Hanging Succulent Art

Today I am sharing a couple photos of a super easy and fun Hanging Succulent Art project. I originally made this for my front door. First, take  a piece of old board (this one is about 8″ x 16″ and I found it in the garage), and add a wire hanger to the top. Then take a piece of burlap, double it and staple a pocket to the board. Line the pocket with Spanish moss, and add a good amount of potting soil to the middle. Add more moss to the top. Then take your succulent cuttings from your yard  and, with a pencil, make a hole in the soil or in the burlap. Place the root in the hole. If necessary, use landscape pins to secure the cutting. I added a seashell, but you can add whatever you like that might give it a little more interest! Water about once a week in the summer, less in winter. This would be a great inexpensive holiday gift, so start now so the plants have time to root. Have fun!

  1. I love this rustic beachy look.Im going to have to try it sometime. This made me think about doing a small wreath. Have you ever done one? What would you use for the base.? I don’t want to make temporarily, but keep it up all year.
