18.01.2022 Tiny plants ... too many to count. My absolute favourite - and it seems plenty of you also love these small creations. . . Some in hand made pots, some in mini macrame, some little sort after turtles and some tiny succulent magnet pots... #toocute #tinyplants #pottery #handmade #plants

17.01.2022 Handmade mini hanging planters (fit in the palm of your hand) - always a winner and perfect on @bonmaxie jewellery hanger #plants #bonmaxie #hangingplants #plantsofinstagram #plantshop #plantsmakepeoplehappy #indoorplants #bohostyle #boho

16.01.2022 Here till 2 today (Saturday) helping people fill their homes with green and buying meaningful Christmas gifts. Hope we get to see you. If you can’t make it today, we love to do personal appointments during the week. . . #vintage #plants #plantsofinstagram #indoorplants #indoorjungle #indoorplantsdecor

16.01.2022 Heart leaf philodendron - such an easy plant - this little baby happy in just a bottle of water slowly creeping down towards the bed. . . I finally just put these cute little shelves (bought @home_dweller ) up on our wall, keeping it simple with a few life treasures and a pothos cutting. ... . . Who else has been loving keeping their cuttings in water long term? I really do find this such an effective way to have plants in bedrooms that you don’t have to look after much at all (a change of water when dry and dust is recommended ). #easyplants #cuttings #plants #plantsinbottle #propogation #ilovemyplants #plantsinwater #indoorplantsdecor #indoorjungle See more

15.01.2022 Handmade (here in The Gap!) mini terracottas all far too cute to handle. . . Little egg cup shaped ones also in the bunker all $21 each, complete with a little plant and water saucer. .... . Because it’s so cute, I think it passes as the perfect gift for almost anyone, even for those not into plants as it pulls off the fun factor because of its itty bitty size. #plants #potted #terracotta #plantsofinstagram #plantsplantsplants #plantstyling See more

14.01.2022 This is me... pretending to water my plants and laughing to @home_dweller (taking the photos) at how awkward I am trying to pose for photos (nothing like my friend @ashtogold who looks so natural in her work ). . . I absolutely love plants. My passion started when we moved to our current house and Joy the previous owner left me with an established succulent garden. It then turned to cacti (outdoors) and then slowly it crept inside ... tho mostly in the last 18 months the ins...ide collection has exploded. . . Above all else I am a mum to three girls. I have been mostly a stay at home parent for the last 10 years which meant I had a lot of ‘energy’ and creativity that needed an outlet before I went ... well ... crazy mad without something that really filled my bucket. The plant bunker has been all that for me and so much more, and hopefully 2021 will be even more fun ... with bigger and better things in the pipeline. . . Thanks to everyone along for the ride . . #prettydresses #wateringplants #plants #cactus #ilovemyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantsofinstagram See more

14.01.2022 @melaniehardy_ceramics small handmade terracotta pots (complete with a little drip tray) and potted up with some lovely plant babies and ready for $34 each at the bunker this weekend or at @the_plant_lovers_market at Aspley (check their insta for details on the plant and record market we are attending). If you like the even smaller stuff ... that’s next #terracotta #handmade #pottery #pottedplants #plantaddict #plantsofinstagram #plantsmakepeoplehappy

12.01.2022 Please tell me it’s not just me that is compiling a list of plant shops overseas as a ‘must do’ list ... I do see the madness in this - finding plant babies that I won’t be able to bring back into the country ... but I also get so much inspiration and joy from a beautiful green space. . . Fingers crossed overseas plant ‘shopping’ is a thing in the future @pileaplantshop you are on my list. ... #plants #plantshop #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantsplantsplants #plantstyling #indoorjungle #indoorjungle #indoorplantsdecor See more

11.01.2022 Not plants - but books - all new and today only until 3pm. All cook books etc only $5 and all funds for charity.

09.01.2022 Oh my - what a perfect collection of Christmas gifts headed out the door - I know this person is going to struggle to give it all away . . Here till 4 today (Friday) or Saturday 9-2. We have also just received yet another pretty delivery filling the bunker to the brim. #gapconomy #plants #present #earrings #plantsandearrings #greengifts #pots #potsandplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy

05.01.2022 Oh this is tots me... except another child, *some* more plants that a scarcely get around to watering and two budgies and their soon to be babies... a few people have asked me how I water / look after so many plants, and the truth is *sometimes* I wish I didn’t have so many as I can’t keep up with them especially with such hot days when they dry out so quickly and every ‘routine’ I try to follow doesn’t really work. I do mostly try to stick with plants that don’t mind drying ...out (lucky I love rhipsalis and cacti!) and recently I bought a bunch of 2L water bottles that I fill up and leave next to the sink and grad one when I get 5min to do a small section of the house, as it doesn’t seem as big a job if it is bitten off into small sections. . . But for all the times I curse myself for having so many plants there are still plenty more times I’m glad I have them ... and go and add another to the collection - I guess that’s why we’re labeled #crazyplantpeople . . .

04.01.2022 Because when doesn’t a whale pot ($46 each) look perfectly placed on a vintage typewriter (also $46 - snap! - and only one of course!) by @banter_vintage . . Here tomorrow (Saturday) 9-2 or see us @the_plant_lovers_market in Aspley. #plants #planter #indoorplants #indoorplantsdecor #indoorjungle #indoorgarden #plantsofinstagram

01.01.2022 I said I would share photos of my own plants and plant filled space for a while now and I don’t seem to get around to it. Well, right this moment I don’t have any kids with me and this particular layer of my house is *almost* perfectly clean (of course I’m not going to show you the photos of all the shopping bags and junk to sort on the other side of the kitchen ). This is also only a start of the plant craziness... . . It’s the styling with plants that I love the most.... . . I love to help people choose the right plants for a particular space and help piece it together with plant ‘accessories’ for the perfect look. My sidekick @banter_vintage is also pretty darn clever at this too. . . I use to stick to the rule of three in styling, but that kind of goes out the window when you can’t stop buying plants - now I’m more into the rule of 300 + / jungle vibe. (Just remember to leave some white space to let the eye relax). . . . . I think that’s why our little studio is different to others - if you want help with plants, advice in keeping them happy and of course styling we have this in spades. . . These are my plant babies and not for sale. @theplantbunker_brisbane has some of these varieties and we try to get some more sort after plants when we can. #myplantlovinghome #myplants #myplantfilledspace #myplanthome #jungle #junglevibes #plantsofinstagram #plantsmakepeoplehappy #indoorplants #indoorjungle See more
