fake plastic greens

One of my latest obsessions comes courtesy of my aunt who has recently relocated to Japan - something that arrived unexpectedly in the post, in a little white box.

I can't tell you how much I love what was in that box. It was an adorable little plastic plant whose leaves gently move and bounce via solar powered battery. (Is that not the most brilliant invention ever?!) After recently killing - not intentionally - yet another houseplant, I was just about at wit's end, horrified at the thought of having to resort to cut flowers for the rest of my life (yawn).



Look at my baby - I feel like a proud new parent. 'Ooooohs', 'ahhhhs', and 'awwws' welcome.
