My current obsession: Air plants!

I am so excited to tell you about the cutest, easiest, tiniest house plant that anyone with a black thumb can take care of…I bring you…The air plant! Tillandsia is the proper name (I had to Google that) and they require nothing but a little misting every now and then and light! You don’t even have to plant them IN anything!

The possibilities are endless. You can display them in cups, birdcages, glass pendants, antique bowls. You can plant them in sand, shells, rocks, seaglass or nothing at all. You don’t have to plant them! You can plop them right down on a bookshelf if you’re feelin crazy! I love the way they bring a little bit of spring and charm into my house during the blah part of winter. I ordered mine on Etsy, because I couldn’t find them around here. If you know of a good place to pick some up, I have a lot of cute Pinterest inspired ideas for more!
