Check out my new house plant. It's healthy and thriving because I'm giving it the perfect amount of water and sunlight.

I made it from the cardboard kit, Port-a-Plant, sent over from Chronicle Books. It contains punch-out parts for three different paper succulents. The leaves can be a bit challenging to slip into their slots, so I think a child might have trouble with this. But a grown-up will conquer the cacti. Fun, right?
Below is the photo from the cover of the kit, which is available here.

Hey! Cardboard. That makes you have a green thumb. Hahahaha! Geddit? Green? Cardboard? Shoot me now.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I pinned this. I want to buy it.
Oy. :)
ReplyDeleteCompletely adorable? I want one for my cubicle...and my car...and coffee table.
ReplyDeleteI really need this. I have a dead plant garden that I keep in back. It consists of pots with dirts and sad dead twigs struggling to stay upright. Thanks for the post!

So cute! I wonder if my cats would leave THESE plants alone.
ReplyDeleteThat is my kind of plant... I've killed three so far... so maybe that's what I need to try. =]
ReplyDeleteGreat post - that's the kind of plant I can wrap my brain around!!
ReplyDeleteHaha this is so cute! Cardboard plants are pretty much the only thing I can keep alive too. Oh, and cacti. xoxo

Your paper designs are awesome!!
ReplyDeleteIf i were you I wouldn't be so sure. I had cardboard cacti, and i accidentely spilled water all over them and they looked so pathetic after that, I had to throw them away:)
ReplyDeleteThis ne looks great, I really like it, maybe I'll try :)
Such a pretty idea!!
ReplyDeleteCute idea! It would be a nice gift to take to a crafty friend who's under the weather. Both the making-of and the finished product would cheer them up.
ReplyDeleteGreat design! You've watered them perfectly. Very cute. Keep up the good work. :)
ReplyDeleteThe other day I was tempted to vary the amount of water I'm giving them, but decided to stick with what's working.
