If you're looking for a way to add some greenery around your home, these indoor planters shaped like a pair of cupping hands are a quirky and handy alternative.

Designed by Esty shop owner Dima Gurevich, these [porcelain planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramic-planters-1) are shaped like two hands cupped together. When you put a plant inside, it'll look as though a pretty pair of hands are lovingly holding nurturing the plant's growth. Each of these hand planters are molded in white porcelain after Gurevich's own hands. Because of the individual shape of Gurevich's hands, these indoor planters have a rare, asymmetrical shape.

If you like these plant holders but aren't a fan of plants, you could fill them up with change, keys or jewelry instead.
