We have a crazy patch of Mint growing in the sideyard. So much so that I gave it a big haircut in order to tame it and used the trimmings to create a large Mint bouquet for the coffee table. I didn't think of it in the moment (I just felt bad wasting all that Mint!) but it really brought a lovely dash of spring into our space.
Whether potted or cut, herbs in the house is a simple Make/Do project that takes no time at all. Choose a pretty pot or vessel, your favorite herbs, dirt and/or water... gussy it up & you're set. And if potted, make sure your herb-y friends reside near natural light.
Keep scissors handy to snip-snip when your herbs are needed. A mojito, perhaps?
