This Jersey Shore plant shop has various house plants stored in adorable, thrifted planters which are frequently featured on the shop\u2019s Instagram account.&nbsp; Mineral Shop inspects and re-pots all the available plants for purchasing (bug-free plants are always a plus). If a pot has drainage, the store adds an extra layer of horticultural charcoal, which helps absorb any extra impurities or moisture from the soil. After selecting a plant, photograph your aura here (walk-ins only) during store hours: Wednesday to Saturday, 12PM to 5PM, and Sunday, 12PM to 4PM.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sanctumhandmade\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sanctum Handmade<\/a> | 601 Cookman Avenue, Asbury Park<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-168087\" src=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/05\/sanctum-handmade-800x800.jpg\" alt=\"sanctum handmade\" width=\"450\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/05\/sanctum-handmade-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/05\/sanctum-handmade-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/05\/sanctum-handmade-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/05\/sanctum-handmade-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/05\/sanctum-handmade-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/05\/sanctum-handmade-585x585.jpg 585w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/05\/sanctum-handmade.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sanctum Handmade is a Cookman Avenue plant shop that will catch the eye of anyone walking downtown. Its triangular windows give plenty of light to the plants on the ledges. The windows also typically display air plants placed inside Modern Brass Himmeli Geometric plant hangers decorated with crystals and tassels. Shoppers can select from hanging plants, succulents, preserved flowers + greens, and mounted plants; there is always a fun twist on the traditional plant, such as the wood and moss-mounted staghorn ferns. Owner Justine Hudak handmakes brass geometric Himmeli ornaments, macrame wall hangings, and plant hangers to purchase in addition to a new plant baby. The boho vibes of this shop are topped off with vases (look for the pyramid-shaped vase), ceramic planters, and zero-care-required crystal terrariums. This shop has more than just house plants; expect to be tempted to purchase a self-care product, artwork (the dried floral portraits are a favorite), candles, crystals, or clothing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sparrowsnestflorist.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sparrows Nest Flower Shop<\/a> | 65 Sylvania Avenue, Neptune City<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This Neptune City plant store is the go-to spot for anyone looking for a basket arrangement of living potted plants for a special occasion such as a birthday, a simple &#8216;thinking of you&#8217; message, or a get well soon sentiment.
