Seashell Collection Addiction

I got this amazing large porcelain seashell dish at an estate sale. I instantly knew it would be the new home to my seashells I have collected form travels around the world..and of course an air plant.

Desktop Air Plant Gardens

Air plants are so easy to care for and unique. I bought a whole bunch just knowing I love them. Then the idea popped into my head! I made this desktop garden from a upcycled picture frame I got at an estate sale. I hand painted/distressed a seashell and placed a beautiful little tillandsia inside. It can be hung on the wall or displayed desktop. more on my etsy site

Home: Abalone Shell Hangings

Experimentation: Arrival of the Air plants!

Meet my newest obsession, tillandsia or more commonly known as, air plants! Air plants and Venus Fly Traps are two of the coolest plants around. I have come to accept from years of attempts I cannot keep a Venus Fly Trap alive. So I was excited when I read, "Air plants are truly are a perfect gift for plant lovers and for people who can't grow anything." That's me! So, I went and ordered a large box of air plants. And have been experimenting with ways to display these curious little plants.
