Black metal is used for creating the terrarium design. Various colors of glass can be purchased if desired. Simply buy black glass tiles that match the color of your terrarium and place them in the base and top of the base.

Place some rocks or clay pots in the bowls to give the plants a house, look and feel of soil. These terrarium plants are very easy to keep alive.
In addition to the plants, this unique terrarium also includes a small rustic metal wall art design. The art is a piece of artwork that includes tiny rocks, cactus, small trees, and a desert scene all contained in one large piece of art. There are also a small hook and loop attached to the wall that allows the artist to hang this on the wall.
This terrarium also includes a very attractive pair of lettuce plants. These are extremely easy to care for. A special feature of these plants is that they grow upside down like a cabbage.
