Default Blinds

Top Tip
don,t throw away those venitian blinds if you cut them into 6 to 8 inch strips they make excellent plant labels
the later wooden ones are even better

Good idea cheshire61 ( you originally local perchance??? )

Any recommendations on water-resistant/ permanent pens to go with them???
Whatever I seem to use seems to fade/rub off...

Welcome to the madhouse by the way!!!....
