Dollar Store Succulent Globes With Essential Oils
This simple and cheap project will make your home smell and look wonderful!
Supplies Needed:
3 - 5 Dollar Store succulents, varying sizes and colors
1 bag Dollar Store vase filler rocks
2 Dollar Store Hanging Floral Globes
Essential Oils
Glass bowl
Spatula
Fishing Wire or String (for hanging)
Scissors
PREPARATION:
1. Rinse the rocks under warm water for 5 minutes. Lay out to dry.
2. Once rocks are dry, place them in a glass or ceramic bowl, leaving room for stirring.
3. Sprinkle approximately 10 drops of essential oil of your choice ( my favorite - affiliate link) over the rocks and stir well, using silicone spatula. Allow rocks to dry for half an hour.
4. Once rocks are dry, fill the floral globes about 1/3 of the way (approximately 1/2 cup).
5. Add succulents to your liking. Make sure you completely bury the stems in the rocks for a more realistic look.
6. Tie string around the plastic hook at top of globe, leaving 2 feet for adjustments. Hang in your desired location.
I chose to hang mine in a window so the morning sun would heat the oil and make the kitchen smell lovely.
You can see three more projects I created using Dollar Store succulents on the blog at T Moore Home.
