Have I made it clear enough that I’m done with winter?
Because I’ve had enough!
My hands are cracked and bleeding. My legs are looking mighty reptilian and I can faintly hear my flats crying from the back of my closet. Not cool, Mother Nature. Not cool.
I’ve been trying to force spring to hurry its lazy bones up by wearing bright springy colors whenever I remember. But that doesn’t seem to be enough. I think we’re going to have to move to phase two here, people.
A couple of my favorite bloggers have done posts recently that featured some pretty fabulous greenery (Hey Gloria! Hollerrrr Amanda!)–or at least some super cool containers for it. It totally got me thinking about forcing spring into my house with plants.
My problem? I have pretty much the blackest thumb ever. If it can’t be killed, I will kill it. Luckily for me, hearty succulents are all the rage right now and Etsy is absolutely bursting with adorably quirky little vessels to hold them in.

I don’t know about you, but I’m in love. I kind of want all of them.
Are you any good with plants?
Man, I am so ready for spring too. I busted out my flats today and was FREEZING by the end of the day as temps dropped like 20 degrees. I’m with you on the black thumb but these planters are so tempting!
Very cool finds. I can’t grow things either. That’s why I was so down with that moss garden!
LOVE the elephant! I would have to disagree with you… I have the blackest thumb ever. Plants have been known to commit suicide just because I walked by. ;-P
Lol! We should have a black thumb off: an epic battle to see which set of hands proves deadliest to plants. I’m betting on this girl. 😉
