⏰•••#MAKMinute•••⏰ #Butdidyouknow you can easily decorate your backyard with hanging planters? Our customer previously used these hanging planters for succulents that would quickly die, so she asked us to create something for her using artificial succulents so it would last all summer! What a treat it was using our imagination to produce these 4 pieces, using earthy greens, reds, yellows with a hint of blue!

To end off the month of June, we wanted to discuss EVERLASTING ROSES, also known as Eternity or Forever Roses. They were created by Venus Et Fleur after an unfortunate Valentine’s Day incident.

The Everlasting Roses are REAL roses, that come from Ecuador. they are dehydrated and injected with a wax-based solution which stunts their growth.

They last about a year, as long as these roses are kept out of direct sun.
