our first terrarium…a compromise

The boy’s Star Wars Craft Book has a terrarium in it…a craft we all liked. I agreed to include Luke Skywalker and R2D2 and they agreed to include my “hooray” bunting. I’ve wanted to make some terrariums for a while, but I tend to kill everything. I scored several plants at the flea market for a steal and got a good lesson from the woman that grew them. I did exactly what she said in regards to planting them. There are so many terrarium tutorials online and they are all a bit different. We shall see what happens with ours.

Our crafting began with fighting over who goes first….his name means “brave, strong and hardy”….it fits him well.

We made one big terrarium and planted a few others randomly.

I changed up my hanging shelf and added one in place of the thermos that used to go there. The teal latte bowl is from Anthropologie.

My bunting is from Twirling Betty. She was a Craft Weekend sponsor and it was in the swag bag.

The next Craft Weekend is just a few weeks away…I get to go again and am SO EXCITED.

She traded her mismatched gloves for her wings…and she wore her pjs all day. One of those days.
