Took a couple of days but after selling Lizzy and Palace, I stripped the viv stack and gave it a bit of a make-over. Thought I'd post some pics of the new inhabitants enjoying their new abodes.

I just may have taken a quick trip to Dunelm

Actually a new shop has just opened near me called Discount UK and they have some fantastic fake plants. The red and orange leaves came from there and only 99p a bunch/pot.

The only problem I have is knowing when to stop. I get a little carried away lol

I too get a little carried away. Viv decorating is so relaxing,apart from when you're fighting with those bendy vines lol!
Looking at the pics Mamma,I'd say she's used suckers and those cable clip thingameebobs.

They look fab, love all the plants. I'm really looking forward to being able to indulge myself with Storm's viv when he's big enough to go in it.

Morts right. I usually hammer in some cable clips and just hook the plants into them, It makes it easier to remove them for cleaning. The dunelm vines are attached to the top of the viv with net curtain hooks. There are a couple of suckers glued to the side of the viv but they were already on when I got it. I don't really like them attached like that as it's a pain to pull the plant out to clean it.
