wednesday weddings & celebrations: succulent favors

This a is great sustainable favor for guests. By taking a small bubble vase and layering sand and rocks in the bottom with a selection of succulents, you can create a miniature succulent terrarium for each guest. If you chose something like this for your own wedding or celebration- it’s great because it’s something you can do in the months or weeks ahead of your event or if you don’t have the time, you can ask your florist or local nursery to put them together for you. You can find many sized vases like this, sand, rocks etc. at Jamali Garden in the New York flower market along 28th street. The exact address is 149 west 28th street between 6th and 7th avenues. It’s a resource I use constantly for styling photo shoots or for finding inspiration for favors, decor etc.. They have an online store now too, here’s the link: www.jamaligarden.com
