Webisode: How To Make a Terrarium

Last holiday season, I was on the hunt for personal, creative and budget friendly gifts for my friends and family and my search was coming up short. My main squeeze Alex came up with a brilliant idea: let's make terrariums! But time was running out and we didn't really know what we were doing, so I hired Holly and Rebeccca of Hollyflora to make them for me. These plant and rock-filled worlds were a big hit and I've been gifting them ever since.

In today's webisode, my sweet friend Rebecca Uchtman ("Becks" to me) teaches us all about the process of putting together a terrarium and how to take care of it. Hope you enjoy this!

I have wanted to make a terrarium for quite sometime now, but I did not really know where to start. Thanks for sharing this! I am certainly going to raid my local garden store for good looking rocks.; July 10, 2012 at 4:02 AM
