Wine Box as a Herb Garden

I am taking a short break from my "chores" to share with you all my new project. A while ago Brandon was given a few empty Wine Boxes to use as home decor. We currently are using two of them as storage for extra electrical cords, DVD's that do not have cases and controllers/accessories for the PS3.

 

The third box, we placed in the awkward space between our cabinets and our ceiling because we were eventually going to use it along with other decorative items to make the space look like it actually served a purpose. Instead... Jack the Cat quickly made it his new bed. He was in heaven. It was high and tight place for him to sleep peacefully.

(Sorry for the fuzzy picture but it was the only one we have of him actually in the box.)

So for the past few weeks, Brandon and I let Jack enjoy his cozy bed. But recently, we noticed he was acting out more and due to the placement of the box he thought he had free roam of the kitchen; which was driving me crazy! We began finding cat hair in the kitchen and we had finally had enough of it. A few days ago Brandon took down the box and reminded me that months ago I mentioned that I wanted to use the extra wine box as a small planter box.

If we owned a home, I would love to have a nice vegetable garden but for now a small herb garden will do. I am really excited for this little project! Now, I need to do a little research about the herbs I would like to plant. Let me know if you have any suggestions!
