  • The White Urchin with Tillandsia Air Plant is a creative pairing of a natural sea urchin shell and a living Tillandsia, a genus of epiphytic plants in the bromeliad family native to Central and South America and the southern United States. Tillandsias are commonly called air plants because they require no soil to grow, drawing moisture and nutrients directly from the air around them. This combination turns an organic coastal keepsake into a miniature living display.

    The white sea urchin shell serves as a natural vessel, its rounded, textured form contrasting beautifully with the soft, arching green to silvery-green leaves of the Tillandsia nestled inside. The spiky, rosette-shaped air plant typically stays compact, reaching just a few inches in width, making it ideal for small shelves, windowsills, terrariums, or as a standalone accent piece on a desk or tabletop.

    This arrangement makes a charming gift and fits effortlessly into coastal, bohemian, or minimalist home decor. Because it needs no soil or pot, it is wonderfully versatile and easy to move around the home. This plant is best placed away from curious cats and dogs, and kept out of reach of young children to protect the delicate shell and plant.
  • Tillandsia air plants thrive in bright, indirect light. Place yours near a sunny window where it receives several hours of filtered light each day. Avoid prolonged direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the delicate leaves. Fluorescent or full-spectrum grow lights also work well if natural light is limited in your space.

    Water by misting the leaves thoroughly two to three times per week, or by gently removing the plant from the shell and soaking it in room-temperature water for 20 to 30 minutes once a week. After soaking, shake off any excess water and allow the plant to dry completely within four hours before returning it to the shell. Standing water trapped in the base of the leaves can cause rot, so good airflow after watering is essential.

    No soil is needed for Tillandsia air plants. They absorb water and nutrients through tiny structures on their leaves called trichomes. The sea urchin shell simply acts as a decorative holder. If you ever want to display the plant differently, it can rest on any clean, dry surface or be placed in a terrarium, on driftwood, or mounted with safe adhesive.

    Tillandsias prefer temperatures between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit (10 to 32 degrees Celsius). They appreciate good air circulation, so avoid placing them in sealed containers or stuffy corners. Keep them away from heating or air conditioning vents, which create dry, harsh airflow that can stress the plant. Normal household humidity levels are generally sufficient, though occasional misting helps in drier climates.

    Feed your Tillandsia once a month using a bromeliad or air plant fertilizer diluted to one quarter of the recommended strength. Apply it by misting the leaves directly with the diluted solution. Fertilizing is optional but encourages healthier growth and can prompt the plant to produce its colorful bloom when it reaches maturity.
  • USDA Hardiness Zones 9-11 | Minimum temperature: 25°F (-4°C)

    In zones 9 through 11, Tillandsia air plants can be displayed outdoors in a sheltered spot with bright, filtered light and good airflow during warm months. Bring them indoors when temperatures drop below 50 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius), as they are sensitive to cold and cannot tolerate frost. In cooler zones, they are best grown year-round as indoor plants near a bright window.

Reasonably adequate room divider
Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Beige
I'm reviewing this as I assemble it. Couple things: 1. I didn't expect as much assembly. I've ordered dividers before and they more-or-less came as one unit. Sometimes the panels needed screwing together. These require complete assembly and come largely as three rods: two make up vertical columns and snap together. Another one (called part "C") makes the horizontal columns and you have two of these per panel (one attaches to part "A" and the other part "B"). These parts are metal with a plastic shim. Using the wood screws to attach to part "C" is a real pain in the neck. There's not much holding the panel in place so it's a little tricky. One tactic I've found while I'm assembling that works for the initial connections from parts A and B to their respective "C" rods is to hold the screw in place with a screw driver and then rotating the rod around the screw. This will do a number on your hands if you aren't wearing gloves. This obviously doesn't work when completing the connection. Using a driller driver on this is really near impossible because there isn't anything you can use to secure it in place. You can use it on the first panel, but as it gets longer, it becomes increasingly difficult and because it isn't wood, it's really tight. I considered drilling larger pilot holes but since there are only 4x4=16 screws I need to screw in, I just decided to use my screw driver to complete it. 2. Also related to assembly. When completing the panels (attaching parts "A" and "B" to parts "C" that have the cloth cover on it), you have to be careful that when you tighten that side that it isn't loosening the other side. Because the pilot holes are so tight, you can end up rotating the rod, which rotates it in the same direction as looser on the original side. Having someone hold the "C" rod in place while you screw it in is probably the easiest approach. I didn't have a 2nd person, so I just had to keep flipping back and forth and tightening both sides as I screwed it in. Not the worlds biggest deal, but annoying nonetheless. 3. The way the instructions are written, they seem to suggest building this thing progressively; that is, you do panel 1, then 2, connect them together, then do 3 and connect it, etc. I took a different route that I suspect saved me quite a bit of trouble, and I assembled all four panels first and THEN connected everything together. 4. For the love of God make sure you check that the plastic tip is on the same side for every panel. Otherwise, you have to take one side apart again and reverse it. On the bright side, if this happens, you've essentially bored out the pilot holes to be the correct size... which is having me question if I shouldn't have just bored them out to the appropriate width in the first place. 5. Attaching all of the panels together is also an enormous pain in the ass unless you happen to have an 88" long elevated surface. Attaching the legs either requires you to elevate one side, which will invariably twist the inexplicably cheap material in the bottom connectors... or you can attach them sideways... or you can put this thing upright, having two people hold the panels in place while you use the allen wrench to tighten the bolts on the underside. None of those are particularly great options. NOW on to the utility itself. 1. The panels do let some light through (I didn't believe their advertising, and that was one of the reasons that I bought beige, is that I wanted it to not be too dark). They aren't transparent though, so it isn't that far off from their description. They functionally work great, and keep the mess of wires hidden and when I'm sitting at my desk, actually reflect quite a bit of light into my office. Great! 2. My wife has described these as "the most hideous piece of furniture ever conceived of by man." So it does not have spouse approval factor. Granted, she will seldom be in my office area, so that isn't the end of the world. 3. These are really hard to align in a way that doesn't look a little tacky. There are some plastic connectors but they don't do a bang up job of keeping these in place. Each panel is slightly tilted and it's... quite obvious. I may at some point make my own improvements to these to help make them more level. It's not a particularly expensive product so I wasn't expecting much so it's fine and I'm not going to ding them on the rating because of it. All said, would I buy this product again? Probably not. It's assembly was ~90 minutes which is about 75 minutes longer than I was anticipating spending on this (not including the 5 minute writeup that I'm doing here). But am I going to return it? Also no, if for no other reason I'd be just as annoyed taking it apart and putting it in the original box to return it.

Great privacy screen
Size: 6 Panel-119"W, Color: Beige
I have a studio apartment and the bathroom is in my bedroom. I bought this to section the area off so guests can use my bathroom without seeing my entire bedroom. This is perfect for that! It looks very nice and offers alot of privacy. The screen is fabric and good quality! I’m a middle aged woman and put it together myself in about 2 hours. Love this!!!

Nice divider 6 panel with wheels.
Size: 6 Panel-119"W, Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel-119"W, Color: Black
The wall works great , and I put it together by myself. I only gave it what I did because I have to move one or two of the panels on one end around a bit daily to make an opening to pass through. I find I have to check the screws that hold those legs/feet on frequently and retighten them. Beyond that everything was pretty good quality. (I ended up magnetizing an Allen wrench to one of the feet.) I also put on motion lights to the rollers so you’ll see them and don’t trip.

I was looking for something to separate my two boys and give them both their own space. So far this room divider has worked well. It’s 6 feet tall and the fabric is dark and thick. You won’t see anything on the other side. Good quality and easy to assemble ✅
