DIY: Terrarium Garden

Absolutely head over heels for this new trend! 

Lately I've been seeing these around, a recurring trend I've been wanting to recreate with a friendlier price tag. Something about using a terrarium as a planter seems really contemporary; the simplicity and minimalist style included. 

So after finding these absolute bargains - initially the hexagonal terrarium, I decided simply after a glance at the price tag, that I would purchase it. Having no idea for a purpose suited for the glassware, I chose to buy it for its aesthetic value. The bigger terrarium features multiple succulents, place of purchase ranging from Flourish (Manchester), B&Q (Manchester Fort) and Ikea (Ashton-Under-Lyne)

For ideas on potting and re-potting succulents and cactus, check out Christine Kobzeff. 

Large terrarium - TKMaxx, (no longer available) £12.99

Admittedly, the terrariums featured above are much pricier than the ones I purchased, however, there are much, much more variety in terms of metal and colour. But just to be sure, pop in to Tk Maxx or Homesense first for a better deal.

Alternatively, it could be a potential DIY?
