Beeper and I put together some terrariums this weekend. He was in charge of gravel, spanish moss and dirt layering, and I was in charge of planting. Then Beeper put the finishing touches in place--the little plastic dinosaurs we picked up in the dollar section of Target.

This was actually an idea I picked up from the
Two Straight Lines blog (original post
here).

Then I also did a bit more research on terrarium construction and found this
link and this
link most helpful in terms of terrarium 101 sort of instruction. Also, Martha Stewart has a little succulent terrarium overview
here.

Beeper loves the terrariums---we even made a desert terrarium he will bring to his pre-school to share with his classroom.
I'm digging the results. The little dinos in there really do make me smile everytime I pass them. Welcome home, T-Rex.
