Designer Creates Living Floral Jewelry That Grows While You Wear It

by Anna Randal

Susan McLeary is a floral designer, artist and instructor who creates unusual, boundary-pushing floral art including elaborate headpieces, flower crowns, and her signature succulent jewelry. Her soulful, seasonally-inspired creations and floral wearables have been described as exquisite living artwork.  

McLeary creates stunning jewels using actual living succulents that are attached to accessories like bracelets and necklaces. The living gems can grow up to 2-4 weeks, and can continue their growth in a pot, as the user can separate the plant from their base. And since we know you’d want one for yourselves, McLeary’s work can be found on etsy.

 

The only word we can use about these is, wow!
