I'm thinking this is just the beginning of my crazy obsession with potted succulents......all thrifted believe it or not. So good for my home environment and my wallet but most pleasing of all is that where I choose to spend my money helps others......it's an all round win in my opinion......
Whether they are hanging in vintage macrame hangers or swanning around my deck I am truly head over heels for them......
You just don't find this kind of crazy at your average hardware store or nursery either!
I upcycled a few white plastic tubs that my husband uses for painting and potted some of the succulents into those until I find a more permanent replacement. Cheap and cheerful......a bit like me......and I like it!!!
One of my favourite things to do is pair pretty vintage lace metalwork pots with striking architectural style plants......to me it's a perfect match and a visual treat......I think the white pots make the greenery look really fresh too......you like?
What are you potty for at the moment?
LOVE Tania XX
PS. I'll be sharing a mini makeover here tomorrow at my regular Saturday Style Link Party......care to join me???
Hi, I have just discovered you through another blog. You have a beautiful home, gorgeous style and are very entertaining. Knowing you are from Newcastle and while reading your blog I realised you were the lovely lady I just bought lampshades and a floor cushion off. Keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend, Sherie x
Hi Sherie,
DeleteThanks so much......;O)
I hope for your sake I was wearing makeup and not still in my PJ's.
I hope you like your lampshades......I had to make some room amongst my growing collection.
Have a great weekend,
Tania xx
I'm potty for pots too at the moment! Still working on my potted garden out the front...which is going to be comprised of quite a few succulents too because I'm over trying to keep potted flowers alive.
ReplyDeleteThat swan with the aloe vera looks so trippy and cool!

Love it all!!! I'm not much of a gardener...no green thumb here....I manage to kill more than I grow....what are the odds of survival on these beauties???
ReplyDeleteThese ones go allright......even I can grow them ;O)
DeleteOh my goodness, over Christmas I was swooning over a similar swan pot on Ebay that sold for $150+ or something like that... how on earth did you thrift one? You seriously find the best things!.
