Terrarium

That's right....
A Terrarium!!
They're making a come back.


And..
they are really simple to make.


First you need a way cool glass thingy!!
{even one with a lid will work}

Like this.




Then you need:

*A Layer of Pebbles
{small pebbles for drainage}
*A Layer of charcoal
{you can find it in the house plant department}
*A layer of cactus potting soil
{it has sand in it, which is a good thing}
*Some fern type plants
{good because they can handle dark, damp places}
&
*A little garden jewelry
{some fun little trinkets to jazz it up a bit}

Now... layer, plant, jazz it up a bit and you have......



A wonderful Terrarium!!



So... what do you think???


{As always say a little prayer that I keep mine alive!!}

Bye bye now,
