Terrarium Books

You know, there is just something about terrariums that brings out the human being in me. It satisfies several different things. There is a simple beauty to a terrarium and it is a bit of gardening. Yet there is something more. It also satisfies the urge to create in new and unexpected ways. A gardener has the joy of a garden but a terrarium maker has the joy of creating something that is just a little bit extra. I can't really put my finger on it but it is the design and selection of the cage or bottle and the creation of a theme.

And then you wrap this all up into a small package that is manageable; and you can keep it in the house. So instead of caring for hundreds of square feet ( which is of course, wonderful) you just have to care for a square foot or two. Dunno, there is just something wonderful about a terrarium.

If you are considering making terrariums here are some books available on Amazon.com. Terrarium making will open up a whole new world for you. It has for me.
