Moss Terrarium

I've seen a few photos of these terrariums around for a while now and thought since I have some time, and I've had the required materials lying around for a while.. that I would give one a go.

Supplies: 

• Glass jar or bowl - lid or no lid is fine
• Soil - We used a mixture of regular potting mix and vermiculite
• Moss - Im sure you can find yourself some moss.. we gathered ours from the local pine forrest
• Decorations

Step 1:

Clean out the jar/bowl and put at least an inch layer of soil in the bottom. The moss doesn't need much soil but you can use more to make it more visually appealing, try making your hills or mounds now.

Step 2:

Add moss and push down firmly, we used a spoon to 'tuck' the moss in around the edges. Lightly water until the soil is moist.

Step 3:

Add decorations.

Step 4:

The moss will begin adjusting to its new location and begin to liven up in about 3-4 weeks, water as the soil dries (with a lid this might only be once a month)
