purchase 15 to 20-gauge wire from your local hardware store. cut the wire into 12″ strips. with some needle nose pliers, carefully twist one end of the wire into swirls and other shape that will hold the alphabet beads. string the beads on to the wire and place the straight end of the wire into the ground where your herb garden lays. either way, your herb garden will look organized and pretty throughout the summer months.
