plants on the wall and crazy fun decor

Posted this house that I saw in the Sept. 2007 California Home+Design mag, (click over to AT:LA for my post- the house was done by the cool folks at Sundayland)- I am strangely obsessed with how they hung the cactus pot in the kitchen. I want to have a pot hanging off the wall like that- how cool is that? I don't know how or where I'd find a metal ring thing like that but I want one. I suppose you could just put a shelf up, but it's not the same effect. I remember seeing an iron garden trellis type thing awhile back, but that was a whole set up thing- I would just want the arms... any ideas? Also, I love the unexpected color combos they used and am so drawn to this image of the semi-cheezy 80's garden wallpaper with the color coded bookcase. It feels so fun and fresh.

Just yesterday I was perusing the HGTV Decorating pool at Flickr and came across this photo, and was thinking how totally cool the hanging plants were!

What a fun house! Makes me want to paint my bathroom black -- and I love that tiny sliver that's showing of the blue door.

I've seen that sort of ring for terra cotta pots at garden shops for outdoor use.
I don't know if they are that long though.

The pot is the first thing that caught my eye. I've seen those rings from time to time online from garden supply stores. Not in black, but that would be easy enough to do with some spray paint. They're usually green.

It could also be a modified ring stand like those used in chemistry labs.
