Panic Moon Jan 10, 2020Hi.. I have been doing this for years with my tillandsia!! I do have a problem with troll skin staining! Some brands can be especially difficult when removing stains. Do you have any advice on how to clean really set-in stains? Thanks!

Lyn5 days agoThank you! I have a troll doll I was trying to do this with, but it wasn’t working. I’d put holes on his feet for drainage. Going to try pea gravel.

Have a question about this project?
You did not mention adding any soil. You do need something besides gravels don't you?
Not sure how I missed the dirt…I did add a little dirt on top of the pea gravel and then planted the succulent. Thanks for catching that! I updated the post :-)
Did you drill small holes in their feet for drainage?
No drain holes I put pea gravel in before the dirt for drainage

Use air plants, no soil needed!
It's in step four.
What kind of succulents do you use, will any do? Thanks
Any should work, I usually pick smaller varieties so as they grow they don’t become to top heavy.
