So, as you know, I love flowers and plants. I find that putting flowers and plants around me that I enjoy really makes me happy. Anthony and I were at the Home Depot yesterday and I found the cutest little plant…A “Pincushion Plant.” It’s simply adorable! It is tiny (no bigger than a fist) and the mounded little plant is covered in teensie little orange berries that resemble tiny ripening tomatoes. The plant makes me think of a fun tree out of a story book. See… 🙂
The berries are not poisonous, but are not edible, and according to the label, it is supposed to be kept in a shallow dish with water provided at all times. I did some research on the web though, and it sounds as though many people have trouble growing these little plants. I’m hoping I don’t have the same fate, because it’s just rediculously adorable and totally makes me smile every time I look at it! Does anyone know anything or have experiences with the pincushion? I’d love to hear more!
Also, I recently added my first anklet to my Etsy store. Summer is just upon us, so I want to start adding some summery items and anklets are one that I love for the summer. This one is made with soothing, yet fun colored beads in a variety of materials. There are pearls, czech fire-polished faceted glass, clear glass rondelles with foiled centers and others, with sterling silver findings and a spring lock closure to compliment. Check out my first anklet! You can click here to buy it! Happy Summer!
