Succulents in Everyday Containers
add beauty to you living space using household containers.
Prep
What you'll need: soil, succulent plants, rocks or pebbles, containers of any size.
Prep Containers
Add rocks or pebbles, this will help with water draining. If your container doesn't have holes on the bottom and you can't drill or add holes rocks or a thin layer will keep water from over soaking the soil. This also means you don't need to water as often.
Soil!
Place a bit of soil over the rocks, making space for the plant.
Plant Your Succulent
Some succulents can be separated, I found that one of my plants wouldn't fit so I separated the little plants and put only a few in my smaller containers. After placing the plants in the containers, add soil to cover the top while gently packing the soil down.
Fancy!
Add more rocks or pebbles to the top. You can even add shiny marbles or stones, even a few favorite characters if it's for a kid's room.
Spice Up Your Space
These plants are hardy and can even endure colder temps, aside from frost, but keep then in a sunny place. The succulents here are all safe to touch if you're worried about kids or pets. Enjoy!
