How cute is this hand made air plant pouch?! Show off a baby air plant, some interesting moss, or other Liliputian favorite so the world can see your artsy side. And while fragrances should normally be kept away from silver jewelry (tarnish warning!), there's nothing wrong with stashing a small, absorbent bit of cotton inside this necklace (because will you care about tarnish in there?), soaked in your favorite perfume or essential oil. Or, if you're like Babs, who turns most perfume to "pickle juice" on her skin, you can enjoy fragrances using this method that normally don't do well directly on your body.
