Great color and redo of a midcentury hammered aluminum piece. Looks really pretty with color and your faux succulents.
Succulents need to be kept in dry climate, too many of us want to water them too much so the roots die. Also if your house is more humid they don't like that. That's why for real succulents it says to use cactus soil and be very sparing with watering. I have several pieces I started collecting when we lived in KY, there are some very handsome pieces which look nice put together in one spot attractively arranged.
Hammered aluminum isn't supposed to be shiny shiny.

I love how the salmon goes so well with the colors in your tablecloth, too! And it goes well with the reddish edges some succulents have. As I love verdigried copper finish, I think I'd go for that finish. Also, it would be great for a small fairy garden!

I love that color!!!! This would be a perfect project for the screened porch. Faux Succulents look so real these days!

I love this centerpiece. The succulents look so real and the Salmon color is perfect. It makes the plants really stand out. I may be making a trip to Michael's soon. Thanks for sharing.

In reply to Amy. Now if only the weather would look like spring we'd be all set!

In reply to Susan. They really are real looking even up close. And they feel sort of squishy like real succulents :)

Wow! At first glance I thought these succulents were real! What a nice job arranging them. I may try this. I could fool my kitties and they couldn't chew and dig them up like they have done to some of my other houseplants!

In reply to Maryann. I normally do real ones in the summer planters outside, but I just can't, for the life of me, keep them alive for long inside. Problem solved!
