These are some vignettes I did for the Bridal fashion show at The English Dept.
At the top is a large terrarium (vase from West Elm). I started with a layer of small pebbles, then encased each plant in moss and tucked them in. A large echeveria succulent, a miniature violet, and a Rex begonia, and a few cut Green Tiger orchid blossoms all tidied up with moss. Below those pics are some separate plants I did in groupings - they are all in vintage silver footed bowls with moss as well. Amazing they are all still alive and well - some after 2 months and some after 3 weeks!

Gorgeous! So unique and makes me think of my friend who is growing tiny succulents to give as wedding favors for her big day.
Posted by: Monica Yvette | March 07, 2008 at 05:21 PM
i would have never thought to combine succulents with african violets or begonias. it's so beautiful that i want one too. i just have to find the perfect vessel. that's the hard part...

Those photos are gorgeous!
I plan on making one of my own when the weather warms up.
I posted about it too:
