Terrariums

Since working at a greenhouse for the last few months, I have been inspired by all the beautiful plant life  out there.  What has caught my eye and many others these days are succulents, easy to care for plants.

I love the book, Terrarium Craft by Amy Bryant Aiello and Kate Bryant, it has fabulous ideas and is a source of fantastic inspiration.

Here are a few of my projects.




I used a variety of materials.  Reindeer moss, colored sand, a variety of rocks, glass containers and of course varying succulents.


This is my "Green on Green" display.


 Supplies used: vase, reindeer moss, green sand, succulent and rocks.


I love this one! The "Tree Display".

Supplies used: vase, colored sand (in 2 different colors), and a succulent. So simple.


I like the different heights of the succulents.

Supplies used: vase, colored sand, river rocks, colored stone, and 2 succulents.


"Simple but Lovely"


Supplies used: vase, colored sand, colored rocks (2 sizes), and a succulent.
