🪿 Calling the sweet woman I met at the gems farmers market today…

You told me your friend is having a “Silly Goose” themed baby shower in August, and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. So… I painted this! 🥹🍓🌼

One thing I’ve really been wanting to do with Desert Darling is create custom pieces for baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, weddings, and other special events. I love bringing someone’s theme to life, and your idea inspired this little goose.

If this somehow finds you, I’d love to gift this pot to your friend for her baby shower. ❤️

Friends, help me find her by sharing this post! And if you’re planning a special event and want custom-themed succulent favors or hand-painted pots, I’d love to help make your vision come to life. 🌿✨

Looks like our Pokémon pot found the perfect Pokémon fan! 🥹🌵⚡

Nothing makes us happier than seeing someone find a pot that feels like it was made just for them. This little succulent has officially found its forever Trainer! 💚

🌵🤍 New fuzzy friends have arrived! 🤍🌵

Meet the Panda Plant—one of the cutest succulents around! 🐼

✨ Fun fact: It gets its name from the fuzzy, silver leaves with dark brown tips that look just like a panda’s ears and paws! No wonder it’s one of the most loved succulents.

Stop by and create your own Desert Darling before they’re gone!

🌵✨ Meet Marianna, creator of our second Darling of the Week! ✨🌵

Congratulations, Marianna! 💚 Last week, she stopped by the Desert Darling Potting Bar and created the sweetest little succulent for her bedroom décor. Watching her carefully scoop the soil, choose her plant, and make it her own was so much fun!

There’s something special about creating a piece that will brighten your own space every day, and Marianna absolutely nailed it. 🌿

Thank you for spending part of your day with us and for supporting our little business. We hope your new Desert Darling brings lots of smiles to your room! 💕

What a beautiful night! 🌵💚

Thank you to everyone who stopped by Desert Darling at Canal Side Social tonight. We loved seeing so much creativity, from picking the perfect succulent to adding all the little finishing touches.

There’s something so special about watching people slow down, get a little messy, and make something sweet to take home. 🪴✨

We can’t wait to pot with you again soon!
