As promised...

Fairy gardens!

My sister-in-law and my niece wanted fairy garden terrariums, so using the gorgeous glass jars I found at a garage sale coupled with the rocks and marbles and gravel I've been collecting, and some new little plants from Home Depot, I put together two pretty cute ones. The polka-dot plant I bought for them was quite big, so rather than chuck the leftover stems, I HAD to make a fairy garden for myself too.

I had a ball making these, except that I could really use some terrarium tools. Even jars that are large enough to get my hand in still present a problem when the plants are in, getting the decorations situated. It was somewhat of a challenge, but the results were better than expected.
