I’m always looking for interesting ways to display a crochet plant hanger, like these air plant pods. Know a golf lover or wood worker that’s hard to find a gift for? Make them a one-of-a-kind golf themed planter! Continue reading
These air plant holders, aka air plant pods, are great for displaying your air plants anywhere you’d like to hang them, like in a window or even on the fridge. I love thinking up new and different ways to display air plants (like this cement planter and air plant holder DIY.
I think they’d be a great gift for mother’s day, so if you’re interested in joining a live crochet-along, see the sign up form at the end of this post! They’re easy to flatten and send along in the mail as a gift (without the air plant, of course)!

It even makes a great gift idea for Christmas. Continue reading
This air plant holder DIY is a solution to a very real problem if you like to grow plants but have limited space.
So how do you display air plants when space is an issue? Air plants don’t need just air, they also need a source of bright indirect sunlight too. That means they have to be within 3 feet of a window at most. But that’s easier said than done in our house. You see, our house sits on a ‘zero lot line’.
