Succulents, Air plants, and Herbs

Well, well, well....looks like I'm not the only one loving succulents this week! Just found this DIY Terrarium posted on The Brick House blog. Lovin' it!

I was googling air plants and came across this awesome picture. It is a piece of art filled with succulents, air plants and other things...the artist is, Tetsunori Kawana.

Just pretty, pretty pictures...

Cement succulent planters... (LOVE IT!)

Probably gotta buy these guys... but there are lots of D.I.Y air plant chandeliers out there in google land.... I'm obsessed with them.

Well how about this cute idea? Succulents are cute in almost anything.

Seraphine De Senlis

I first found out about Seraphine Louis aka "Seraphine De Senlis" through my boyfriend's mom. While Matt was at a bachelor party his mom and I wrote down every movie we wanted to see and "Seraphine" was at the top of the list. I had never heard of this painter but Matt's mom just knew I'd love her. She was SOOO right. We scoured Hastings for this movie and just had no luck, but a few months later I finally saw it. It was such an inspiring story and I highly recommend renting it. Basically, she taught herself how to paint by making her own secret concoctions that are still unknown to this day. She was a housecleaner by day and at night would paint under candlelight. I just love her story and her art. Do yourself a favor and look her work up. In the meantime, I posted a few of her pieces below...enjoy!

Here she is in all her Glory...
