Lola Stiletto Succulent Planter by giddyspinster

This is a size six repurposed stiletto heel. This shoe has a steel rod encased in lucite for the heel. The top of the shoe has been removed, and it's been sanded, had holes drilled for drainage, and then planted with an ethereal snow white/ silvery/ lavender, faintly pink succulent in the shape of a strange white rose. The genus is called "echeveria Lola". The succulent plant will need very bright light and just a little water from time to time. In return, with it's tiny thorns at the tip of each "petal", it'll repay you with a stark reminder of how hard it is to...well, to be a woman.
