Stamped Planter DIY

I love having custom stamps made of my lettering or illustration. I’m about to give some sweet little succulents as a gift and was trying to think of a way to quickly personalize the terracotta. I grabbed a positive sentiment “hell yes” and stamped it a few times so it appeared on each side.

  • I get my stamps made here. There are lots of sizes to choose from. I’ve had some really big ones printed up.
  • Since you are stamping on a rounded surface you just place the stamp on one edge and gently roll it around the curve to get a clean print.

Would you try this?

Nothing says autumn like crisp air and the sweet smell of spiced apple cider and cinnamon. I can’t wait to go apple picking with my family and reap the benefits of having a baker as a mom.

Here are some recipes I found that belong in your belly:

Forever pieces for my fall wardrobe

These items are forever pieces for me. I am certain without a doubt I’d never get tired of any of them for Autumn and beyond…

  1. J. Crew Hacking jacket in wool check (oh those elbow patches!)
  2. See By Chloe Annette Clutch (in that timeless oxblood red everyone’s been melting over for fall in the perfect shape for me. I’m a hands free kind of purse person)
  3. Rag & Bone Newberry Classic booties (with jeans, skirts or trousers. Something tells me Stevie Nicks might dig these.)
