Little glass worlds
Terrariums by mooshoopork on Etsy
I’ve noticed a trend on Etsy lately towards filling every piece of unwanted glassware with moss, sticking a lid on it, and letting it grow. I for one, am a massive fan of this move and would love to have a shelf filled with charming vintage glass bottles and jars, each growing its own little garden. It’s not just crafty etsians who are at it either, there’s plenty of gorgeous and fairly high end options too. I love these hanging bubbles in Pigment. (via Oh Joy!)
There’s also quite a few kits on offer over at Etsy (See here, here and here!) and this all got me thinking… how much mess could it possibly create if 20 girls were to plant one of these each, whilst supping a few glasses of a nice wine… Surely not enough to rule it out of a future Finishing School! Perhaps I’ll start collecting glass containers now….
Yes, great idea! That would be fun!
do it! i made my own little moss pot garden…..erm…..it died
Thanks guy! It’s definitely one for the list, I think. Rooting round our kitchen last night I found 3 little sweets jars just waiting to be made pretty…
