Mission: To plant darling succulents in a terrarium setting.
Details:
- Succulent Plant(s)
- Clear Glass Jar/Pot
- Potting Soil
- Rocks (for filler)
- Embellishments
Tips & Tricks Learned:
Not only are succulent plants adorable – they grow fast!
And, you can use little trinkets you have around the house to adorn your terrarium planting. I had seashells from a previous vacation, a mini deer found in my kids toys and some cute hand-stamped spoons I added to one.
Pros:
This is an easy and fun project to do – all you need is dirt, a darling glass jar/pot and plants. And, you can have fun adoring the finished planter as well! Definitely worth a try for anyone out there!
Cons:
Can’t think of any! What’s not to love about a succulent plant bringing life into your home?!?!?
Conclusion:
I LOVE gardening of all kinds and enjoy having greenery in my home. Creating a terrarium is easy, fun and a great addition to the home. I plan to do this many times over!
Reviewer #2 - Maren
Mission: Can I really make a delightful little terrarium like I have been seeing EVERYWHERE myself?!?!
Details:
- Vase
- Pebbles
- Dirt
- 2 little Succulents
- 1 tiny rubber Deer
Tips & Tricks Learned:
Be careful what you stick in there… initially I had these little mushrooms from the craft store and within a couple of days they were totally furry with mold. Gross.
Pros:
One of the quickest, easiest and most impressive-looking projects ever!!
Cons:
None! I love this thing!
Conclusion:
Thank you, “Do-it-Yourself-Terrarium” for making me feel like a professional gardener and look like I really have my shit together to all who come to my home!
