🌿 DIY Terrarium: Create Your Own Urban Jungle

There's something special about making your own plant terrarium. It's creative, relaxing, and you end up with a beautiful piece of nature that will last for months or even years. In this blog post, we'll explain why a DIY terrarium kit is so much fun, how it works, and give you tips to get started.

✨ Why a DIY Terrarium?

A terrarium is much more than just a decorative piece. It's a self-sufficient mini-ecosystem that's largely self-sustaining. Watering is often only necessary a few times a year – nature takes care of the rest.

  • No green fingers needed: even beginners can do this!
  • Relaxing: away from screens for a while, and enjoy working with your hands.
  • Creative project: choose how you decorate your mini-jungle.
  • Sustainable: a terrarium stays beautiful much longer than a bunch of flowers.
  • Original gift: fun to give and receive.

🛠 What's in a DIY Kit?

Our DIY terrarium kits include everything you need to build your own mini-ecosystem. Think:

  • A glass terrarium with cork or LED cork
  • Terrarium plants such as Fittonia, Fern or even a small Ficus Ginseng
  • Fresh ball mosses
  • Hydro grains, activated carbon and potting soil
  • A clear 5-step plan and care tips

In short: all you have to do is roll up your sleeves and enjoy!

🌱 How to make a terrarium? (step-by-step in short)

  1. Laying the foundation – Start with hydro grains for drainage.
  2. Protect – Add activated carbon to keep the soil healthy.
  3. Add soil – Fill with terrarium potting soil.
  4. Placing Plants – Put your plants and moss in their place.
  5. Styling – Finish with decorations or extra moss for a playful effect.

And voilà: your very own mini-jungle in glass is born.

🎁 A DIY terrarium as a gift

Looking for a unique gift? A DIY terrarium kit is perfect for a birthday, housewarming, or as a thank-you. It's personal, sustainable, and fun to make together. Plus, unlike a bouquet of flowers, the gift will stay beautiful for years to come.

💡 Tips for success

  • Place your terrarium in a bright spot, but not in direct sunlight.
  • Open your terrarium occasionally (for example, once a month for a few hours) to let the ecosystem breathe.
  • Use the care tips from the package – simple and effective.
