Have to share how huge this jade plant has grown!! Have to share how huge this jade plant has grown!! Swipe right to see when it came home as a baby from Trader Joe’s. It’s also had its share of babies!
Why hello! So excited that orchids like the light Why hello! So excited that orchids like the light in here. Been a while since I had a happy orchid…they didn’t agree with my choice to tint the windows in the TinCan. Don’t you just love an orchid? They appear so delicate but in fact they are quite hardy plants. Find the right window with the right light, and they thrive without much fuss.
So my fam stopped by the other day and my nephew w So my fam stopped by the other day and my nephew was looking around my place with his analytical mind. After a bit he says…so much yarn! And plants! Then he looks at us and says, “This place is literally like 30% art & pictures, 30% yarn, and 30% plants!” I laughed so hard I cried. Never have I ever heard a better description of my home! 🤣🤣 Although to be completely honest the math might be more 25% art, 25% yarn, 25% plants, and 25% food. Because I do love me some food too! But seriously his observation skills were spot on! Just had to share.
Good morning from the jungle. 🎍🪴🌿Had to r Good morning from the jungle. 🎍🪴🌿Had to reshuffle plants on the shelves a bit. The jade plant was starting to smashing into the shelf above. Will see how it likes top shelf or it may have to go to the floor. Can’t believe it started as a small thing I picked up at Trader Joe’s. Plus it’s had lots of babies! #alltheplants #howmanyplantsistoomanyplants
Say hello to my not so little friend. Monsterra A Say hello to my not so little friend.  Monsterra Adansonii. This one came from an original plant that has since had many children, but it must love the light where it sits. The leaves on this one are getting huge. #monsterraadansonii
It’s a shelfie…and can’t believe how big the It’s a shelfie…and can’t believe how big these plants have grown! The one on the right was about to touch the ceiling when on the other shelf. Who knew when you don’t kill them they keep getting bigger? And they make lots of babies! The other on the left has grown like crazy too. 🥰@alenascrafting #basketsmayormaynotbefullofyarn
Oops! I did a thing. Packages delivered are such f Oops! I did a thing. Packages delivered are such fun. Mostly they are they just boxes of tp and necessities from Amazon but sometimes they come full of fun. Btw this is not all from from one package…don’t judge! It’s yarn…and inspiration. I couldn’t help myself! #byhandserial #knitpicksyarn
