Indoor Succulent Plant Hanging Display Idea

Succulent Plants? Hang ‘Em

Hey Guys! I really had fun with this project. Didn't take a lot of thinking on my part or much planning. The succulent / flower display I made using a wood pool ball rack is perfection....just my opinion.....and it took less than 30 minutes to put together.

At one time I didn’t care for succulents at all. Can you believe that. I think the succulent revival that started a couple of years ago got to me. I like the artificial plants the best because I can even kill succulents. True. The wood pool ball rack worked great as an indoor succulent plant hanging display. Always thinking outside of the box. Today is Thrift Store Décor Day so there's a lot going on. Let's get to it.....

What do you think of the wood rack to display plants? How about that color combination. Pink and green compliment each other perfectly.

I hung the succulent display in the bedroom window. I used twine to hang it from the curtain rod.

The wood pool ball rack has been hanging on the wall in the workshop almost as long as the workshop has been up. Don't remember where or when I got it. I just knew it would be the perfect project piece one day. Today's the day.

First thing I did was wipe it down with Howard's Feed n Wax. I love that stuff.

The idea for the succulent plant hanger came from a "wreath" I spotted in Michaels. There was a small bouquet of flowers wired to a metal ring......that was it. Simple. In fact I bought one of the silver metal rings to make a similar wreath. I also bought the flower stem with the pink flowers at Michaels. The succulent clips came from the Dollar Tree. Gotta love $1 items. The rose on the left is from my flower stash. I wasn't sure which pieces I would use in my project.

I started by removing the clips from the succulents. I thought they were just hot glued to the top of the clips but I discovered the stems were sunk into a whole in the clip then glued down.

I left the clips on a few of the succulents and adhered them to the ball rack using hot glue.

I placed three succulents to start with and filled in from there. I just wing it when placing greenery and flowers in a display. Never had any formal training. Sometimes I look back on past projects and wonder what I was thinking. Anyone else do that?

I used hot glue to adhere all of the greenery. As usual my display is asymmetrical.

My plan was to have the angle with the rounded wood or what is called the apex of the rack be the top part of the wreath. When I started putting it all together I decided it would be a nice counter to my asymmetrical display.

I tied yarn to the top of the rack to make the indoor succulent hanging display. Cute as pie.

If you prefer just remove the twine and hang the display on the wall......like I did here.
