plant

My plants would be happier with a piggie friend for when I'm not around.

Did you ever make sunprints as a kid with that crazy probably super toxic blue paper? You lay something on top of it that you want a silhouette of and just leave it in the sun and you get something that looks almost exactly like this cake! This was done with food coloring in an airbrush gun and flowers as a stencil. Incredible effect, and you can eat it!

A live plant can be a great, chic accessory and a handy oxygen generator right under your nose!

Fabric houseplants are totally the way to go. They never drop their leaves out of sadness like real plants.

Tiny apartments can be a real drag when you want to have a garden to tend. Just hang it!

When I was a kid we used to press flowers and leaves in books. Every once in a while I still find a fern or a daisy in an old book. You can get the same feeling without the mildew!

Maybe if you talk to it, it will outgrow its tiny vial and join the rest of your houseplants.

Intimidate your plants into staying alive when you leave town for a weekend.

Every once in a while I just HAVE to throw a little Nunu's House miniature in here to blow your minds a little. Forgive me.

If they all have four leaves, are they really lucky? Buy a lottery ticket!

I'm good at leaving open cans sitting around anyway, now they'll grow pretties for me!

There's something really soothing about having a new spherical friend who only requires a little misting now and again.

Itty Bitty fimo plants in teeny tiny terra cotta pots are easy to love and unfortunately easy to lose.

I do not have a green thumb, in fact, it's like the thumb of death. This is one plant I could maybe, possibly keep looking fresh.
