Terrariums

My new love! For me terrariums are a great addition to interiors where you want not only a conversation piece but also a fresh hit of long lasting greenery. With terrariums the possibilities are endless, just google it and you will see! They seem to be a bit of a retro thing from the 70's. But of course they actually go way back to Victorian times.

The terrarium below is a desert scape in which I used white gravel and a single tillandsia. Also known as an air plant.



I am the type of person who is always picking stuff up outside and shoving it in my pocket for no other reason than I love it's shape, color or texture. And now I am finally putting to good use all my pieces of bark, driftwood and stones! Love it!
