About 14 months ago, I acquired my first air plant. I like them because they are resilient. For someone like me, who has had many a plant become compost (wah!), they are perfect. Since then, I've amassed a collection at my desk that keeps me smiling throughout the day. It's the the little things, right?
When I came across Petit Beast created by LA-based designer, Cathy Van Hoang, I immediately fawned over the clever notion of making the air plants look like jellyfish. I admired the novelty of the plants. Their compact nature and unique silhouette were perfect for this concept. While I don't necessarily need any more plants, I'm pretty darn close to purchasing one or two (or three) from her Etsy shop.
