After quickly feeling distracted by some cool products I saw online, I’ve been wanting to channel myself out, in particular, to occupy my mind with something more therapeutic than feeling isolated inside my flat for days, is to buy a plant.
Yes, I want a plant.
It occurred to me though that keeping a plant indoor is never easy. Talking about maintenance job, from watering day in and day out, making sure it gets enough sunlight so you don’t have to kill someone’s life. For a minute I told myself, “I haven’t started doing it and yet I’m already complaining”. I know this is a simple distraction that I want to build in order to keep my mind sufficiently engaged on something outside of myself.
Then, Enter The Self Watering Pots.

“The Grobal originated from an ambition to create a techno-organic base for nurturing life and cultivating growth. The digital age we live in no longer accepts the semantics of ancient craft and demands multi-sensorial experiences - any object we bring in our house should be an expression of our modern being and development. The iconic egg-like object functions as the foundation for new life - it is a material visualization of digital and sensual technology and nature synthesizing.” - Karim Rashid
The best part here is that they makes houseplants stylish and easy to manage. So all you need to do is to check the water level indicator on the front of it that let’s you know when to refill or as needed – making it impossible to say an excuse that your plant died because you over or under water it. It’s pretty simple.
And I want green, blue and orange. Neato.

I wanna check on this item. The place I assumed that has a similar stuff like this, is in LC home shop in PP.
PS. Did you actually check the area near the The Pawn? The J.Senses (designs by OVO) Apartment is now operational. If you walk through the narrow Ship St, you can find a few restaurants and an al fresco dining at La Fauchon (3rd floor).
He,he… funny that you mention La Fauchon. We tried to go there after we went to the Pawn… but every table was taken. Pah! So we went to some other Japanese resto close by.

We peek-a-boo lang that time at La Fauch, the people were red-wining under the umbrella.
I will be checking that this Sunday, I got the feeling I will be at TST harbour deck shops to find that pot for you. If not, online purchase mo na lang.
