Easy ideas miniature gardens
Miniature garden or wall terrarium 
There are terrariums that also make a great decoration statement with style, for example, vertical terrariums. Here we tell you the materials you need and how to make a vertical terrarium step by step.
Materials
- Gravel
- Air and moss plants
- A small amount of earth and activated carbon
- Painter’s tape
- Acrylic
- Metal magnetic cans
- Spray paint
- Tool for cutting acrylic can be a Dremel
Step by Step
In case you want to paint the can, you must first cover the areas of the can that you do not want to paint with painter’s tape and then spray paint the exterior or interior. To paint using enamel type paint, water-resistant, so that it adheres well to the metal, in the color you prefer. In this example that we see below, only the inside of the can has been painted with a very elegant shade in opaque white.
While the paint dries you must cut the acrylic in a semicircle with the diameter of the can.
Then you must glue the acrylic with glue and then place the lid. You can secure by gluing the lid with the can so that the weight of the gravel does not uncover it. Then begin to place the gravel, soil, moss, and plants so that there is a nice terrarium.
If you want to avoid the part of cutting the acrylic and making a completely closed terrarium, you must get activated carbon to place inside the terrarium. You will find this at any pet store. Add plants that survive in closed environments.
