I have this HUGE terrarium container from ages ago. It is sitting on a shelf
in the Shop. I have often wanted to get it out and make a new Terrarium.
It is about 16" in diam., round with a top. The whole thing looks like a
gigantic Hershey's Kiss. Can you visualize it?

It is a pale smoky in color. Still has all the soil and charcoal and something in it.

Let me sneak down there and snap a picture. it won't be a good one--
as I am not lifting it off the shelf....Hey! Found something else there to show you too.

Holly--do they still sell any 3L wine jugs in the teardrop shape?
Perhaps the "Lake Country White or Red Wines"??? Brand???? Taylor??

I used to cut them in half (I have a glass cutting kit) and make small terrariums
out of them and sold some at our Estonian X-Mas bazaar.
I added some macrame (AHA! must have been the 70's--early 80's?) trim around it
and the "plant" in it was those treated, green (stained your fingers) "ferns" that
you could get back then in all kindss of stores..
Supposedly--they were some kind of a sea grass--and they dyed it green....

A nice AV would look good in there....or that little fern at Aldi's?

Might give some of you some ideas --Yes??

1--The big bowl
2&3--the Wine Jug terrariums...
4&5--better pictures of my Cobra Plant..
