I would LOVE to see a video of all your Epipremnums!! I got my first marble queen pole going and now I want to put every pothos known to man on a moss pole 😂
You def want to put the mod on thick in order for it to work! The thicker the coat, the more protection. It always takes longer than what the bottle says, imo! But it looks great!! Love this pots too!
If you want to paint your pots and have a little texture buy some FolkArt Terracotta paint. I’m obsessed with the Obsidian color, but there are tons of options. This is what I paint my thrifted cashe pots with. It adheres well to pretty much everything and is durable. Most times I only need one coat as well.
At 27:10 when you were telling the ghost story and the cat walked by I was like “THERE IT IS!” 😮 but just turned out to be the cat lol 😂 Thanks for sharing your plant chores with us!
You’re right, it’s not just a plant leaf, it’s like people who have their child’s first shoes bronzed. Great video, I was doing plant chores along with you.
I'm super skeptical all the time but my old house was haunted. Like I've actually seen an apparation. And I believe in science but after that I will not go to places that are said to be haunted. I take it way too serious now :') I look forward to the next video! I've saved my first pollen and hoping to use it this summer. Will be super educational for me :)
I passed right by them at first because of the color but loved them the second time though lol. The texture spray was a little expensive but I’m still glad I painted them!
Hi! I'm so glad I found your IG and YT because I've learned so much from you. You're so delicate and kind to your plants and made me realize how much I've neglected mine. I have a besseae aff, which I never potted after I bought it, and it looks soooo sad... all my anthirium do lately, but I'm definitely motivated to give them some love and bring them back life! May I ask why you put sphagnum on top?
Your Forgetti is so beautiful, it’s hard to find the dark one with minimal green lines. Stunning! Congrats on you Anthurium seed babies. I think Savanah is one of the most haunted places in the country. 😱💚🫶🏼 Could you tell what was said when you heard the voice ? 💚
@@plantsbymelissa you're the main one I go to for plant help lol. Your content and videos has helped me so much. Also you're real and honest about it all!!
I love the leave idea, I’m totally going to try it 😊 I might test try on leave, Rust-Oleum matte clear enamel and see how effective it is. It would be nice to use a spray can lol
@@plantsbymelissa oh man!!! That’s such a bummer 😩 we’ll have to figure out a way to make this work… I’ll experiment with a few things… I’ll definitely let you know the outcome lol
Love this video! Love the leaves; bird of paradise leaf will be great. Can you modge podge fresh green leaves or they need to be totally dry? Love your aroid mix. Thanks for sharing Melissa!
Thank you, carol. The leaf is starting to rot some so I think I didn't let it dry long enough. I know you can preserve fall leaves that retain color but this leaf still had a lot of water I guess so it isn't holding up. I'm going to see how it goes though.
Cats are very good to have close by if your house is haunted, they're known to ward off bad spirits and Luna is so attached to you I doubt anything could get near you 😹
How about composting clips, as you do lots of repotting I think it will be more interesting to compost and reuse, lots cheaper and doesn't need much work or space and helps the environment 😊
This was a fun video. I enjoyed watching you do all the crafts but you definitely needed to let the green leaf dry out. I mean dry out, possibly town out. That’s when it’s dry. I’m afr add I’d you’re going to get more browning that might turn to rot. I hope not. The pots were so absolutely adorable. Painting them was a genius idea. Maybe next time, to keep them from sticking to the cardboard from sticking yo the pot, put dome Saran Wrap, or wax paper and tape it down. That might help keep it from sticking. And the two turned into three plants looked beautiful.
Yes, it is starting to rot some so definitely didn't let it dry long enough. oh well, I'll see how it goes here. Maybe I can do a leaf skeleton with it 🫶
I feel like I have talked about it a lot haha. Yes, we spoke on insta and they decided to unfollow me and blame me for not knowing how to water my plants 😂 very professional 🫶
Hello, I went to a botanical garden over the weekend and brought back a dragon scale. I have never been good at keeping plants alive but I decided to really try. Well now it’s getting brown spots. The soil was dry so I did water it when I got home. How can you tell if it was just from being under watered there or if it’s fungal? Thank you
It's hard to tell sometimes but usually if it's fungal it starts to spread more over the leaf and other leaves. Some can definitely spread fast. If I'm not sure I just spray it with a fungicide and keep an eye on it just in case.
Would love to see ur husband on here. You are such a nice gently spoken person. I can’t imagine you shouting at anyone lol. Pls bring him in one of ur videos. I always like to put a face to the name lol. If he won’t it’s fine lol.
I've always loved the handles for your cabinet 😍 Also!...I can't believe how many plants you have in that substrate to get out of still, I pray your plants survive and so does your mind lol 😂 💚🪴🌱* *Edit* * I love how the leaf art came out!!!!
Thank you! They’re from Amazon! They’re a close dupe to the free people one! Here’s a link! www.amazon.com/dp/B0BQRTSLYW?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzmeli0992-20&creativeASIN=B0BQRTSLYW&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.3ROMN6GEG911X&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_m_asin
Honestly, I’m here for the ghost stories haha.
I started a marble queen on a moss pole because I love yours so much!
🥹🫶
One of your kitties creeped along the wall when you were telling the ghost story and I jumped 😱🤣
Haha I must have missed that!
At 27:11 ish? Lol yeah he came outta nowhere!!!
I would LOVE to see a video of all your Epipremnums!! I got my first marble queen pole going and now I want to put every pothos known to man on a moss pole 😂
I need to do more collection videos! I have been wanting to film some!
I love them! haha it's hard not wanting them all to climb. You're going to love the marble queen once it starts climbing!
You def want to put the mod on thick in order for it to work! The thicker the coat, the more protection. It always takes longer than what the bottle says, imo! But it looks great!! Love this pots too!
Good to know! I definitely was being impatient with it 😂
Have you ever seen people dry and preserve flowers in silica beads? It’s supposed to dry things out but maintain the color! You should try that!!
I'll have to look that up, I haven't seen that :)
the masking tape trick is a game
changer! Loved all of your projects!

