underwater hanging planters

Today, in things that look like other things: these clever ceramic contraptions from California-based maker Cindy Searles. Thrown and carved by hand from delicate porcelain, they transform hardy air plants into twisting tentacles dangling from colourful cephalopod bodies – mini squid, octopi and a pod of gloopy jellyfish. We’re not going to lie. We’re getting some serious lustful feelings for these ones.

To start your own octopus garden, pop over to Cindy’s online store then head here for the soundtrack to your sea-themed planting.
