"Sorry, flower crowns!" Michigan florist Susan McLeary has developed a line of rings, bracelets, necklaces, and other accessories (from $19) made from living succulents — those plants you keep around your house because they seem to survive forever without water. At Passionflower, you can buy her living tiara and wear it "for weeks on end" without worrying about the succulents shriveling up and dying, said Alexis Hobbs at Town and Country. Created "with free-spirited brides in mind," it could just as well be worn at a music festival. McLeary also makes succulent boutonnieres for men to wear for proms or weddings.
