I had this idea two years ago and did it myself. It looked great for a few months that summer but after then it had to be taken down as the mildew made it not so pretty!

I am not giving up but think that next time I will try coating the material with an outdoor fabric protector to make it more waterproof. I just want to be sure that it doesn't impart a toxic impact to the herbs. Perhaps I will stick to flowers if I can't be sure of that since I prefer to go organic and any chemicals make me weary.

I have a few more of those shoe holders which I find tedious for actual shoe storage as it needs cleaning pretty often and many of my shoes are too big to fit in the little pockets!
