Paula Hayes' line of 'Living Necklaces' is an ideal blend of organic design and [gorgeous jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marbella-club-x-daniela-villegas). These pieces feature tiny planters with crocheted fishing line to be worn around the neck.

In addition to her 'Living Necklaces,' Paula Hayes is also particularly known for her [glass-blown terrariums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lapso). I've featured one such terrarium at the end of the gallery.

I love the idea of jewelry and home decor that is alive, and fortunately we've featured a number of these [organic designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonhuman-life) on TrendHunter.com. Check some of them out below.
