Breathing Easy

I am so excited about my woolly pockets! They are an amazing, eco-friendly product that makes adding life to your walls a snap. During Jude's morning nap, I was able to create an beautiful living wall full of air purifying plants. Jason mounted two pockets on the wall:

I added organic potting soil and a bunch of beautiful plants:

Pretty cool, huh? It will look even cooler as the hanging plants fill in. Not only do I like the style of a living wall, it is one of the only ways for me to have houseplants with a baby and a cat. (Anyone who has ever caught their kitty perched on the side of a pot knows what I'm taking about.)

The house plants I chose (from top left: boston fern, ivy, orchid, spider plant, and peace lily) absorb toxins (benzene, trichloroethylene, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, xylene, and toluene) from the air.

Happy indoor gardening!
