Air Plants in Sea Shells

airplants_close_up

I love air plants….

Especially when they are in sweet little shells.  You all know how much I love shells….

I love collecting them at the beach, but we don’t always get beautiful ones here in Scituate.  We often find mussels or clams, not sea urchins or starfish.

I have my air plants in shells sputnik sea urchins, purple sea urchins, snail shells and abalone shells.  I love how the smooth texture of the shell plays against these spiky plants.

The best part for me is I don’t really have a green thumb and these plants are so easy to look after.

They are pretty on a mantel, propped on a book on side table, on your desk or in a bowl!  I love how they bring that easy, breezy feeling to any room.  It is like you’re room is ready for summer!

In addition to my painted furniture, painted oars and driftwood sailboats, I’ll be selling these sweet little air plants in shells at my upcoming Open Studio this Sunday.

Part of me is hoping I don’t sell all of them as I like how they look on my dining table –

If you’re local hope you can stop by!  I hope to share a few more furniture reveals this week!

Those are so cute, love how you put them in the shells, I’d love to have shells like those little round bowls. Haven’t seen those for sale anywhere. It sure does look summery with all those in the awesome wood bowl. Great idea. You are going to have such a great studio day. Sure wish I could be there. I’d want to buy one of everything, especially your little air plants. Wonder where I could find some? I should be cleaning something but oh well guess it’s not all going anywhere. Today I covered me”new to me couch” with a… Read more »

That is a really gorgeous idea and I think it’s something I could manage as well! Thanks for sharing this. Now to find some air plants!

If you have a minute to spare I’d be thrilled if you could share your post at my weekly Say G’day Saturday linky party. It has just started and this would be a fabulous addition!

Best wishes for a great weekend,
