I’m kind of obsessed with decorative succulents…
(ceramic pig planter)
From my experience as long as you get a container that has surrounding glass the collected moisture keeps them alive. I give mine a bit of water now & then but honestly they’re hard as heck to kill.
I bought my plants from Lowe’s & a nursery down the road. The containers are all random from over the years but I’ve found Michael’s has a really nice selection of glass.
Here’s a great round-up I found from Pinterest on 10 easy terrariums. (including the lightbulb one below)

I keep seeing succulents used in bridal bouquets and they’re awesome. I like that they’re hard to kill — maybe I won’t have to have fake plants after all.
succulents are my main flower in my wedding this summer!
OHMYGOSH, I LOVE the idea of succulents in a wedding! How chic!!!
Have you ever checked out the blog Young House Love? They love succulents as well as ceramic animals like I see in your pics. Check them out!
Yes, I haven’t read it in awhile but I do remember loving it…thanks for reminding me!
I want a piggy planter!
Can I ask where you got your owl lamp? My auntie loves owls. And I’ve been searching for a great birthday present for her. Between, I couldn’t keep a plant alive. No matter what. Then I bought some succulents. I’ve had them for years. So glad I found them.
Yes! It’s from West Elm, I bought it a few years ago but I think it’s a product they carry regularly
