hello hitched - plant piles

i am finally posting my photos from hitched at the ace hotel in palm springs. its about time! i posted more on my other blog, squirrel hobbies. but here are my favorite plant moments - naturally i reserve the plant love for the terri planty blog lands!
speaking of plants, britt of tending to it is a true master. the lady created an amazing table display of a dripping succulent cluster! so gorgeous. i am so inspired. she also collaborated with jamie of desert fete and created a sweet diorama of a desert scene, mini plants included!
there were lots of gorgeous displays of old vintage bottles, terrariums and air plants hanging out on piles of old books and such. in the "grooms lounge" casually displayed succulents hung out with snazzy leather shoes.
all in all the event was full of sweet details.

i came across this photo in my inspiration file. i have no clue where i found it. so if you know - let me know! and thank you ahead of time!
anyhow it reminded me of my palette wall i created for the renegade craft fair (emptier version). however i like how theirs is fully loaded with plants, creates an excellent vertical garden. i am totally going to build up the one i made for the fair in the studio patio and have plants live in it full time. load it up! come june or july, whenever the next fair is due, i will have plants installed and growing. or maybe this calls for more of a mess? who knows. still a cute idea.

friend pride

i am beaming with pride this morning. my lovely and super talented friend wendy of dear hancock was featured on todays design*sponge sneak peeks! see it here!
her home is gorgeous! bright and airy and full of busy creative energy. i especially love her studio set up in her dining room. who says the dining room must always serve as an eating space! instead they whip up beautiful paintings!
also if you take a close look, a terri planty lives in her home...:) just sayin'!

garden meow

i am a little obsessed with my cats. alright maybe a lot. whatever.
with that being said here are some darling shots of my mr. looey sporting his outdoor kitty harness. he used to get to run around free but he went a little too far into the hood and my hood ain't the safest town for 4 paws. so this was our compromise. and i must say he looks handsome. and happy.
more terrarium photos to come, but i am SICK. yup. super cold got the best of me so i am in the bed and a little bit in the garden too (gotta get some fresh air). point being until i have got to get better so that i can terri planty it up, cuz i have got some sweet ideas to showcase. until then, sweet dreams.

p.s. arugula is growing wild all over my yard! it had grown high and low and looey thinks it is coolest hiding spot imaginable. you know what they call argula - the italian weed. its true! at least you can pull it and then take a bite!

quote crush

i just read the following quote on a girl's world. i couldn't agree more...


you can't just follow your dreams.
you have to pursue those bitches like an absolute motherfu*ker.

terri planty in the home

i got super excited today when i found this image of one of my terri planty terrariums photographed (quite beautifully might i add) in one of my clients homes. its one thing to see them in my studio or lit up for a photoshoot, but when you see a terrarium in its home - that is the best! so thank you mr. allard. i super appreciate you showing off your home and the ladies in the planty lands!

arfound this image of allen ruppersberg's studio in hollywood, 1968 on stopping off place. i am kinda freaking out by how beautiful this image is. i just got back from my mojave desert day trip with my dad and hit the gold mine of cool rocks and wood roots. more on that later. but point being that i intend to spread the goods out like so and just admire them for what they are.
