Spring Terrarium

Miss E was up extra early today and the hubs

is off to Asheville to help at a wedding, so we

got started with the birds this morning.

I thought it would be the perfect day to try to

make a dent in my projects to-do list.

So off to Home Depot we went to get our supplies

to make our very own terrarium. I got the idea from

Stephanie at Under the Table and Dreaming.

I'm not sure I got the right plants for this sort of

thing, but I really like how it turned out. Even

though mine is small, I think it adds a little

something to my sparse mantle. (We're keeping it

simple because our house is currently for sale.)

So, what do you think?

I added the ribbon and fabric flower to give

it a special decorative touch, which turned out

just the way I hoped it would.

**Did I mention my thumb isn't

even a SHADE of green?**

Lots more projects to think about, but while

Emma's napping I'm going to clean up a bit

and rest up. We've got a 2-year old party

to go to later and I think I'll need my energy.

Have a happy Saturday!
