‘Jewelry for green thumbs’ is how Colleen Jordan, an Atlanta-based industrial designer, describes her 'wearable planter' creations.
The range of small 3-D printed vases allow you to cart a small flower, fern, or plant around in the form of a necklace, brooch, or even a bicycle embellishment.
The designs, are drip-proof to avoid soiling wearers' clothes and are priced between $22 and $45 on Etsy.
