I have moved these around the house 5 times already because I want them in every room! It brings in a splash of plant life in a decorative way. Read on for the easy how-to for these DIY terrariums that come out to only about $7 each!
Supplies:
- Glass canisters with lids (found the most affordable ones at Hobby Lobby for %50 off)
- Mini succulents or cactus plants (ones that don’t require much water)
- Small sized pebbles – white or earth tones (Found these at Hobby Lobby)
Instructions:
- Remove the cork or wood lid from canister which you can set terrariums on like a stand.
- Insert your small plant with soil still attached (you only need enough soil to cover roots) in the bottom of your canister.
- Surround the plant with handfuls of pebbles.
That’s it! If you make a whole set they come out to about $4-$7 each. Three packs of pebbles was all we needed to fill these. Depending on the plant you will probably only need to add a little water once a week. The cactus could go about a month without! There are several ways you could use a set of terrariums. Wedding table centerpieces, dining table centerpieces, outdoor spaces, shelf styling, etc. OR use them as gifts! Let me know if you give these a try, would love to see how they turn out!
