i was inspired to make this succulent planter when i saw this one on pinterest
it from rootedinsucculents on etsy
i immediately loved it but thought i could try a diy to make a similar one
all you need is a cardboard letter,
a cutting knife
succulents
plastic bag
cut one side off the cardboard letter using a sharp blade, i used the letter H as its my partners initial.
next decide on the arrangement you want to plant the succulents.
next decide on the arrangement you want to plant the succulents.
cut the plastic bag to line the bottom, then just add the plants, fill in any gaps with soil and add a little water and your done. it was so easy it took lessthan 10 minutes to make and looks amazing.

I love your succulents. I have so many of them but because it's raining all the time in Uk they rot so easly.
However nice idea.
