I’m a little obsessed with succulents. Even though i’m pretty sure they are super easy to keep alive, I have a bad track record with killing the cute little things. I bought a few of them at the grocery store the other day and didn’t know what I should plant them in until I found this awesome cement planter at Target! It’s the perfect size for the mantel above my fireplace, but I thought I could spice it up a little bit, and this is what I came up with! Here’s hoping I can keep this one alive! 🙂

what you will need:

• succulent of your choice
• any cement/ceramic planter you want (I got mine from Target for $7)
• nail polish color of your choice (mine is american apparel-summer peach)
• paint pen (sharpie metallic gold)
• washi tape

*you can use paint pen/nail polish for both colors if you want
