Finally! I have wanted to do this DIY project for years! Using succulents, in this case, sempervivums or Hens & Chicks, i covered the outside of a moss basket after planting dichondra silver falls in the center of the succulent topiary basket. This then became an upside down planter with Solar powered led string/fairy lights run around the top and through the Dichondra. I forgot to mention in the video that I did wet the moss before attaching the succulents.

Solar Powered String Lights
I love it! What a great idea!
That was so pretty! The lights made it almost look like it was underwater, in that wavy shadow water makes. I have absolutely no idea how to describe it
So cool!!! Where do you get all these ideas? It's amazing! Every time I watch one of your videos I just want to go buy plants and transform my place into a tropical forest 😉
That planter looks amazing! Also, thanks for all of your videos. They make gardening so joyful and I'm always looking forward to them.
What a fabulous jellyfish planter! I love it and I am going to try it! As far as your question on how to hold the dirt in (excuse me, potting soil! LOL), I think I might try leaving the plastic liner in, cutting a hole big enough to pour all the potting soil in, making sure to press it in firmly, then I would patch up the hole, probably with duct tape LOL. Then I would poke holes where I need to put the plants, I would also poke holes for drainage in the plastic. Just a thought and I think I'm going to try it that way. What do you think?
You’re so creative, the planter looks great!
I love this! I wonder if a combination of chicken wire and weed mat would work to hold all the soil in? Love your work as always!

Looks really cool 😀 The lights hanging at the bottom DO look like the tentacles, 😀
The fan was fine, silly!
That is so cool! Thanks!
So cute. Well done as usual.
What a neat idea, well worth the hard work you put into the upside down hanging basket.
looks nice, hope it does well, cause that was a lot of work!
So pretty!
That looks so cool! By the way… I never hear your fan running, ever. I'm thinking your camera filters out background noise. You're good to go.
