Terrarium Making FAQs

What is a terrarium?

A terrarium is a glass container that's designed to display indoor plants and sometimes even small critters. Also known as glass gardens or vivariums, terrariums can be used for decoration, scientific observation or plant propagation.


What do I need to make a terrarium?

To create a decorative terrarium, you only need a minimum amount of supplies. Here's a quick snapshot of all your DIY terrarium making essentials:

  • Glass container, jar or vessel: Your terrarium jar or terrarium bottle will hold the soil, stones, and your chosen plants and decorations inside. Choose a glass terrarium vessel with a wide opening to make it easy to arrange and care for your terrarium.
  • Different stones and pebbles: Small assorted rocks or shells add decoration to your terrarium, as well as providing drainage if you choose to fill your terrarium with fresh plants or moss.
  • Fresh or artificial plants: If you want a low-maintenance terrarium with all the vibrancy of natural plants, choose artificial moss or small faux plants to fill your glass terrarium jar. If you're looking to grow fresh plants in your terrarium, make sure you also grab some quality potting soil.

What to put in a terrarium?

Once you have decided on the perfect terrarium container, you can choose to fill it with just about anything you choose! While terrariums are traditionally filled with small plants and flowers, you can opt for artificial floristry and greenery for a low-maintenance option. Decorative pebbles, stones, moss-covered rocks and tiny figurines can all help to create themed designs to match your interior decor - explore Spotlight's range of craft flowers & critters for some magical inspiration.


Where to place terrariums in my home?

The beauty of a terrarium is that they're super compact and easily transportable. Place your DIY terrarium creations on sideboards, mantelpieces, and planter tables around the home to add a natural accent to any space.
