SENIOR LADY: SUCCULENT DISPLAY PROJECT!

Image
  I have been collecting succulents for many years. I believed the hype that said they were easy to grow. I have purchased several online and from plant nurseries.  I have bought succulent cuttings sold in groups of ten. Only five of them survived. I'll admit I have been guilty of over watering and under watering succulents. Finally came up with my failsafe method of keeping them alive.

I thought toilet paper would  be   too fragile and tear easily when handled. I did  watch the entire video. I was impressed and decided to try this craft.  I forgot to save the video and tried to do my  own version for creating this angel. It looked fine with the purple accessories.  However, I needed   exact  measurements if I wanted to feature  this craft  on my blog. After reviewing several videos, I found  the right video tutorial.  I saved the angel craft this time. I used this video for inspirat...
