What’s inspiring me today? These adorable succulent teapots! I don’t take credit for any of these creations beyond noticing them at White River Nursery and snapping pictures. But noticing is the first step to all the fabulous future steps.
Don’t they look happy?
Dancing a jig happy!
I’m a succulent teapot, short and stout. ♬
Here is my handle, here is my spout.?
When I get all steamed up, hear me shout, ♪♪
“Tip me over and pour me out!” ?
Brightly colored teapots filled with fleshy succulents in contrasting shades of green—each is a tiny, explosive, quirky world unto itself.
Are you thinking what I’m thinking?
Got any old teapots?
Friends, if you live in Northwest Arkansas, White River Nursery is my favorite place for Ozark native plants. The employees are knowledgeable and passionate. And White River provides a ten percent discount to member of the Botanical Gardens of the Ozarks. Ten percent off is much appreciated because every time we leave, the back of my vehicle looks like this=>>
No, this isn’t a sponsored ad. Just what’s inspiring me today.

What a great recycle. Wishing now I had kept my old teapots. Definitely won’t be getting rid of any in the future.

I love these succulent teapots. What a great idea! I just happen to have a collection of teapots and some succulents that could be reported. Thanks for passing on the charm. I remember singing and acting out that little song from first first grade.

Thanks Dorothy! I think they would be cute with African violets in them too. And I know you have the perfect spot for African violets…
