    So cute Laura. You never fail to impress me. Didn't know succulents were that tough. If this is any indication of what's coming next, I can't wait to see this natural tree. You are so clever. Love it. And t.y.🐦💙

    Love this idea. I think this would be a nice gift for someone. I would make the ornament as the gift with a little pot and soil to repot it later.

    Beautiful ornaments. I can’t wait for the naturals themed tree.

    Hi Laura! Wonderful succulent arrangements. Air plants in small hanging terrariums could be a great addition to the natural themed Christmas tree.

    It’s crazy that you’re using hot glue on them and I can’t keep them alive. 🤣🤷🏽‍♀️ The kalanchoe looks like a fuzzy rose. Such pretty ornaments! Thanks for sharing.🥰

    I love succulents and you made that happen for me! I was always afraid of them and killed all I had tried to grow until I went back and watched a BUNCH of your succulent videos. You are so relaxed with them and have such a gift to teach and to show us to have no fear!
    Thank you! I love this idea and I love you and your family! My husband enjoys many of your videos, too. But, he doesn't always enjoy helping me with all the projects you've inspired!😲🤣
    Merry Christmas to you and all the Garden Answer Team!!!
    Love and Peace to you during this season and always!!!🌲⛄❤🙂

    You are a genius! These ornaments are gorgeous! In addition to these ornaments, maybe you could hang some of the mini terra-cotta pots (extra small-there are so many sizes to choose from) already planted with succulents.so you wouldn’t have to replant them afterward. Pot up succulents in the mini terra-cotta pots, hot glue twine to the pot as a hangar or wrap some wire under the lip of the pot and shape it into a hangar.

    I use a shot glass to water and I never give them too much water that way.I direct water to the plants in my fairy gardens that are in glass bowls with the shot glass too.I only have to water the succulents twice a month here in Connecticut. So many people tell me their succulents die and rot and that's because they are watering once a week or more with their other plants.

    You have space on yours property, if nowhere else, in upper part of barn you was cleaning few days ago, you should make there(or somewhere else) workshop/studio for your projects and filming videos like this. Great channel btw!

    Can not wait to see the tree. I love making my own decorations. This is so exciting. I saw a video this year where someone took hydrangea flower heads and glued a bunch of snow and glitter on them to make frosted snowball looking ornaments. I liked how they turned out. You can also make snowflakes from birch sticks, and then frosted and glitter them. Making ornaments is so much fun.

  • @sonjathesloth
    @sonjathesloth 4 роки тому +1

    QUESTION: Do you have a hot glue gun you recommend?? I did succulents on top of pumpkins for a Thanksgiving centerpiece using sphagnum moss and hot glue, just as you have done. They actually turned out great (much to my surprise) and still look good. But I have a really cheap hot glue gun. It was a pain to use and made a MESS. I'm looking to upgrade to a nicer one - perhaps even cordless. Thanks

    • @mariankay6482
      @mariankay6482 4 роки тому +2

      Laura got me started on succulents. Now, I have a whole section of the one room of my house, that has a giant picture window, full of them! I still have a grow light that I supplement their light with. Our windows are double paned and are very, very tinted! I have them placed for the ones who like the filtered direct sun more and to one's that like it kind of spotted throughout the day. I've killed a few in the learning curve but not many and I'm already learning about propagation because many are making babies!
      It's been very enjoyable! I sit at my work table and the time flies by!
      If you decide to jump in, do watch her videos on succulents. She helped me to relax with them and have fun. Just don't over water! Man, that was my downfall, at first. I killed them with kindness! Haha!
      Happy gardening and...
      Merry Christmas!!!🌲⛄❤
