Creative Terrarium Containers

Terrarium container suggestions. Here are a wide variety of containers you might want to use for making a terrarium. The thing about terrarium containers is that once you start thinking about them you will see ideas just about everywhere. And the supermarket is a great place to shop for unique shapes and sizes. And, I have a whole lot of projects that use very creative containers.

Apothecary Jar Terrariums These Jars make stylish and very attractive terrariums and they are small enough for a beginner with a large mouth for easy access. A web visitor has submitted these pics of apothecary jar terrariums learn more here

Here is another great project submitted by a web visitor and based on my lightbulb tutorial. It is a desert themed terrarium inside a lightbulb. See a larger picture and get some tips on how to do this here: The desert themed lightbulb terrarium

The Upside Down Terrarium This is a unique little terraium that looks great. It took a few different techniques before I figure out how to do this right without having soil alll over the sides of the glass. learn more here

A Conch Shell Terrarium

A Conch Shell Terrarium - This is another relatively easy project to do and it very much hits the mark that I always talk about. Using creative containers to make a beatiful and unique terrarium. All you need a shell and a couple of plants - The Conch Shell Terrarium

Tuscan Glass Dome Bell Jar Cloche Terrarium with Terra Cotta Base This beautiful Tuscan bell jar cloche terrarium will inspire you to add many fresh and seasonal items. The aged white terra cotta base holds the bell in place as well as give it a Tuscan accent that will complement any décor. You can add real or silk items and make it look different for any occasion or even display keepsakes that make a statement. The glass bell and base is going to transform your table, indoors or outdoors, to a thing of beauty. It is a great way to shelter tender plants from pests and weather and as a terrarium it makes for a lovely way to grown those beautiful plants with ease. Each bell is a little different from the other and slight bubbles and markings are common because of the glass molding process. Size is: overall size 14.5 inches tall x 10.25 inches. The base is 10.25 inches in diameter and the bell is 8 inches in diameter and 10 inches high plus 2 inches for the knob at the top of the bell

Glass Dome Bell Jar Cloche Terrarium with Scalloped Base The top of the bell has aged white terracotta to match the base. It is unique and lovely. The aged white scalloped terra cotta base holds the bell in place as well as give it a deep pocket in which to add plants that will show off your creativity and complement any décor.

A Note from Will: Wine glasses can be used to make beautful terrariums. And they are not too hard to make. You can give them away as presents. I have a tutorial on how to make them here: How to make a wine glass terrarium

Riedel Vinum Cognac Glass, Set of 2 For me the Cognac Glass or Brandy Snifter is perfect for a small wine glass style terrarium. They tend to be shorter, squatter and a little bit more durable. You just have to watch the sizes. They can range from 8 ounces to 30. This one shown here is almost 30 ounces.

5 Gallon Glass Carboy If you are looking for a big and challenging terrarium container I recommend a 5 gallon glass carboy. This is what brewers use to make wine or beer in. It is very similiar to what you get when you order water for your home cooler. Can look really beautiful and can be quite challenging because you have to get the plants and seeds through the narrow mouth at the top.

Fish Bowls are also very suitable for a terrarium container

Anchor Hocking 1/2 Gallon Round Fish Bowl/ Terrarium, Pack of 4

Classic Fish Bowl Looking for something that looks good and is easy to use for a terrarium? This classic fish bowl is perfect and inexpensive. Available at Amazon.com

Wardian Cases - These are terrarium containers that are made of wrought iron and sheets of glass. Think of them as three dimensional stained glass objects. The glass is clear for the benefit of the plants of course! If you like this style of container I have a whole selection of them here Wardian Cases

This English Conservatory is a good example of a Wardian Case.

English Consevatory Bonsai Terrarium with Live Plants - Designed after the English Conservatories, ths tabletop Wardian Case has the detailing that not only makes it look great, but is also fully functional. Decorate with a seasonal theme for an ever-changing look or with living plants.
