If you've been wondering why I've been hording glass containers and walking around covered in dirt for the past month, this is why...
I've been planting up specimens for my terrarium tutorial on dominomag.com. There ya go, mystery solved!
My gosh I love making these things. They're quick, easy, cheap, low maintenance, sweet, interesting; all things I never knew could coexist together. Please head on over and let me know what you think!
And here's a big thank you, thank you, thank you to the wonderful Cathy Halley for taking a chance on a young whippersnapper like me!

Wow, how exciting! Great tutorial too.
ReplyDeleteSOOOOOOOOOO PROUD!!!!!!!! YAY YOU!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what planted the idea of terrariums in your little head, but I can remember your obsession starting in elementary school. Look how far you've come... all official and published, but still covered in dirt!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I used to make these back when I lived in Zimbabwe! They're so much fun! You are awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteUnisex? But do they come in my size?
ReplyDeleteLove them all clustered together.
My darling!! I am so proud of you but more so encouraged and inspired! You are an emblem for doing what one loves. In passion there is success!
ReplyDeleteI am so looking forward to a little jaunt with you so soon. XOX
Congrats! These are really lovely, and I've been scratching my head about how to create one... so glad I found you!
ReplyDeleteThey would make sweet little living presents for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteHey whippersnapper...
"My love for you grows and GROWS!"

ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to make one of these for ages - thanks for the tips!!!

ReplyDeleteSo amazing - you did a great job!!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to add my thanks and also a very clueless question about charcoal. I see on the photo that they are quite small, is this something I can get at a garden supply store?
ReplyDeleteHi Abby, I'm so happy you're interested in making some! I buy my charcoal at a pet supply store in the aquarium section. It's sometimes called activated carbon, too. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteDomino!! That's so fantastic.
ReplyDeleteLove the tutorial. I'll be putting one together for my sister in SF. It's a perfect gift.
thank you for sharing your tutorial! They are just lovely as all get up. I just found and old glass oil jar that I want to fill up. =)
ReplyDeletewhere did you find those larger jars? i'm looking to make some of these as set pieces, and am lost on where to find some great, inexpensive glass jars.
ReplyDeleteI love them! Now that domino is down, I can't get to the tutorial.. do you have another link to it? I just found two cheese plates at the salvation army that will be perfect for terrariums, but I'm not sure where to start.
