Custom DIY Terrarium Kit – Build Your Own Way
Your terrarium, your way. Let me help you bring it to life!
Have a beautiful glass container sitting at home that you've always wanted to turn into a little tropical forest? Perhaps you already have some plants and moss, but aren't quite sure what layers or materials you need to get started.
Or maybe you'd love to build your own terrarium from scratch but can't find exactly what you're looking for in our ready-to-order DIY kits.
That's where this custom option comes in!
At Living Art, I can help you put together a personalised DIY terrarium kit containing exactly what you need, whether that's just a few missing materials or absolutely everything to create your own miniature ecosystem.
What Can I Help You With?
Depending on what you already have, I can supply:
Terrarium building layers only – Perfect if you already have your own glass container, moss, and plants.
Glass and building layers – Choose a suitable glass container and receive the essential layers needed to build your ecosystem.
Plants and moss – Add miniature orchids, tropical plants, ferns, ground covers, or beautiful living moss to your own build.
A complete DIY terrarium kit – Glass, building layers, plants, moss, natural decorative elements, and instructions.
Building tools and accessories – Such as a plant mister and other useful tools to help with planting and maintenance.
Extra decorative materials – Pebbles, bark, wood, stones, and other little details to give your miniature landscape its own character.
You don't need to buy everything. I'll help you fill in the gaps!
Carefully Prepared Building Layers
Depending on your terrarium design, your custom kit may include materials such as:
Washed drainage rocks and clay pebbles
Mesh separation layers
Sphagnum moss
Decorative crushed rock
Washed sand
Premium terrarium growing mix
Activated charcoal
Bark chips and natural finishing materials
All necessary layers are carefully measured for your glass container, packed separately, and labelled to make the building process as easy as possible.
Let's Create Something Special
Once you've contacted me, we'll chat about what you'd like to build, what materials you already have, and what you'd still like me to supply.
I'll help you choose suitable materials and plants for your terrarium and put together a personalised quote.
Whether you're building your very first terrarium or experimenting with something a little more adventurous, I'd love to help you create your own little piece of nature.
What's Included?
Your custom kit will depend entirely on your requirements, but any complete DIY kit will include a step-by-step building guide and a general terrarium care guide to help you establish and maintain your new ecosystem.
