weekend decorating idea... how to decorate with succulents

Lately I have been seeing adorable little arrangements of beautiful succulents all over the city.
All the cutest boutiques have the most lovely little displays full of green!
I am determined to decorate for the holidays with some wild panache,
and succulents are the way to go, especially for the tabletop decor.
I'm crazy about these beautiful botanicals.

I think what is key when decorating with succulents is placing them in unique and unexpected items.
Gorgeous vintage trophies, milk glass jars, apothecary jars, candle holders, etc.
So chic!

I'm loving the succulents in silver. Very pretty. I'm dying to do a big terrarium. I remember my Grandmother had one that I used to just stare and stare at. Thanks for the inspiration.

Your succulents post is fab, Ashlina! I love how they have been presented so wonderfully, too. xo

They are perfect for winter and the use of old silver to display them just adds the perfect touch of glamour

Very nice to see people thinking about succulents! I've loved them for years but people never saw them as I did. Keep it up! They are beautiful and they are so easy to grow and care for they are mother nature's way of saying, "hello"!
