My story....

​

My passion for terrariums began with a large brandy snifter that was my Great Grandma Garnett’s.  She had a green thumb of which I have many memories.  I wanted to do something special with her glass container & decided it would be fitting to add plants.  I added a small cottage figurine to the scene, a fence & a pathway leading to the cottage.  I used Peperomia, Maidenhair Fern & Pink Polka Dot plants to complete the scene.  I felt my miniature creation was a success & I’d found a new passion.  I began a quest at more greenhouses & nurseries for a variety of miniature plants.  I became obsessed with buying glass containers at thrift shops & antique stores.  Small, medium or large it didn’t matter.  The more unusual the better!  I visited hobby stores to buy various figurines & decorative additions for more terrariums.  I hunted for sticks, acorns, rocks & other accents at the family farm.    It kicked off a whole new era for me & I’ve now made so many terrariums I have run out of room in my home.  A number of people suggested I begin selling them due to their uniqueness (especially my husband since they’ve taken over our home)!
