]]>• A glass jar or bowl
• Activated charcoal
• Small stones and pebbles
• Little plants
• Potting soil
• Gardening tools
• Any decorative items you want to include
Clean out the bowl or jar and cover the bottom with a 1 ½ inch-thick layer of small stones or pebbles (this can be increased for a taller vessel). This will act as drainage for your terrarium.
Add a very thin layer of activated charcoal to keep the water fresh and fight off any bacterial growth in your glass garden.
Add a layer of potting soil deep enough for your plants to root into it. Around 2-2 ½ inches should do the trick.
Start by planting your largest plant first. Remove the plant from its container and prune the roots before making a hole in the soil large enough for the plant’s roots to fit. Nestle the plant into the soil and repeat the process with your other plants. It’s easiest to work your way from the back to the front of your terrarium.
Once your plants are sitting happy, add a final layer of pebbles and any decorative items you’d like to include. Place the completed terrarium in an area with bright, indirect sunlight, and lightly water the base every two weeks.

]]>One of the most popular DIY terrarium tutorials was shared by JENerationDIY, who’s followed by over 2.5 million DIY lovers on YouTube. Her clip was inspired by Magical Thinking Geo Terrarium from Urban Outfitters, which is currently out of stock.
Jennifer’s terrarium is a pretty good copy, but it utilizes much lighter and cheaper materials. For starter, instead of making a glass terrarium, she used a strong plastic sheet. She also used glue and plastic straws— preferably gold ones so you wouldn’t have to spray paint them.
Jennifer shared the measurements in her tutorial, showed us how to crack the pieces, and put them all together. She recommends using this DIY terrarium as decoration or organization container since it’s not the real thing. If you’re more advanced in DIY, you can replace plastic with glass and try to make it look more authentic.

]]>The important thing is that you pick a glass container. Shape doesn’t matter, so you can get creative here. You’ll have to decide between a closed and open terrarium depending on the plants you want to keep.
You want to add three layers of soil in the container. The bottom should be covered with a layer of pebbles or stones. Then add a thin layer of activated charcoal and cover it with potting soil.
This is probably the most fun part. For open terrariums, you can choose plants like succulents, aloe and cacti. Closed ones, on the other hand, need plants that can tolerate humid conditions like ferns, ivy and thyme.
This is when your imagination plays a crucial role. You can add all sorts of decorative stones, shells or mini figurines. After you are done with this, the only thing your mini garden needs is proper care!
