[@MattCarves]

Cool. Love it how your workshop is outside.You sure look like you got good weather for growing succulents. cheers

[@NorCalSucculentShop]

Thanks for watching. Yes the weather is great here in the SF Bay Area, CA. It gets a little hot for the succulents but I put a 50% shade net over the greenhouse in the summer.

Those planters are beautiful!

Hi, thanks for the information. Looks beautiful. Love your shop. I live in Mexico and one beach has so much driftwood it would be a heaven for people like you. All sizes, shapes and amazing details on the driftwood. Good luck to you!

Thank you.

[@earthrider700]

So cool, I'm gonna make a hanging one for my window 😁 👍

[@NorCalSucculentShop]

kare more it’s fun designing them. Each one is so different. Sometimes I hate when I have to pack them up and send them to their new owners.

[@dougepalmerchopchop]

Thank you for the informative video. Great job. Inspired me to get some more tools : ) definitely gonna make a few for friends and family. Another excuse to drive 6 hours to the beach. I go to Brookings Oregon. keep up the good work. Found you by Jordy.

[@NorCalSucculentShop]

Doug Palmer thanks for watching. I only started carving and opening my Etsy succulent shop because of Jordy @carvingfusion

[@gypsysoul-otraveling4301]

Thank you for the heart with my reply. Do you wash the driftwood or bleach the driftwood to remove sand, bugs and dirt before you add the plants?

[@Tejiendopuentesdeamistad4858]

Wuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwww 👏👏 yo las puse en la vaina de la flor de una palmera

[@gypsysoul-otraveling4301]

Hi. Great video. Do you wash them or bleach them to remove sand, bugs and dirt?

[@NorCalSucculentShop]

I power wash the driftwood then soak garbage can filled with bleach water. Then let them dry in the sunshine. 😁

[@terrybaez8495]

Do you sell just the carved wood & if so, how much?

[@NorCalSucculentShop]

I normally sell the carved wood with succulents planted. I’m all out of driftwood at this time. I waiting for a storm to blow some wood on shore.

[@markrhine5116]

i like it i like it allot.

[@NorCalSucculentShop]

Mark Rhine Thanks for watching.

[@jig121]

Do you not use a wood sealant?

[@NorCalSucculentShop]

I normally do not use any sealant, but I have tried different sealants on a few planters.

[@jig121]

@@NorCalSucculentShop Which sealant would you think is the best? I use polyurethane when I do wooden pots

[@NorCalSucculentShop]

I use Minwax polyurethane and it seams to work very well.

[@jig121]

@@NorCalSucculentShop Okay cool! You have the legit tools haha. My father and I use a chainsaw, a drill with a drill bit, and a hammer and chisel. Hopefully one day we can afford the legit wooden equipment.
