Easy DIY Terrarium

As we accustom our readers, here we try to reveal secrets and ideas about a great variety of things. DIY projects are an important part of our uninterrupted quest for answers. Lets now take a look at a very simple project with simple tools and materials. You can create a planter from almost anything, as this example over here proves it. To do this on your own you will need: a glass container, some gravel, dirt, twigs and some little plants to grow there.

First, put the gravel at the bottom of the recipient about a half a centimeter thick, then get some dirt from another plants or from the garden if you have one and press it until it mimics the earth density and texture. Then to cover the top of the cup, get some moss, clear all the dirt and put in water until little new roots appear. Fit a small plant in the ensemble and make sure that its roots pass the moss  and touch the soil.

If placed in the moss the plant will not get the necessary minerals to survive, so make sure that the plant is well place into the cup’s soil. To animate your sculpture find a figurine and place it among the semi-natural environment. The project is great for people who don’t have a lot of space or have allergies. The possibilities are endless, as well as the recipients and plants used.{found on collegelifediy}.
