Friday Find: Summer Decorating with Coral Accents

In China, coral is a symbol of longevity. This semi-precious stone is also one of the five sacred stones of the Tibetan Buddhists and symbolizes the energy of life force. No wonder this beautiful natural form in turning up in everyday interiors. Coastal Living even published their favorite home decor items showcasing coral in their March 2010 issue. And although this classic motif is welcome year around, it is perfect for a beach house or summer decorating. Here are my picks for the season…
1. Toothbrush holder by Alessi,
2. Malaya Small Coral/Zinc Lamp at Outer Banks Trading Group
3. Coral Melamine Plate by Bongenre
4. Coral Gables Fabric – Laguna Collection by Thibaut
5. Coral Porcelain Candle at Vivre
6. Red Coral on Cream Hook Pillow at Outer Banks Trading Group
7. Red Coral Sculpture at Vivre
8. Coral Tieback by Marjorie Skouras Design
9. Red Coral Chandelier by Marjorie Skouras Design
10. Printed Coral Rug at Williams Sonoma Home

The Tibetans also believe that that people who wear coral will have success in life… now, off to find my coral necklace! Do you decorate with coral?

Friday Find: Succulent Wreath and DIY Vertical Garden

I have a thing for succulents. Not only are they are not only a low-water easy-care gardening option, they come in a wide range of sizes, colors and textures.


Mixing varieties of succulents can create incredibly beautiful arrangements. Here are some spectacular succulents bowls by Flora Grubb Gardens of San Francisco for a recent event at the SF Ballet.

I also love the square succulent arrangement above from Succulence a life & garden store also in San Francisco.  

This hanging succulent wreath {also from Succulence} really caught my eye. I think it would be fabulous on a front door or garden gate.
Here is an incredible vertical succulent garden that only needs to be sprayed with a little water now and then. It was installed using a Vertical Garden, DIY Panel available at Flora Grubb Gardens. Hmmm… might have to drop by and pick up one of these panels for myself.
Are you thinking of planting some succulents this summer? Here are a few simple step-by-step tips on how to plant succulents in containers.
Happy Friday, Happy Gardening!
