Teeny Tiny Crocheted String of Pearls Succulent Inspired by PlanetJune

Senecio rowleyanus, more commonly known as String of Pearls, is an "indoor plant with small, bright green, bead-like leaves that appear on long, slender stems. String of Pearls are usually planted in a hanging basket where it has space to cascade freely. String of Pearls is a succulent, and like other succulent plants, it requires little maintenance to keep it happy and healthy." -Home Guides

Another angle of the String of Pearls. I got the idea from the blog PlanetJune! 

I used embroidery thread for the plant because it's hard to find quality yarn here in Alaska that is thinner than the standard worsted weight. I'm in love with this little plant, but I made it for a friend, so I suppose I'll have to give it up.

the place where my ideas come to life

   

my room, my inspiration: welcome to the place where my ideas come to life. this is where i crochet, browse etsy stores, felt, flip through amigurumi and other craft books, dress, un-dress, and put my face on. it's a busy little room. can you believe that these walls were originally a blindingly hideous glossy brown wall-paneling circa 1970s?? ugh. thank goodness the landlord let me paint over it. i installed the wall shelving, the treasure boxes and mirror for my "vanity" area, and the wall mounted desk. i bought the paper lamps dangling above my bed online at Asian Import Store. the black frame was found at a local thrift store, spray painted black and hung neatly on my accent wall. i successfully manipulated this space into one in which i am comfortable, brightens my mood even during the darkest day of the alaskan winter, and inspires me to create.
