Last week I was out shopping and came across this cute little glass jar. Well, it was fifty percent off so naturally I put it in my cart and off I went. I have been wanting to make a terrarium for some time now. You see I cannot keep a house plant alive and someone told me that these little fellas are foolproof. So I am stepping out in faith.
Today I went out and bought the plants and soil along with gravel and charcoal. First I layered a little bit of the gravel, then came the charcoal (I found both of these at the pet store), some soil and then last but not least the plants.
What do you think?
It looks cute!

I love it! So beautiful! Do you remember making them in school? I vaguely do... I think my favorite part was putting those little ceramic animals in there that you use to get in tea and making it look like a mini enviroment.
ReplyDeleteThat was funny about giving the colt a hot sudsy bath! lol I can just see that now. LIke bathing a cat with it's two wildcat parents clinging to your arms... I wonder how dirty the water would be?!?! lol
Great project, beautiful containter. Half price? wow!~ My kind of shopper. Do you have Tuesday Mornings where you live?

ReplyDeleteI have faith this is going to grow for you and you won't be giving a plant funeral anytime soon. Hope you will keep us updated on its progress.

That is the cutest thing! What a great idea...I've seen them but never tried one. I'd like to put one on an end table just like you did. Any watering to do? Keep a pic update of it! ;0)
