literally always killin' it

Murderer
Meet Krista
It may come as a shock to you, but this entire brand and concept actually began because of my knack of what can only be described as homicidal horticulture. Having the opposite of a green thumb, I have probably killed more plants than cow farts. Aside from the obviously hilarious (some may say juvenile) pun, the name Wet My Plants Co. was purposefully chosen as a reminder that I'm legit the worst at some things ( keeping plants alive), and the best at others (being ridiculously sarcastic). The key is to always laugh and celebrate all of you!
​
Having moved to NYC from Long Island 3 days prior to the pandemic lockdown of 2020 and being stuck in our NYC apartment, my creative energy was out of control. I knew I had to use my humble artistic talents and witty sense of humor to contribute something positive and uplifting to the world. There was always a calling for it, I just needed the right time to unleash the beast. I began designing greeting cards to spread some much needed love and light in a very unsettling, dark time. From there, my original concept evolved into so much more. I was able to take my hand painted works and put them on home decor and more.
​
My hand drawn and hand painted designs come to life with an open heart, my hope for spreading the happy, tons of love, and limitless positivity.
​
My hope is that you enjoy my art as much as I enjoy creating it! Thank you for taking the time to read this word vomit about me, for your support, and of course, for shopping small.
about our green-ness
we're always Growing. like plants.
As an eCommerce business, we strive to constantly implement more sustainable practices.
Going green is becoming increasingly important, and eCommerce brands like us have no other choice but to comply. As of 2020, 50% of online consumers say that environmental concerns impact their purchasing decisions. Green consumerism is not only a social movement, but is also a behavior and attitude of people aware of environment-related issues, who are also prepared to spend a little more money and steer towards brands that are more attentive to sustainability.
Our concern about reducing waste was a huge factor when we were developing our company’s business model. This is why we chose the eco-friendly practice of Print-On-Demand. We produce only what our customers need, nothing more, nothing less. Waste is virtually eliminated, and production processes are simplified. Print-on-demand is one of the most cost-effective and planet-friendly models out there.
We are always on the lookout for innovative business practices, incorporating a more environmentally conscious lifestyle to protect our planet and the conservation of natural resources.
