cacti mail

A letter I sent out recently to Aurelie in reply to her lovely mail :-)

She's a fellow cacti lover!

p.s. if you want to make a cute cactus origami, there are instructions here. 

Valentines Pot Plants

Just some little pots that I painted for my friends for valentines day :-)

I seriously can't get enough of cacti!

I took this photo on a stroll through Wollongong Botanic Gardens, which is right across from my university :-D

Some sweet little cacti I saw on a bike ride in Thailand. I adore the pink spotty pot!

Vintage Cactus Postcards

Recently I bought a whole bunch of vintage cactus postcards off eBay and they arrived!! I am completely in love with them and can't wait to send some out! So if you would like a cactus postcard for free just email me at em.odonnell94@gmail.com and I will send you one :-)

Aren't they simply divine? Some of them are used and the postmarks show that they range from the 1940s to the 1970s. I love that some of them are used, it makes them so special. Below is one of my favourite used ones. I just find it so strange and funny that they asked for a rug catalogue on a cactus postcard- so random. And I love that it's typewritten.

I also bought some vintage Los Vegas postcards - mainly because of that divine pink hotel in the bottom left, oh how I would love to stay there!

I love love love cacti! I seriously can't get enough of them. I would buy a hundred and fill my whole room with them if I could but they are so darn expensive! These are my beloved cacti :-)

My ma bought this one for me at a garage sale and I love it!

 I've had this one for over a year and I'm pretty sure he's dead because he hasn't grown in all that time, but oh well :-P I love the little mexican on the tag and the funny grammar.

I found this pot at an op shop. It's made out of aluminium, like those pretty vintage cups you see.
