Hey now THAT is a neat idea I'd not thought of. Cool!!! :-)
Since I have a live herb garden, that idea will come in handy.
Especially for rosemary!

Metal tea balls come in many configurations and sizes. The perforated
metal ones are okay but I prefer the ones made of wire mesh. Make sure
to get those made of stainless steel, not aluminum. And those with a
latch catch hold up better than the screw closure. And for clean up
they go in the dishwasher. I have quite an assortment, for spice I
have a couple of big balls in my drawers.

Steel balls made by Ben Wa work best I would think?
