When it comes to gardening, people are always finding new, exciting ways to be creative! This time they decided to take fairy gardens to the next level and make some incredible mermaid gardens! They’re just as fantastical as fairy gardens, but they have this under-the-sea theme that makes for incredible garden ideas. Hope you love them as much as I do. Check them out!

Succulent Style

There’s no doubt that succulents are a huge trend at the moment, so this mermaid garden is a great option to keep it modern! You could display this with some more succulents and seashells around - I’m sure it would look incredible.

Repurposed Terra-Cotta

Repurposing and recycling should be a part of our daily lives, and this is a great way to repurpose any broken or old terra-cotta pots you may have lying around.

More than that:

It’s a great project to get creative and even if it goes wrong, it’ll probably end up right (that’s because there are no rules here, it’s all about how you’ll design it).

Beach Vibes

Even if you don’t have a green thumb, you should still give this mermaid garden a chance! Sure, this isn’t exactly a garden per se - which is why it’s perfect for those who have trouble keeping plants alive - but we’re talking about mermaids, right? So a beach shore option would eventually come around - and it looks beautiful!

Sleeping Beauties

Kids also like having their own decorations around, and this nice representation of mermaids at shore would be lovely in a little girl’s room! It can even be a nice way to tell them a bedtime story since the mermaids are indeed asleep in this particular garden. But of course, it’s totally up to you!

Aloe Mermaid

This aloe vera plant with the sitting mermaid looks wonderful! It’s simple to make - there’s nothing besides seashells, an aloe plant, and a mermaid in there - and it’ll be beautiful either in your backyard or as a front porch decoration!
