Small decorations are always adorable. My daughter made me this 3d printed flower pot in the shape of an owl to plant some succulents.
I will explain some tips to plant them properly and prevent them from drying out and dying.

I painted the owl's eyes with black paint to give it more contrast.
Add Soil to the Pot

Fill the pot with soil halfway, to give enough space to the roots of the succulent.
Select the Succulent

The variety of succulents is infinite, choose the succulent that you like the most, this must be of a small size so that it is proportional to the body of the owl.
Insert the Succulent

Carefully insert the succulent into the top hole of the owl, do not worry about it moving, in the next step we will adjust it.
Add More Soil

Finally, with a teaspoon, add soil around the root of the succulent until it is completely filled, this is to adjust the succulent and prevent it from moving and dying.
