Made these terrariums last night while watching Jersey Shore, the second season. Ugh. I know. I hate to admit it, but the hubs turned it on (he tivo’d it) and I got sucked in.

Anyhow, here are two terrariums I made as belated housewarming gifts.

I like how these turned out because…

  • I like the contrast between the white Mosser Lee pebbles and the dark soil versus the beige/orange rocks from my previous post.
  • I like the look of the slender glass containers than the round ones. Although only two succulents fit, it makes it look cleaner.

The two cute lil birds are from Michaels. I stuck a toothpick on the bottom of the bird and just pushed it through the rocks. I also added a tag at the bottom with care instructions and wrapped it around the vase with twine.

Hope my friends like it 🙂 I’m addicted to making these!

To piggyback on big sis’ post about not being able to “sit still”…this is what we did on a HOT Monday morning.

MAKE TERRARIUMS! Read more here.

 

My hands don’t know what to do with themselves. I don’t remember the last time I had all this time to myself…just to do NOTHING.

Well…it doesn’t last too long. I had started a list of all the things/projects I’d like to make once I have some free time and on the top of my list is a table runner. No sketches. No nothing. This time around, I’m just gonna do what comes natural. It may be a complete disaster but right now, I am happy to be doing something for me!

Another one on the list…well, it’s really lil sis’ list but I’m jumping on the bandwagon b/c I’d like to make one with her 🙂 A terrarium! Lil sis has been wanting to make some for awhile. And it wasn’t until we saw Chandra‘s terrariums at Renegade that motivated us to give it a try.

one of my purchases from Renegade:

hard to see…but those lil purple things are tiny birds! Love my terrarium!

While the kids spent the morning with the grandparents, I went grocery shopping. Super fun! But I did get to watch TV while I enjoyed my McDonald’s, bake mochi cake, do the dishes, and get dinner prepped. Is this what I can look forward to when the kids get dropped off at preschool?
