Did you think about turning them upside down? I know I didn&#8217;t but I have to agree that once you do that, they are going to look like live creatures. Perhaps that is how one\u00a0crafty lady came up with the creative creatures you see here.<\/p>\n<p>On her Etsy site, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/shop\/jellyfishkisses\">Jellyfish Kisses<\/a>, Lish Jellyfish (I&#8217;m thinking that is not her real name &#8230; just a guess) integrates\u00a0air plants with sculpted vessels off\u00a0all kinds of creatures. Some are so well-integrated, you might now know it&#8217;s a plant tucked in there, at least not right away. It&#8217;s just fun stuff and I thought these images might push you aspiring air plant vessel makers to thinking beyond upright containers and into other realms. I mean, that is the advantage of\u00a0air plants &#8230; they can be situated in any direction, as long as they have a spot to tuck their toes in and hold on.<\/p>\n<p>For more creative ideas for vessels, just plug-in &#8220;air plant&#8221; and other key words like &#8220;vessel&#8221;, &#8220;clay&#8221;, or &#8220;holder&#8221; into Pinterest, Google Images, Instagram or other favorite visual site and just immerse yourself in all the possibilities!<\/p>\n<p class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"text-align: center;\">_________________________________________<\/p>\n<p class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"likethisblog\">Like this blog?
