Terrarium Revival

If you’re like me, you’ve always secretly longed for one of those vintage Tiara Casa Terrariums from the 60′s.  There’s a company called Do Plastic that is selling them on ebay and on their website retroterrariums.com.  They don’t have the light at the top like the vintage ones did , so I’m on the fence.  Priced at $150, I think there should be a light, but that’s just me.  You could always add your own-it’s still a groovy place to start your seeds indoors or have a year round garden. They should encourage customers to send in photos too since styling product photos is not their forte.  Despite my moaning-I still love them.

    I love that you can use pretty much any clear vessel, go to a nursery or garden center and create your own window on nature!

    I have wanted one of these ever since I was a little girl. My aunt had one in her home and had cacti in it. And just when I desided to give up on them, I found one at a yard sale for $2.00.!!!! That’s right just 2 bucks! So you know I had to buy it..lol.. now to deside what to plant in it..

    I was recently searching online for info on what the heck the dome thing was I found in my grandmas attic. Well…..it was a piece to this terrarium. Sad news is the white stand is nowhere to be found.
