Sea Urchin and Wood Slice Succulent Planters

June 8, 2012 By radmegan 15 Comments

I’ve really been missing that satisfying feeling that comes with completing a craft project. So, I decided I needed to make a handful of small, succulent gardens. I drilled out shallow wells in some Juniper wood slices I’d been saving and started potting up a few wee gardens. 
While I was at it, I finally potted up one of the Sea Urchin Shells I’d picked up during my beach-wanderings…
My giant quilt is still not finished, nor is my mom’s chicken coop
…but at least I have a pile of little planters to let my imagination run wild in-  as well as the feeling that I’m finishing projects again. Insert massive sigh of relief here!


Oh and P.S. These are for sale in my etsy store.

    They look fabulous! The sea urchin shell is particularly clever.

    These look INCREDIBLE! I love the idea of using recycled tree trunk as the base for the succulents. I will most DEFINITELY be doing this next spring. Beautiful!

    Often occasions individuals suffering kind sciatica won’t do loads of research about their choices
    because they simply need to search out someone to help them get out
    of ache as quick as doable. By combining a number of non-surgical strategies and treatments, we give patients the most
    effective chance of returning to lively living with out ache (and without resorting to riskier methods!).
    I wished to explain among the common causes of Neck ache and how Non-surgical spinal decompression can help.
    Non-surgical Cervical spinal decompression works on the identical principal
    as Spinal decompression for the low back. The affected person will bear
    a collection of evaluations and decompression sessions, using the DRX9000,
    adopted by Ice and STIM therapy. Pain will not be felt until the herniated or bulging disc comes involved with a nerve.
    Pain can vary from barely noticeable to excruciating.
    This has loads to do with what your body can handle.

    Well that is a lot to think about and that is just an abbreviated pattern report.
