Quoting:I'm wondering if this is worth continued effort.


good point...I've been wondering that, myself...:0)

well I know I can keep it looking great in the greenhouse during that half of the year, but the other half it is taken down, and If I wanted to make the room to put up a large aquarium, I'd probably rather have fish in it, lol...

So far it is still looking nice, and I think the soaked moss might actually be working. I didn't do that intentionally(I had just bought that hanging basket and wanted to plant it) , but I think it may be a happy accident :0)

As for a baggie, have you checked the thrift stores in your area for inexpensive glassware? I went the other day and picked up a half dozen of different glass containers that I intend to use for the pups. Many of them are small pretty apothecary jars with lids

Maybe you'd think it worth more the effort if it looked pretty in a pretty glass apothecary or decorative glass container?

This one is small but perfect size for a pup...only $1.50 at the thrift store. I don't mind keeping them in glass when they are small, but just don't have space for huge glass containers :0)
