        Each piece from McLeary's 3 can be worn for two to four weeks before the plants begin to 4 in their metal base. When this happens, wearers can 5 remove the succulents from their metal base and re-pot them to keep in their homes. The jewelry bases can still be 6 as usual. If the pieces are worn for special 7 like weddings, the potted plants become all the more 8.

Before she was a florist, she made jewelry for friends. 11 one of her friend got married, she was asked to design some wedding flowers 12 some jewelry. As she had her friend's flowers in her hands, she knew she had got her idea. She still loves 13 for weddings, but she has found that she enjoy creating floral wears and floral 14 even more.
