Pretty in Pink – Layer
some bright pink rocks on top of your succulent’s soil and see what happens!
We’re loving the way the pink mixes with the soft green, it’s such a great
color combination. Not a fan of pink? Try using a different color rock like
purple or blue.

Lovely Letters – We
adore this fun project. Monogrammed planters are such a clever idea! And once

easy. They’re a great way to add a personal touch to your space!

Stool It – Ok, so
this stool can technically be used for anything, but we really like the idea of
setting your succulents on top of it. The fun neon accents work well with the
lush greens of the plants. It doesn’t take up too much room, and can add a nice
pop of color to your space.
Not everyone has the room or time for a garden, so we hope
these succulent ideas help bring a little more green your way regardless of
your outdoor space. Make sure to share your succulent snaps with @HomeShows on
