It’s early on a Saturday morning. My mind is still fresh from a good night’s sleep, but as I slowly begin to wake, I’m quickly reminded of all the things to do. It has been a busy week around here as I’m heading to Atlanta in a few short days and I still have some things to do before I leave.
I have been struggling with finding a balance lately and have to make a conscious effort to step away from my tasks and do the things that matter most to me – spending time with my family. So yesterday we took a little day trip to the cottage where Brody swam in the lake, the kids splashed in the pool and my laptop remained closed here at home. Today we will gather at my parent’s house to celebrate my little sister’s birthday and my laptop will once again remain closed.
Before the weekend gets on its way, I wanted to drop by and share this adorable craft I made last week that was inspired by the brand new book written by my dear friend Stacy – Natural Accents
I love using natural elements in my decor as they are not only easy to find, but also add interest to your space. They can be changed from season to season and as we are fortunate enough to live near water, driftwood is easy to find. For this particular project, you can use any old piece of weathered wood or branch.
I will be sharing the easy steps to making your own driftwood succulent planter later on this week.
I also wanted to make these sweet driftwood place cards to coordinate. As they are being used on a table, I decided to use faux air plants and succulents from my friends at FloraCrafts. They have the most beautiful assortment of succulents and air plants. Don’t they look real?
Find interesting pieces of driftwood or old weathered wood.
Choose your faux succulents or air plants.
Remove the pick.
Hot glue to your piece of driftwood and add some moss for a little more interest.
Optional: If you want to hang them – hot glue an old soda tab onto the back or use a a small piece of Command Strips
I decided to use them on my gallery wall from last week.
Fun and easy, right?
If you love this little project, you’re going to love my friend’s book
Thank you so much for stopping by and reading along today.
much love,
LOVE these, lucy! they are so naturally pretty!
You are so amazingly talented. I love these little driftwood place cards. I’m a outdoor girl and love nature themed craft projects that bring that peacful feeling indoors.
Your photography always blows me away! Thank you for sharing my book. Now I want to cover my walls in driftwood planters 🙂

To tell you the truth, up until last week I’d never baked with puff pastry before. I usually do as much of my baking as possible from scratch, but the idea of making homemade puff pastry is fairly intimidating – I’ve seen them do it on the Great British Baking Show and someone always makes a giant mess of it. So I figured I might as well give the frozen kind a try, and it worked like a dream.

Hi,
This is my favorite post of the series! I’m glad someone else sees the benefit in having a light over the shower instead of just relying on the vanity lights – you need to see what’s going on in there!Atlanta Galleria Hotels Near Cobb Galleria
