The colourful and charming online store Leif Shop was set up in Brooklyn by writer Stacy Anne Longenecker in 2011. She set out to present special, beautiful things that can add a unique touch to day-to-day living. She says:

I’ve come to notice that the smallest thing can inspire and enrich your daily life, whether it be a crisp new set of thank you notes, a beautiful mug for coffee or tea, stocking your bathroom with scented soap in a pretty glass bottle, or a colourful vase on display in a most frequented room.

The LEIF lifestyle: growing indoor citrus trees, matte pastels, a collection of vintage glass bottles that span the colours of the rainbow, old botanical and anatomical prints, Meyer lemon butter on freshly baked scones, various breeds of succulents scattered throughout the home, a garden full of vegetables, a couch filled with colourful pillows, freshly cut flowers on a reclaimed wood kitchen table, idolizing Jean Seberg, slip-on sneakers and striped t-shirts on a Saturday.

I was having a browse around and these planters caught my eye; they come in all shapes, sizes, patterns and colours, perfect for succulents. The cable knit ceramic planter for example is by designer Hadley Sedgwick and comes in four colours and two sizes. My favourite is the porcelain planter with hand-drawn pastel coloured pyramids that give the surface an organic texture. Check them out here.
