NQF: A silver plated creamer serves up some succulent plants

Last week's succulent+silver was a large soup tureen, this week's post is on the other end of the tableware size spectrum.  Check out the lovely detail on the handle of this silver plate creamer from the thrift store.


Small planters can still be lush. I love the way the green and white burro's tail plant (a.k.a. donkey tail) wraps around the silvery pink echevaria cultivar and then drapes over the end of the creamer.


Small planters like this can dry out faster than larger deeper pots.  
The succulents don't seem to mind, even a year later.

Happy gardening, thrifting, and freestyling!
