Let's Get Crafty! - DIY home decor!

Hey guys!

Today I’m gonna show you how to make your own terrariums!
Here’s what you’ll need:
  • ·         A glass jar
  • ·         Rocks/pebbles
  • ·         Dirt
  • ·         Plants (I used succulents)
  • ·         Decorative objects (optional)

So let’s get started!

The first step is to get a clean glass jar. You can use anything you like. I got mine, along with everything else, from Walmart. Next you’re going to cover the bottom of the jar with a layer of pebbles. You want to make sure to do this step because it’s going to act as a place for the water to drain so the soil doesn't get too wet and soggy.



Next, you are going to put a layer of dirt over the pebbles.
After, you’re going to take your plants out of the pot and plant them into your terrarium. This is the fun part because you can get as creative as you want! You want to make sure the plant is covered in as much dirt in the terrarium as it was in the original pot. 



After that you can add all sorts of decorative objects. And that’s it! This is a super fun and easy home decor DIY and can even be great presents!





I used succulents so if you use these types of plants, make sure to water them once a week!
Come back for more fun things!
