Hey plant friends! πŸ‘‹ I've been working on some unique, handcrafted planters that are perfect for adding a special touch to your houseplant collection. Each planter is made for my own specific plants. Attached image is my avocado tree and a few succulents.

Whether you're into hanging planters, tabletop pieces, or statement pots, I've got something that can match any plant lover's style! πŸŒΏπŸ›οΈ Check them out at my Artisans Co-op store

Question: What's your favorite type of planter for showcasing your houseplants? I’d love to hear your ideas! πŸŒ±πŸ‘‡

Nice designs, and nice plants. How come the round one isn't listed?

Thanks, tbh it was for a time on my Etsy shop but it never sold a single one. So I took it down. It was kind of expensive to make due to how parts of the design were.

The distance between the inner and outer wall was too thick, the bottom was solid for about 10mm to add weight but all that added up to was much material.

I think I'm better at design now though and could make one similar that used a lot less material which would cost less.

Fair enough, just curious. Time for round 2!

Yes for sure. My big printer is broken right now and I need to figure out how to fix it before I can make another one that sized.
