If you think your home could use a little more green, these simple terrarium ideas could be your simple solution!
Terrariums are small enclosures used to grow a plant or a plant-like organism (in this case, mushrooms). Many terrarium enthusiasts have a fascination with keeping plants alive in absence of foliage, and for many people, the mushroom terrarium is the quintessential terrarium.
The terrarium works best if the plant is submerged in water, and the design is such that it prevents sunlight from directly touching the plant.
Terrariums are very easy to make and are low-maintenance. Hence, they are perfect for those who don’t have a green thumb, or for those who simply don’t have time to tend to plants but still want some around them.
Elegant glass geometric terrarium is perfect for holding plants or other objects and can serve as a stylish and modern style centerpiece by itself.
This is also a great alternative for small spaces, rather than having big, space-consuming pots. You can place them on your worktable, or coffee table, or even hang them on walls to add life to your environment.
Their size makes them cute gifts or party favors as well! You could even wear them as a necklace 🙂
