A week or so ago, a friend of mine was at Market Street and texted me a picture of the cutest succulent in a mason jar being sold in the floral department. I planned right away to copy the idea but then I saw them in person and they were even cuter than I first thought! I was at the store buying succulents the next day!
Start with a mason jar. This would be adorable with any type of jar: short or tall, squat or thin.
Fill the mason jar with potting soil …
… and plant a succulent so that it sticks out the top. {Note: add the metal rim of the mason jar lid before you plant the succulent … it adds a touch of rustic which is super cute}.
Tie a strip of burlap or other ribbon around the top of the mason jar …
… and you have a sweet teacher appreciation gift, a warm hostess gift, or a fun way to decorate a table for a dinner party {wouldn’t these make cute place cards?}.

This is lovely. I have never heard of succulents before. They are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I saw this on Pinterest, very cute idea. As you mentioned in the post it would make a great gift!
