Botanical Terrarium
My friend had a ton of fake flowers and random leaf clippings that were going to go to the trash. Instead they went into my craft pile. After finishing a jar of candy the perfect moment hit to make a lovely mini Botanical Terrarium. This is something really easy to put together as a short afternoon craft project and the versatility of the combinations of the same ingredients is a lot of fun to play around with.
Supplies:
- Rocks collected from outside
- Fake Flowers (or real)
- A jar of your choosing
- Sand colored spray paint (optional)
- I did not have one, but a nice ribbon around the rim would tie everything off beautifully!
Step 1: Spray Paint for That Beachy Color
- Take your sand color spray paint and lightly spray paint the tops of the rocks collected.
- Spray paint the lid of the jar (top and bottom) and the bottom of the jar.
Step 2: Dry and Assemble
- Allow the rocks and jar to dry
- Make sure to have the jar bottom resting on top of the lid while it is drying
- This will allow the jar lid and bottom of the jar to stick together
- Make sure to have the jar bottom resting on top of the lid while it is drying
- Assemble the rocks inside of the jar to your pleasing
Step 3: Add Your Ingredients!
- Layer ingredients of your choosing inside the jar to create a lovely Botanical Terrarium!!
- Have fun with the combinations and make an afternoon of fun creating individual mini botanical terrariums with your friends and family :)
