Did you know succulents symbolize enduring and timeless love?

That’s a notion I can get behind. Platonic love, Familial love, Romantic love - enduring and timeless love that spans the physical and spiritual realm.

Three planters went out yesterday:
2 to celebrate a life now continued in the spiritual world and
1 to celebrate the day a beautiful spirit was born to her earthly body.

I treasure being part of these life moments. I treasure handcrafting planters to honor those who are near and dear to you.

Consider this your weekly reminder to “shower the people you love with love”

🌸a random text
🌸a quick note on a post-it
🌸a handwritten note in the mail

These are all great ways to make this happen today 🙌🏻💐💗🌸

Love & Hugs,

Can we make #TinyFlowerTuesday a thing? I’d settle for #MiniBouquetMonday but I’m a day late for that ish 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

This is your reminder to get yer’ bootie out of that chair and go grab some fresh flowers to put on your desk.

Don’t have any flowers you can clip? Not A Problem… Mother Nature grew wildflowers specifically for you to enjoy. So go clip some of them! 🌸🌻🌷💐🌸

Here’s to having the courage to hope for miracles and the clarity to witness them unfolding in our lives.

Wishing you so much peace and love.

Happy Thursday, Friend. — I hope you are having

Happy Thursday, Friend.
—
I hope you are having the best freaking day so far!
—
I have quite a number of things in bloom in the cutting gardens around my house, but you know what?!?!
—
Sometimes it’s snipping a few blooms from my roadside ditch that brings me the most joy 🤭
—
Weed or Wildflower?!?!
—
It’s all about perspective. Right?
—
This is a simple bud vase of #RedClover I snipped while weeding a fence line.
—
Have you ever smelled red clover?
—
Gah! It’s heavenly and smells like honeysuckle and jasmine had a baby. #YoureWelcome 💗
—
Friend, you know what I’d love? I’d love if you treated yourself to some free flowers today. Because the best things in life are FREE 💗
—
Bonus points for picking an extra bouquet and giving it to a friend or neighbor. #SparkJoy And #SpreadKindness
—
PS, some wildflowers wilt easily. Pick them early in the morning or just before sunset and put them in water right away to extend vase life.

I’ve been experimenting with wood finishes a lot

I’ve been experimenting with wood finishes a lot lately. Just trying to learn new techniques and share what I love with you.
—
This is one for the ‘LOVE’ column 💗
—
This guy takes a little extra love to bring to life, but I think he’s more than worth it.
—
Each wood planter is hand-distressed, hand-sanded and flame finished. I add a silky smooth coat of Tung Oil while the wood is still too hot to touch. Once the Tung Oil dries, I hand polish it for that final buttery luster.
—
Bless my heart, I think this is one of my new favorite wood finishes 🤭
—
I’m calling this the Bourbon Collection. Each planter will be bold and unique, but all will have a rich tone and texture.
—
I kept the plant options super neutral and balanced the moss accents to get a nice mix of texture and color.

This guy is finally live in the shop (tap the photo to learn more or use the link in my bio @kinderbrand).

This is probably one of my favorite Lola Planters

This is probably one of my favorite Lola Planters to date. It’s that special time of year when succulents are naturally their most colorful thanks to long, sunny days of summer.
—
Where do you stand on the succulent spectrum? Do you prefer lush green hues? Or do you like a fun splash of color here and there?
—
I’m just a crazy plant lady… I love all the plants…
