Happy Friday! Here’s a quick and easy weekend project for you! I found some tiny succulents at a local greenhouse and just had to bring them home! Once home, I began to look around the house for something to plant them in. I finally decided on vintage ironstone teacups – simple, and a bonus – they fit on my kitchen windowsill!
They had several varieties. Here are the three I chose.
Aren’t they super cute!

Your succulents caught my eye over on Hometalk, so I had to stop over and say what a lovely idea this is and I've shared it. Have a wonderful day!

I lack the green thumb and i've killed many plants sadly…I do love succulents and currently have some inside my house in terracotta pots. I love the idea of the tea cups, I have one question though don't they need proper drainage? I have also seen plants in mason jars and ask myself the same question…

I love this idea! I just purchased a wonderful cup from a thrift shop that says "grand hotel". I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it but this is perfect!!! Thank you!~~Angela
