I read this post about terrariums this morning and left a comment about my black thumb with houseplants. She was kind enough to send me some words of encouragement. She told me to start with pretty weeds. What a fabulous idea! Weeds grow in the worst of conditions, I should be able to handle that! I grabbed a couple jars and cut quick circles of scrap fabric. I had short pieces of edging lace and ribbon, and after 5 minutes on the machine...Voila!!!!!
The tall jar is a little less crowded.
It is also perfect for holding a few pins in another room, instead of ugly little tomatoes lying around.
Now it's just a matter of watching them grow...hopefully!
