Stackable Totem Planters

My thumbs aren’t exactly black, but they ain’t green either. Which really does make me sad because I love plants. My outdoor butterfly garden has managed to hang in there for the most part (only a few casualties that were quietly replaced), but when it comes to indoor plants I might as well bring them home and toss them directly into the trash. It’s that bad. Lucky for me these stackable totem planters from West Elm look like I could create some amazing desk organization out of them when all else fails. *sigh*
