This DIY Herb Drying Rack is perfect for the Cook, Gardener or anyone that just loves Herbs in their daily cooking and loves a pretty new wall hanging for the Kitchen.

 

Let’s start with a 12 inch piece of 1 inch piece of pine (you can use anything that you love)… now give this wood a really good sanding.

 

 

Once you get the wood sanded to your liming measure out 4 sections and then make an X from point to point to find the center for your drill marks.

Time to drill the holes… I used bit size 13/64th’s and it worked perfectly.

Once you have the wood you are using all sanded and drilled… it’s time to give it a paint treatment of choice, stain or even decoupage.

 

 

If you choose to use an embellishment in back of your knobs… now is the time to paint them or stain them.  You can find items like this in your local craft stores or even on Etsy.  You could also use plain round circles that are sold everywhere and paint them in a complimentary color… paint a design on it… maybe polka dots… flowers or maybe even decoupage them… once again the sky is the limit

 

 

Gorilla Glue (or use whatever strong glue you have… even wood glue or Elmer’s) and apply strategically over the hole.  If you have knobs that do not require drilling… you can use Gorilla Glue or any MAJOR Adhesive to apply them.

 

 

Now screw or glue your knobs on!

 

 

There are so many options… you can even use plain wood knobs that you find in the craft store for 2 for a dollar… treat them with whatever flair you want and just glue them on.

 

 

Maybe add some Crystal?

 

 

Hanging Options:

You can screw in an eyelet on each top end of the wood and string Jute though to form a hangers

 

 

Wrap up you little bundles of herbs and hang!

Use a Sawtooth Hanger… My knobs were a little long so i added a furring strip to the back for depth and screwed in two sawtooth hangers and it worked like a charm

It is totally your choice on your hanging method

 

 

 

So Pretty!
