Frosty Gifts

The holiday party season is upon us! Why not leave the re-gift bottle of wine at home, and show up with an original arrangement you made yourself? After all, there's nothing like a beautiful handmade gift from the heart.
 
You can get creative with the container - in the past I have used tarnished old silver dishes, a glass vase filled with white sand, large shells, even just a small container with one unique succulent in it gets a great response.  I made this one using a verity of "frosty-looking" succulents to give it that winter feel. Also, I knew these were a great selection of plants that my friend James could later add to his existing Potted Garden.  
 
I purchased all of these supplies at Flora Grubb. They have an awesome variety of plants and pots to choose from.
