Ahhh-xygen

Ryan and I both love the hardware store.  One section we've been spending a lot of time in is the garden center.  Seriously, we can't stop thinking about plants!

Meet Susie, the succulent.
I've recently learned that a home should have 10-15 plants in order to improve indoor air quality, which is far more polluted than outdoor air. YIKES!  I cringe at the thought of having had only one indoor plant at the loft and the occasional vase of flowers.

Falling deeply in love with terrariums.  Until I can build the one of my dreams I potted the cutest little succulent that cost less than $3 at Home Depot.  Vase and rocks $1 each from the dollar store.

So far we only have five plants, but at the rate we're going we'll probably have a jungle by next month haha.  Not only do plants remove toxins, it's the easiest way to add beauty to a room and is good for the soul.  Taking care of them gives you a rush of well-being.. a sense of joy and healing.

Deep breath in... ahhh-xygen.

K bye!
