I stumbled across this perfectly aged light fixture at the Habitat for Humanity Restore and I immediately knew what I wanted to use it for. A terrarium for my succulent clippings.
First I cleaned it up and removed the post and other fittings.
Then I added electrical tape to the holes on the base so that the moss wouldn't make a mess.
Then I added a layer of moss and clipped some succulent buds to place on top.
The exciting part is that these clipped buds will last for upwards of 5 months without soil or water. You don't have to do anything except admire them.
Do you want to see the finished product??