Oh thank you! I’ll look this up! I appreciate it!! 🥰
Your preserved leaf art looks amazing!!
Thank you! 😊
Loved the Shadow box!!! 🪴🌿💚🙋🏼♀️🐩
Thank you, Nina! 🫶🥰
Liked your projects a lot, preserving your leaves is a great idea and you did a great job. Thanks for the video.
You are so welcome!
Plants and pots are perfect together! Also shadowbox is such a great idea - love it!
I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing your DIY projects. The Anthuriums look amazing now💚
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you!!
I love your videos. You’re such a real, genuine person. Looking forward to the next video.
Thank you so much, Karen 🥹
Everything looks great
Do a ghost hunt giirrl!!! Savannah is so so haunted lol
I love listening to your videos when doing plant chores lol
We've done a couple ghost tours downtown but not recently. I get spooked! lol
At 27:10 when you were telling the ghost story and the cat walked by I was like “THERE IT IS!” 😮 but just turned out to be the cat lol 😂
Thanks for sharing your plant chores with us!
haha I had to look back and watch that part. She heard me talking lol
You’re right, it’s not just a plant leaf, it’s like people who have their child’s first shoes bronzed. Great video, I was doing plant chores along with you.
Thank you so much! 🥹🫶
The frame is really pretty ,these leaves r beautiful in it👍
I place mine on canvas,so there’s air to avoid mould ...

That's scary! I haven't actually seen anything but I believe in them! I hope you an get an anthurium to cross with your saved pollen!
I got those exact blue pots with the exact same intention of painting them. I wish they had offered them in other colors because I love the shape too.
I passed right by them at first because of the color but loved them the second time though lol. The texture spray was a little expensive but I’m still glad I painted them!
Beautiful leaf, a lot of memories with that leaf also! Everything looks 😊

I gotta love a good diy! Definitely wanna try painting some pots I haven’t used because they aren’t in my color palette 😅
I am at my desk at work and sooooo enjoying this video.
Thank you! ☺️🙏🏼

I don't remember! It was talking like a soft whisper, you could hear that it was a voice but I was startled in the moment and blanked 🙈 Thank you!!
The leaf art turned out nice 👌
Thank you so much 😊
I love this leaf project! Amazing!
Thank you! 😊

still the nicest collection ive ever seen! when you use insecticidal soap or rust spray do you leave it on there or do you end up rinsing it off?
Thank you :) I leave it on and it dries down.

You’re supposed to prime before using the texture spray paint 😃
Oops. Just got to the part where you reloaded that lol
haha yeah, I probably should have looked up how to do it right. I sorta just go with the flow a lot lol
I wanna buy some babys that would be so amazing
💚💚💚

Do you have a 9 to 5 job that you have to go to?
I’m trying to do RUclips/social media full time. I was a bedside nurse for 10 years and still have my license but left during the pandemic 🫶🏻
Great video! Very creative this time around!

That’s awesome I was gonna get one from them I’ll check this one first !!!! Love your videos!!
What makes plants sad???
Not growing when they should be. I know most of my plants pretty well so I get a feeling when something isn’t right with them.
