succulent lover

John is very proud of his framed succulent box, so I wanted to share his handiwork.  We found the idea in a magazine a month or so ago.  That same weekend we went searching for succulents to buy so John could start his project, and alas... no one was selling succulents that early in the season.  It ruined John's entire weekend...

So last weekend we found some succulents for sale, and John's finally happy again.  The idea here is for the succulents to take root in the soil/wire mesh that's build into the frame.  Then, you can hang it on the wall like a picture.  Pretty cool.  This is just a little one - about 8"x6".  Ultimately, we'd like to build some bigger ones for the porch and other spots around the outside of the house.  John would be happy to share the directions if any of you are inspired.
