint
markers
glue
seed packets
scissors

Begin by painting your wooden spoon in one solid color.  With scissors, cut out the picture on the front of your seed packet.  You might decide to cut out just the vegetable photo, or you may want to use it as a model and paint a picture of vegetable directly onto the spoon.  Use the glue to stick the packet onto the spoon.  When you're finished, "plant" your spoons handle-end first into the ground.
