Succulent and Cactus Decorating Ideas

The popularity of succulents are at an all time high. They are easy to care for (Once you figure it out!), and whether they are real or faux, these succulent and cactus decorating ideas are sure to add fun into your decor.

Personally, sometimes I have found dealing with the faux ones are a little easier for me than the live ones. It’s taken me a really long time to learn how not to over water them. I’ve recently been learning how to propagate succulents, and hope I can master it! While it is fun to see all of the little babies take root and start new plants, but it’s a challenge! Luckily,  the faux ones look just as good as the real ones do!

  1. I love the windowsill decoration. It looks more bright and colourful during daylight and takes up only some space. It is space efficient too 🙂
