Our first project is from Cassidy at ‘Succulents and Sunshine‘. Oh my, these are cute! These DIY painted planters are perfect little accents, and the succulents are really easy to grow. While you are there checking out her tutorial, be sure to check out her e-book, “How to Grow Succulents Indoors“. Then you will be an expert too!

 

 

From Brittni Mehlhoff via ‘Curbly‘, these DIY metallic planters took her 5 minutes to make. Cactus and succulent plants always look better when displayed in a  cool pot… Simple, fast, easy!

 

Want to do a project that is a bit more traditional? Learn how to make an indoor succulent dish garden from Manuela at ‘A Cultivated Nest‘. Pretty way to use those dishes that aren’t very practical, but too gorgeous to get rid of!

 

Again from Cassidy at ‘Succulents and Sunshine‘, these miniature succulent bird cages look like so much fun to put together, and can be whimsical or traditional… Ok, and they are just so sweet! Find out just how to make these cactus and succulent projects!.
