chalkboard pots

I saw these on snippet and ink recently. These pots used to be available at pottery barn, but I can't find them anymore. So I suppose if you were in the mood for a project (always) you could paint a pot with some chalkboard paint to make your own. Anyway, isn't this a very great idea for: 1. a party favor 2. a guest's place card 3. a christmas gift for a friend, neighbor or coworker 4. an herb garden (each herb labeled on the pot)
