Suddenly Seduced by Succulents



Hi everyone!  Hope y'all are having a great Easter Sunday!!

First off ~ sorry for the silly alliteration.  Sounds like someone
has had too much sugar and now needs a nap ;-)  That would
be me.  

Yesterday I was in Round Top, Texas.   Antique Week in
Round Top has become my Mecca.  I have lots of pics to
share with y'all this coming week, however, I wanted to
share my current obsession with y'all.

Succulents!

I am loving them!!!

I saw this succulent wreath and knew ~ just knew instantly
that I needed one.  Of course now after reading about how to
make one I am starting to think that I should have purchased 
this one, but oh well.  Hindsight is 20/20 as they say:-)
But it certainly does look charming hanging on this rustic door.



My Mom loved succulents.  She was always growing them in little
containers out in her garden.  Now I want to grow them too.
I am loving this idea ~ succulents in teacups.  I know, I am a little
late to the party, but better late than never.  



Now I know what to do with all those wine corks I saved.




Succulents in tea tins.



Or in a flower frog.  The possibilities are endless.  
I am off to search the house for cute containers.  I have been
charmed for sure.  

Bentley and I will be back this week with pics from Round Top and
let you see what came home with us.

Big Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

  1. I've become somewhat obsessed with them lately, too! Funny, though, growing up I never liked them. Only liked plants that flowered (although I know a few cacti bloom). My son got me started on it, and I just bought a few small cute ones for my kids just the other day. We planted them in clay pots but now you've got me thinking.......
