Make a Fresh Herb Wreath

Skip the usual cut-and-dry approach to herb arrangements by fashioning a wreath from fresh snippets of greenery. Start with a small wire wreath form and a spool of green florists' wire, available in any craft department. Cut small bunches of thyme, marjoram, oregano, chives, and other favorite cooking herbs.

 Take a generous bunch and wire it to the wreath form with a few turns of wire around the stems. Add a second bunch, overlapping it onto the wired stems of the first bunch. Continue around the wreath form in the same way.

 When your wreath is finished, hang it in the kitchen near the stove, where it's in easy reach for a pinch of this or that.
