Made out of 100% [recycled felt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetra-pak-and-keter), hence its straightforward name, the pods will give plants a warm and cozy home while also bringing a warmth and coziness to the owner's own home. Shaped like a mini UFO, the Felt Pods by Flip & Tumble are lined in plastic so as to better protect the material. It also comes with a dropper to make [watering the plant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tendril-1) easier. Available in three colors (green, orange and grey), the Felt Pod planters will accent any space nicely. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 44% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Recycled Home Decor:** Designing and marketing eco-friendly home decor products made from sustainable materials. - **Compact Planters:** Creating small, space-saving planters that fit well in tight spaces such as apartments, offices, and balconies. - **Fuzzy Planters:** Introducing unique planters made from soft and fuzzy materials such as felt to add warmth and texture to indoor spaces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** Manufacturing and selling eco-friendly home decor products such as planters made from sustainable materials like recycled felt. - **Gardening:** Designing space-saving and easy-to-care-for indoor plants and providing unique planters for small spaces such as apartments and offices. - **Sustainability:** Creating sustainable products with a focus on using recycled materials to reduce environmental impact. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Multifunctional Plant Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/face-plant-planter.md) - [Self-Watering Smart Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-leafypod.md) - [Uniquely Shaped Self-Watering Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/self-watering-plant-house.md) - [Pod-Inspired Bulbous Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pod-collection.md) - [Chic Self-Watering Garden Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glowpear-mini-bench.md) - [Virtual Pet Planter Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-pot-concept.md) - [Compact Canned Houseplants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trader-joes-mini-can-foliage.md) - [Plush Plant-Shaped Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amuseable-bonsai-tree.md) - [Futuristic Self-Watering Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-klaustrafloria.md)
