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.
So cute! Love all the great things that come from Chronicle Books.
ReplyDeleteHa! Not quite what I just bought at the greenhouse, but cute! :)

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!!

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.
