Tea and Some DIY

Some Assembly Required

It’s always fun to introduce new products, especially when they are such a perfect fit for our shop.

Now on display you will find a gift that takes Incahootians’ love of fairy gardens, puzzles, books, plants, and do-it-yourself flair into one amazing kit. These DIY Miniature Houses are made by Robotime and include everything you need to create the fairy-sized greenhouse (or cafe, or garden, or book shop) of your dreams.

Roughly 64 square inches in size when completed, each kit is made mainly from wood, paper, fabric and metal, and all are customizable to your unique sense of style. Each diorama-style scene also features a working miniature lamp or chandelier for that extra charming wow factor. We look forward to hearing your feedback about these projects and taking requests for which designs to order for holiday gift-giving.

Mounted Epiphytes!

Easy to care for and beautiful to look at, epiphytes are a plant that grows on another plant, but is not parasitic, such as the numerous ferns, bromeliads, tillandsias, and orchids growing on tree trunks in tropical rainforests.

They love bright indirect light, but will tolerate medium light.

Let them dry out completely and then fully soak.

Mist the plant (fronds or leaves) daily to keep the environment humid and the plant happy.

Fertilize regularly during the growing season (you can even add fertilizer to your mister and feed them through their fronds and leaves (be careful not to spray flowers)).

Add one to your gallery wall for some depth and texture, or go big and make a whole gallery wall with them! (note: they take time to mount, so please call ahead if you need multiples.)
