Equil, I had to look up what a wardian case was. so that's what those are called! I love them, but I had a cheap moment and instead of getting a wardian case proper, I went to the nearest TJ Maxx and bought a lantern, big enough to fit a couple of little plants.

Critter's suggestions are right on target. But I will add the following: IMO, you have to be disciplined about watering/misting. Because I am not, it makes me a horrible houseplant mommie. The poor sinningias, gesneriads and ficus that I initially placed died horrible deaths due to no moisture. So I started using any small succulent that doesn't need as much water and placed my little case near a bright window. This works way better for me but I already killed one little barrel cacti...

If you are good about watering/misting, her suggestions are absolutely perfect.
