For my birthday this year, my sister got me a terrarium.

Now, I’ve never been much of a green thumb, in fact I’ve managed to kill 2 cacti given to me in my short life time, so I’m not sure why she gave it to me, but I loved it. The great thing about terrariums is that you can keep them anywhere; like your living room or bedroom or wherever needs a bit of life in you house. I think that makes it a bit easier to remember to water it.

Anyway, I thought they were a great gift idea (especially house warming) but I had no clue where I could get one. Then it occurred to me that I could just make one! Here’s a great tutorial I found but there are heaps online. I haven’t gotten to it yet but I’ve done a lot of research and I’d like to share some ideas I’ve found on my new favorite website, Pinterest. Also I wanted to show off my terrarium so there’s a few pictures of that too. My sister got it in Melbourne so if you’re heading down that way, you should bring one home.
