Bring your boring old business card holder to life. Like actual life with a REAL plant. Or be super boring and just fill it full of pens. There really is no wrong way to use this business card PLANTER.

Originally I designed this to fit a small cactus which I had previously purchased from Ikea. The opening in the base is 70mm and is 55mm deep. In case you're looking for an already potted plant that will fit. However, I've also included a small pot you can print to place your plant in. I would suggest some sort of succulent or air plant because this planter does not have drainage. 

 

Bill of materials:

Nothing special here. In all it's about 115 grams of filament. With a total cost of about $3 to print.

 

Printing:

Again, pretty straight forward here. You should be able to print the pieces in their default orientation. 

Infill: 10%

Supports: None.

 

Assembly:

Ummm. I'm pretty sure you can figure this part out. Place a PLANT in the pot, place the pot in the base, place business cards on stand, and ENJOY. 

 

Notes:

I'll be updating this post with photos of the finished print once it's done. If you decide to print this model please share your photos. I would love to see them.
