Driftwood Succulent Centerpiece

Earlier this year, we found ourselves in the plant section of home improvement stores more and more often. We’ve since brought home bromeliads, cacti and succulents. There’s ivy in the office and my cousin even sent me some Japanese Marimo moss balls because of my wild plant fascination! Now, forget it – you can’t leave me anywhere near sections of stores with succulents and cacti. They’re like Pokemon for me. I’ve got to collect them all!
I’ve collected quite a bit of driftwood off the beach. I had a great piece stored in our attic with a natural opening in the center of it, perfect to hold small plants! So I turned this particular piece of driftwood into a natural planter to hold succulents.
DRIFTWOOD SUCCULENTS
The natural beauty of driftwood is not only a great keepsake from the shore, but makes a wonderful alternative to store bought plant containers. Use driftwood to easily display air plants as well. No soil is needed, but the reindeer moss adds a plush touch to the display. Get creative and enjoy your new and unique houseplants!

Jacqueline Elaine on May 15, 2015@Jessica Holoka love the driftwood candle holder and the torched looked rocked. I may have to try my hand at making one of these!

Jacqueline Elaine on May 16, 2015@Jessica Holoka I would have someone do it for me. I would most certainly burn the crap out of myself! I'm always burning the crap out of myself. I should have scars, however, it must be just enough to equal a chemical peel. Anyway.... have you used any driftwood for shelving? I want to figure out a way to do this.

Jessica Holoka on May 17, 2015@Jacqueline Elaine Ha! I'm surprised I didn't burn myself with this because I'm always burning myself as well! Just using a flat iron is dangerous for me! I haven't used driftwood to build shelving yet, but shelving and furniture is definitely on my list!
