Collectors are
by nature
what I like to call
‘Good Finders’.
In addition,
if I am out and about,
I am going to ‘Find Something’.
And lately, I have found
multiple pieces of vintage Mexican pottery.
And in the spirit of
a little copying from two wonderful blogs,
and
I now have a small succulent
arrangement
in one of my new vintage Mexican pieces of pottery.
I am not a fan of large cactus,
(I grew up on a ranch in South Texas, and I have seen my share),
but the small ones are wonderful.
At Wal Mart I bought a small bag of this.
I first spotted larger succulents, but they were a little
pricey.
Then I turned the corner and found small sizes
ranging in price from $2.50-$4.00.
My next project is to plant a small succulent garden in
one of my silver plate serving pieces.
Visit these amazing blogs.
You will be as inspired as I was.

I love succulents. And I really like the idea of planting some in a silver dish - the colors will look wonderful, I think.
I live in the desert so I do as you and plant small succulents in containers. They look great in silver containers...that's the only thing I plant mine in. The green and silver make a nice combination. Have fun.

i fell in love with succulents a few years ago.
it was because i saw a gorgeous center piece.
it was a jade plant set in a very long and low planter.
it was so architectural!!
it was fabulous

Your succulent garden turned out GREAT!
Yep, great plants......love your container!
That pottery is so cool! What do you suppose the story is about it? I've never seen that pattern before. Does it say on the bottom where it was made??
Great post!

Succulents are so interesting to me. I love your Mexican pottery. Can't wait to see your silver plate arrangement.

Aren't succulents amazingly beautiful? they will look so good when you get the arrangement finished!
I love succulents. I don't have a good track record with them, however. I have noted your potting mix and maybe I'll try again - something for the deck maybe. Love your mexican pottery.
