I absolutely loved this arrangement when I bought it.
I was able to make it last for about 6 months before it died. I may have mentioned that I don’t have great luck with living things (unless they are kids). But, I still love the container, and so I arranged something I could keep alive.
I found these cute little artichokes, and I had to have them . . . after all, they aren’t living.
I added little white pots with sand and filled in the rest of the container with some dyed moss. It may not be as wonderful as my succulents were, but I know they will live as long as I want them, too. And, I kind of like it . . . simple and maybe a little bit funky.
I like the artichokes even better! Your home looks beautiful. Great job with the rooms. I'm trying to invite myself over so I can get a home tour and enjoy the whole picture together. I'm sure I can get some great ideas for my home.

Love the artichokes! I have been helping some people with home decorating around here and I love that idea! GREAT! Now, you need to get daffodil or paperwhites that are already grown and plant them in there for April. SO FUN. You will have fun changing that up all the time!

Ooh I like them! Where did you find the artichokes?

The artichokes were found at Ben Franklin here in Sandpoint, but I bet you could find something like that at any craft store, like, Michaels.
