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)

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?
