Making a Terrairum

Being an apartment dweller these days,

I decided I needed a little terrarium to brighten up my place.

It was quite easy to put together.

First I found a glass jar with a lid.

I layered the bottom with sand and then big rocks.

This photo should have been first, I don't know why blogger

rearranges my pictures.  I guess it thinks it knows best.  Ha!

Here are my supplies gathered from the beach

and the local greenhouse.

So back to the layering.

Sand, rocks, shells, sea glass . . .

Potting Soil . . . 

I love the look of the shells and sea glass in there.

I had a big bowl of sea glass from all my gatherings 

at different beaches around the world.

My BIL will laugh at this, but the glass is being put to good use now.

Little plants and ferns and succulents added in.

And a couple of shells in the midst.

The kid thinks is needs a tiny gnome.

I think I agree, will need to hunt one done.

So here is my little peace of heaven.

Life.

Be grateful.
