Succulents To Liven Up Your Manicure Area

So this post may be a bit off topic, but I thought I would write it anyway for something different.

I have been looking for some plants to have in my manicure area at home, I wanted something that was easy to look after and didnt require too much care. Then I found the solution - succulents!
The problem is, many of us these days just don’t have the time to spend hourslooking after our indoor plants each week, and this means that our plants in our manicure areas become neglected and when plants look sad - it makes us sad.

Succulents

Well - succulents are here to help! There are many different types of succulents and I can help you choose one to suit your area.
Succulents are not hard to care for so they are perfect for those who don't usually have a "green thumb"
Here are some tips for those interested in succulents.

1. Read!

When it comes to how to care for succulents, it is important to know what they need. While they are quite easy to look after, they can also be easy to kill if you do not read the instructions first.

2. Do Not Over Water

Succulents do not like to drink too much! So follow the above mentioned guide along with the manual that usually come with any succulent bought from the place where you bought them. Over-wateringyour succulent will cause it to rot and die.

3. Plant them in a good location

Direct sunlight is great for some succulents, while others do require some shade. Because it is likely your succulent will be indoors, it is important it is placed somewhere that allows it to receive enough (but not too much)natural light.
If you follow these three simple steps along with those in the guide linked, your manicure area will soo be looking much more natural.
