My love for planters is well documented on Brown Paper Bag. And on Instagram, too—one of the happiest areas of my apartment features a couple of thriving succulents in creature-shaped pots. Emma Jo Alford of Minty Mountain continues this trend with her dazzling animal ceramics. The hand-sculpted hedgehogs, rabbits, and bears are adorably sleepy creatures that have gold accents and in some instances, fancy accessories. The polar bear planter, for instance, has an icicle headdress. How regal!
Emma Jo’s ceramic creations are best suited for plants that require shallow watering or light watering—think cacti, succulents, or air plants. But if you’ve got a brown thumb, these would also make great trinket dishes.
Animal ceramics by Emma Jo are available in the Minty Mountain Etsy shop.
