Woodland Utopia Terrarium Kit

Remember when people used to make ships in bottles? This do-it-yourself terrarium operates on the same principle, but with magnificent results from living mosses in the unique growth environment of a beautiful vintage-look glass bottle! Intrigue and delight everyone on your gift list this year with a present that will spark their creativity, occupy them for many happy hours, and look lovely for years in their home or office!

In this kit you will find everything you need to create your glass bottle terrarium, including (of course!) the glass bottle, made from recycled glass and including a nice little glass stopper. The shape and thickness of the glass may remind you of antique medicine bottles -- a lovely accent for kitchen, dining room, and bath!

Woodland Utopia Kit also contains a selection of attractive stones, soil, living moss, and a tiny human figure to occupy this landscape! Most intriguing of all, it includes a long stick with which to manipulate all these items once they slide down the narrow neck of the bottle!

You will also find a Care Card enclosed with the kit, containing simple and clear instructions for assembling and caring for the terrarium. Interestingly, the focus group for this terrarium consisted of 8-year-olds, who could not only read and understand the Care Card, but who became seriously involved in building, maintaining, and enjoying their terrariums! So we know the younger set will love it. And it also makes a really thoughtful gift for a college student's dorm room, a busy cubicle dweller who needs a "green space" at work, or a friend who can no longer do as much outdoor gardening as she might like.

This terrarium kit is manufactured by a company specializing in gathering freshly harvested mosses and caring for them impeccably. With attention to the simple instructions, your terrarium can grow beautifully for years in your home. Treat someone special to this one-of-a-kind gift . . . and be sure to order one for yourself, too! Measurements: 7.25" H x 2" L x 4.9" W.
