Faceted Modular Succulent pot

Inspired by my sister, the crazy plant lady, and her home full of succulents

Just in case you didn't know:

Succulents can propagate (make babies) from every single one of their leaves! Once one falls off, it can be re-potted to grow into a brand new succulent. I wanted to make a pot that could keep the babies and the momma plant together without taking up too much space while also looking good!

Initial Sketches

Ideas started from thinking about geometric planters and evolved into using the facets on gems to be the smaller pots for succulent leaves

Now I have a strange amount of knowledge pertaining to how gems are faceted!

Rough Shape

I followed this amazing tutorial to get some surface modeling down to make a proper brilliant round cut diamond!

After the initial shape, I was able to form it easily into the final succulent pot.

Finished 3D model

Each facet is its own mini modular plant pot attached to the larger main plant pot in the center. The small facet pots slide down onto the pegs of the main pot at the angle so that they don't slip off. The smaller propagated plants don't require as much soil so the main mass of the
