MAKE IT CUTE

Plants have taken the room decor world by storm. Almost everyone's room has a little succulent or hanging plant stand. But, there is a new plant trend on the rise and it's terrariums! These little pots are filled with various plants and rocks that look like a mini garden. They add a great *earthy* vibe to your room and are super fun to take care of.

Before you buy your terrarium, there are a few things you should know first. There are two types of terrariums to pick from: open terrarium and closed terrarium. An open one means there is no top and a closed one has a top. We spoke with a professional gardener who explains that open terrariums typically include plants that prefer dryer conditions and lots of sunlight such as succulents. Whereas closed terrariums do not require a lot of sunlight and consist of plants that retain a lot of moisture such as moss. Think about your room and if your environment would be best for a closed or open terrarium. Once you've decided you are ready to pick out your terrarium! Check out these 5 places to buy one and spice up your room aesthetic.
