It's been a little bit and there are reasons for that. Reason #1: work. Reason #2: lazy. Reason #3: lack of inspiration. But now I'm back and ready to share my projects with you! Yay!
About a month ago, I became obsessed with terrariums. I always saw them on craftgawker, but didn't seem to interest me enough. THEN, I visited a young lady's blog from the Columbus vicinity, which I met at an alternative craft show downtown in Decmeber '11. She and her husband had gone to a terrarium making class at a flower shop. She posted pictures of her terrarium with a cute, mini, porcelain polar bear figurine placed in the center of the greenery. I think they even named it "terrarium polarium!" I LOVED it. It was so simple and beautiful in a round glass bowl. I was dead set on adding these earthy creations to my list of must-do projects!
My aunts just recently went on vacation to Asheville, North Carolina, and I couldn't believe it, but they brought me back moss and a few pretty rocks for my to-be terrarium! They went out and dug it all up with a spoon! I really couldn't believe it! It was one of the best surprises...the kind you would never expect! They also brought me back a mini terrarium from a stand full of terrariums made by a young couple. SO! With all of this being said, I'm makin' me a terrarium tomorrow after I purchase a few necessities needed. Look out for my next post to see how everything turns out!
