I love adding live plants to my home. Love the color and decoration that they bring and also love that they are good for you in purifying the air.
So when I saw these succulents on clearance at Wal-mart, I snatched them up. Succulents are very popular right now and I have been wanting to add some to my house.
I chose this milkglass dish that was one of my yard sale finds (picked up for $1 or less).
Added some small rocks for drainage in the bottom, some soil. and the 3 plants. 3 minute project!
Mi-summer always leaves me longing for the beach, so I added some shells and starfish with my little succulent garden and a white lantern to a wicker tray I have on my coffee table.
I love the succulents matched together with the shells โ they just work perfectly together.
Cute little guys! Hoping I can keep them alive and growing!
Loving this little arrangement. And I canโt wait to add more beach inspired dรฉcor and colors to my house.
Do you have succulents in your home? Or do you decorate with items or colors inspired by the beach?
Got any tips for growing succulents successfully?

I too have decorated my bathroom with a beach theme. Love the colors and shells. I not really successful with plants of any kind. I do have a holiday cactus that I inherited from my mother in law. It has been in the family over 100 years! Still have it alive after 3 years…but it’s never bloomed. Let me know what I’m doing wrong!

Move it to a room where it gets more sun. Doesn’t have to be direct, but they like the light! ๐

The milk glass looks great with the succulent! Anyone growing succulents should bear in mind that they need soil that drains well, such as potting soil mixed with sand. ๐

I love this! But I am like the black widow of succulents. I am a serial house plant killer. Isn’t that sad?! Perhaps I’ll try again. Gonna keep my eyes peeled for succulents on clearance!
