Oh, building terrariums has been so much fun for me. Looking at the new leaves growing with signs of stabilisng life is exhilarating!

However, just seeing the greens may be a little bit dull for cute bottled terrarium like these, and right now I haven't saved up enough for springtails, which I may need to have them soon since I started detecting molds to regulate the ecosystem better, I started looking out for decorations that could actually last in terrariums.

Previously, I got a few that were styrofoam style, however the seller mentioned that I cannot use for consealed terrariums because they are not waterproof.

Thinking that I could just spray a coat of water proof transparent paint could work, in the end, the humidity invited moulding instead! So right now I may have to eventually start to move replant my pilot terrarium to a new bottle so that it has a better chance of surviving before the mould eat it up entirely.

So I started to look around from one online shop to another, including big plant nurseries while looking for succulents (that's anotehr story to tell); until I landed with these super cute resin designs. Many of the other shops do sell them, however they were mostly too big for my tiny #junk2glory bottles that doesn't have a lot of space.

What do you think? They do look cute right?

This is just the beginning for more future adventures for junk2glory! Hopefully later when I have figured out how to gather my thoughts well enough to present a business plan / proposal on #hive , it will be a project worth supporting, of course by then, I will need to persevere.
