Talk about fulfilling. Everyone succeeds at a terrarium workshop. This is a rewarding make-and-take where you bring home your own small world. Or come to a lecture and see a terrarium-making demonstration so you can do the dirty work at home.

Almost any type of houseplant can be used for your terrarium. Generally you want them to be hardy and small. Slow growing plants are also desirable so the terrarium doesn’t quickly outgrow itself.Terrarium
Love having you on the blog. But I disagree on what works in a terrarium plantswise. If you put a plant that can’t tolerate high humidity into a closed terrarium, it will turn to mush. Check out my upcoming blog on terrarium-worthy plants (The Little League).
