Create a super cute teacup garden!

Plant a tiny garden with succulents, then let your imagination run wild as you sprinkle in some delightful decorations to bring your own miniature world to life!

October 6, 2023

Supplies

  • Cup and saucer (your local op shop is a good place to look if you don’t have one)

  • Glue suitable for ceramics

  • Succulent potting mix

  • Gravel

  • Succulent cuttings, mini succulents, or air plants (also known as Tillandsias - a member of the bromeliad plant family)

Decorations to create your miniature scene, such as:

  • Pebbles and stones

  • Tiny figurines

  • Seashells

  • Colourful marbles

Or you could make your own with air-dry clay.

Instructions

  • Glue the cup to the saucer (optional, but it helps to prevent accidents!).

  • Add a little gravel to the bottom of the cup, then fill with succulent potting mix.

  • Plant the cuttings and arrange your decorations to create your miniature scene.

  • Water your succulents minimally - just the occasional dribble of water. Since the teacup does not have a drainage hole, it’s important to avoid excessive watering.
