Well done! Every few years, one or the other of my daughters decides this is what she wants to do as a project - now we won't have to keep Googling the information. Do you ever put in ponds and wildlife?

Thank you all!!

It was such a fun project and I just had to share how easy it really is. I have never tried to incorporate ponds and wildlife though...maybe someday.

Great article Lee Anne! I envision a boom in the terrarium trade during the next few weeks of cold weather.

Great idea, I have use mine to to root my spider plants,and otherstarts I get off plants,I keep them in water till the roots are ready to plant,then pot them and keep them there till they are bigger and strong.Works like a charm,and I don't have to worry about my 4 cats chewing on them,you can really start anything in them I suppose,I need to get on my kitty greens,the cats are better when they have those to chew on.

Lee Ann, I'm hooked. Especially on a cooooold day like today when a new "garden project" that can be done indoors really appeals. . . I'm off to our local pet store to check out supplies, etc. And I can really put in any little tiny statues that I want to?
Thank you!!
