Spring is HERE and it’s time to get planting! ‘A bird and a bean’ got our 55th follower! Both are good reasons to celebrate and have a giveaway! Whoo–hoo!
Remember these little beauties? They’re so pretty and perfect for any garden, inside or out. Great for inside an Easter basket or to give to your mama (or yourself) on Mother’s day.
They are really simple to make if you have a stamp set and some vintage silverware. Check out my first post about them and you can learn how to make your very own. Easy Peasy.
Here’s how you can win your own set of 5 hand-stamped vintage garden markers.
1. Become a follower of ‘a bird and a bean’ by clicking the little follow button in the sidebar. Leave a comment that says you did (or already are). Mention what you want to grow this year. (one entry)
2. Share about this giveaway on your own blog and / or on facebook. Leave a comment here that you did. (one entry each.)

I’m a new follower. This is our first year for planting a garden. My 5 year old is helping and I’m hoping it will get her to eat some of what she grows. We have the plant markers from Target dollar spot but these are so much cuter! If I don’t win I’m going to have to find some vintage silverware!! We’re growing green beans, broccoli, carrots, peppers, and lettuce. Now if we can just keep the deer away . . . . .

I just became a follower. I LOVE these garden markers, they are so adorable!!! I was thinking about planting a pizza garden this year. Have you heard of that? You plant tomatoes, basil, oregano, and maybe some other stuff in a big pot and you have all you need to make a fresh homemade pizza right outside your door! These spoons would make an excellent edition to my pizza garden!!
I am posting a link on my facebook to this giveaway.

I Love your spoon garden markers. I Love to garden with my 10 yr. old son. I make a little square in the corner of the garden and he makes his own mini garden with carrots, cucumbers, beans, peas etc. Very rewarding to watch him tend to his own garden and take pride in what he made.

Hi! I’m a new follower — I always grow basil, sage, oregano and chives. This year I’m adding dill and rosemary! I posted your button on my site under Give Aways at the bottom of my page too! I’ve never had a stamp set like yours — but sure looks like something that would be fun to have! Thanks for the post and giveaway!

Erica {B is for Boy} says
I am now following & think these are adorable! We just moved & are just putting in a 20×20 ft garden! I want to grow so much…but I want at least all the ingredients to make salsa. Though, I think these little markers would be more fitting for a little herb garden which I want too!
Erica {B is for Boy} says

I JUST this second stumbled upon your blog and immediately added it to my Google Reader. I also added myself as a new Follower. This year, African basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and Italian parsley are slated for planting in our little herb garden. Sadly, we won’t be planting tomatoes this year. Tomato horn worms: 1 and Gabriela: 0.

My thumb isn’t exactly green so if I got these I’d use them as a decoration for a *cue gasp* fake plant… Or moss….
