Miniature Landscape

Flickr user danielleosflaq posted this tiny scene with the following:

"today, I'm sharing with you something very beautiful my friend John made.To make this little garden, he used real plants such as moss from the side of our building, echeveria (a type of succulent), hens&chicks, weeping rosemary, creeping thyme, a bonsai tree, a small mundo grass, kingsville boxwood, several more plants I cannot remember the names right now, black fine sand, rocks and little bamboo sticks. I think it is quite impressive....dont you???"

Tiny things are so darn cute.

I couldn't help saying "oohhmygooodness!!!" out loud when I first saw this.

wearable garden

Check out Dutch artist Dorothea Dähnick's unique line of garden-inspired jewelry. I probably wouldn't be able to pull this look off, but a beautiful concept none-the-less.

 "Seemingly freshly picked from nature, “Evergreen” jewelry (“Grünzeugschmuck”) are festive jewelry pieces that can be worn the whole year through. It is “wearable nature” made from natural materials."
