Cactus Phone Strap

By Sandy, on August 6th, 2009

My very sweet friend, Bonita, got me this cactus phone strap as a souvenir when she was visiting France around 6 months ago. This phone strap is adorable, and the idea of carrying a little cactus around is absolutely cool. Moreover, it’s small and lightweight, making it a cute accessory for those who want to hang something different on her phone or bag. So, everything of this phone strap looks perfect, except one thing… Continue reading Cactus Phone Strap

Tabletop Garden – Double the Love v2

By Sandy, on May 26th, 2009

This is the second Tabletop Garden – Double the Love that I have made, and it is now in Randon Art Workshop. While people can buy this tabletop garden in the workshop, to me, it is more for promotional purpose than for sales. Hopefully, the city dwellers, especially the younger generation, can find more fun with the green! Continue reading Tabletop Garden – Double the Love v2

By Sandy, on May 2nd, 2009

To match the name of this tabletop garden – In the Outer Space better, I have taken away the moss and covered the pots and soil with black stones instead.

Which one do you like more?

Tabletop Garden – A Green Cappuccino

By Sandy, on April 30th, 2009

This is my latest tabletop garden – A Green Cappuccino. Ever wonder what those greens are? They are not moss or some type of groundcover plants, but believe it or not, they are dragon fruit seedlings – one of those exotic, bizarre-looking fruit which you can find in Southeast Asia.

Tabletop Garden – Cactus Garden v2

By Sandy, on April 26th, 2009

As I said earlier, I originally planned to cover my tabletop garden – Cactus Garden with a layer of off-white gravels. But since I couldn’t find any on hand, I used some big black stones instead. While the tabletop garden looked pretty cool with the black stones, the picture of the garden covered with small gravels had always been in my mind.

Tabletop Garden – In the Outer Space

By Sandy, on April 16th, 2009

tabletop-cactus-garden-209 While some girls don’t find my tabletop cactus garden – In the Outer Space – absolutely lovable, all the guys, whom I have shown this tabletop cactus garden to, like the garden right at their first sight. Maybe it’s the strong contrasts of colors and shapes in the cactus garden that most guys find very cool about. I am not sure why. But anyways, I love these cacti. They are just soooo lovely 🙂

Tabletop Garden – Cactus Garden

By Sandy, on April 14th, 2009

Cactus makes very good tabletop gardens. There are many species of cacti, some with outrageous colors, some with small yet flashy flowers, and some with weird shapes and sizes. We can use cactus to make a very big tabletop garden crammed with various types of cacti, or we can use some baby cacti to make a petit tabletop garden as small as a coffee cup.

Ideas of cactus garden are limitless. Just be creative and give it a try. I guarantee that you will find a lot of fun in making tabletop gardens with cactus too!
