BonBon Moss Terrarium

I've been craving these for a while now. Hope they work!

I got the brass frame from Dapitan and instantly i know i will try to make a Terrarium.  I went to a glass store and asked them to put glass on it. Now its like a small greenhouse perfect for enclosed Terrarium. 



waking up this morning with mist on the sides of the glass..
 With a crate of live moss from Holland, pebbles, carbonated charcoal ( you can buy this in fish pet shop) sphagnum moss ( our local flakey looking moss) and potting soil. Just put it on layer, the pebbles for irrigation then the spagnum moss to hold the soil then the potting soil. Roughly 1/4 of your container are the living ground of your moss. Finally the live moss on top. Watering is just once a month.. coz evaporations keep the moss moist make sure its indirect sunlight too.. Just leave it alone garden!

You may add nice figurine.. a golf ball maybe for more whimsy look.. I might add some ferns and podocarpus soon when i hve time to visit Manila Seedling Bank.  For now i just want a touch of indoor garden in my room. 

A Smaller glass or bottle a nice favor too for wedding!
