Personalizing your desk is arguably one of the most important things. Consider the fact that many of us work at some sort of desk for around 8 hours of our days, if not more! Your workspace really becomes part of you.
So, your workspace should reflect, well, you! And these teacup gardens are just the cutest things to bring a piece of the outside world right to your desk.
I’ve seen people transform vintage teacups into tiny succulent planters, but these tiny teacup gardens are just darling!

I know, I sound like I came out of a romantic drama in the ’50s, but it’s true.
People take delicate vintage teacups and fill them with a bunch of tiny props to make them look like a shrunken version of a life-sized garden.

You can fill them with anything and everything you like, like Starbucks!
They really don’t have to be super extravagant.

You can make them as minimal or as detailed as you like.
If you use fake greenery, then you don’t have to worry about losing hope about the dying succulent on your desk for everyone in the open office to see.

But, by all means, if you have a green thumb, really make the teacup come to life with a real plant.
If you’re not sure where to start, here’s a step-by-step tutorial to get you on your way.
