Airplant

This was a suprising early birthday present from Cindy! It is an ultra sleek and cute airplant that is placed inside a glass container. Airplants absorb water on their leaves so you actually mist it to water it. Distilled water is preferred so that there is no mineral build up in the glass. I love this! And it is always such a joy to look at!

Magnet Container

March 2010. I bought this magnetic plant container in taiwan. I love the little tea pot shape! The magnet is super strong and there is actually drainage built in! Looking forward to finding a nice tiny succulant to plant in it.


April 2010. With a succulent donation from Cindy (thank you!) I've planted something into the magnetic container! This hen and chick succulent is the perfect size for this plant. It is so cute, and the inner pot even has drainage!

Swinging Succulents

This is a cute way to display tiny plants! I found it at a night market in Taiwan. The center piece actually swings! I will probably repaint it white or sage though when I have time. It was actually pretty hard to get these tiny hens and chicks succulents into the mini pots. I ended up just throwing dirt on top of them, using a popsicle stick to settle the dirt around them, and then using a small make up brush to dust off the dirt on the leaves. I'm hoping they will stay this size! Credit again to Cindy for the plant donation!

Magnetic Kiss

These are two magnets that stick to each other and let you hold phots and notes. I thought they were so cute, especially the little spout of water on the tops of their heads!

Panda Cellphone Case

I bought this case in taiwan at a night market. it is so adorable! my favorite part is where it says "I want," then a picture of some bamboo. It's not the most professional case for my blackberry, but it's so cute, who cares!

Cakes (Or are they?)

I bought these in Taiwan (at a bookstore of all places) for Mom and Grandma. They are actually face towels! that are wrapped up to look like pastry cakes. Too cute!

Totoro & Friend on a Grassy Knoll

I found this in Sogo in Taipei. It's a stuffed grassy knoll where Totoro and his white furball friend hang out. I love the white furball, so when I saw this, I had to get it. There is actually a hole in the trunk that Totoro can go in and out of.
