I resisted the urge when I first saw them and then didn't see another one for months. Finally found one...the last one... in Lowes today. I think it would look awesome in a mixed pot with a chlorophytum "Fireflash" or something that's really electric pink.

Thanks! I started making them for my plants because I couldn't find pretty plant hangers anywhere. Now I sell them at the farmer's market and local festivals. Thank You!

Beautiful hangers I love beads! I also have a neon pothos and the color is so bright I love it especially during the winter.

I love the color too. When they said "neon", they really meant it! And it's so easy to root pothos so I can make more mixed baskets. I may put this one in a pot with a purple velvet and leave them in that hanger.

What kind of beading do you do? Beads are as addictive as plants. I started selling the jewelry I make just to support the habit of buying more beads. So much sparkle......

Very nice Neon Pothos that both of you have!

Holly: That beaded hanger is really pretty! You should consider selling a few here on our Classifieds Forum: http://garden.org/forums/view/...

Lin I thought it was just for plants but I probably would like to list a few of them on there. I set up an Etsy store but never opened it. Thank You! Thank You!

Holly,

I think anything plant/gardening related is fine. I've seen ads for garden hoses, garden gloves (I bought some of them) and even greeting cards listed for sale so I really think you should place an ad for your beaded hangers; I bet they will be a hit! Green Grin!

Those Michael's coupons are a killer. If you really want to go broke, subscribe to Fire Mountain's email list. I'm proud of myself though. I didn't even go to the bead fair that was in New Orleans this past weekend. Didn't trust myself to maintain control.

It's the photographing every...single...item and getting it posted in the store that has me hung up. I need to make a photo space here at the house and set it up and just leave it so that I can take pictures of things as I make them and get them listed. If I just listed the plant hangers, that wouldn't be so bad. What's your shop name? I'd love to see your pots!

Fire mountain Gems!!!!! I had one of their catalogues for years and just recently had to get rid of it since I just kept looking at it and not making anything! Taking pictures is my biggest hangup we just made a light box which makes life so much easier.

My shop is called don't laugh Ramona's Shop after our first cat we now have 4 but she is the Queen Hilarious!

I was amazed. I said the same thing about the cats and the paper. I had a lot of furry help taking the pictures. I love your picture of your dog!! My dog would wear anything I put on her.
