♥ just a little green, like the color when the spring is born.

terrariums by artist, paula hayes.

my friend just got back from a trip to ireland and of course

i asked her the typical questions like, "was it so green there?"

but then i stopped myself and wondered why it is that we would

choose to live somewhere that was so not green?

similarly, when i was in el salvador, i found myself marvelling at the

natural beauty and the lush surroundings that i found myself in.

everywhere i turned an even more beautiful photo opportunity presented itself.

flowers blossomed in every possible color, trees laughed with shaking leaves,

and life affirmed itself with each new bloom.

since i will probably not be leaving the city any time soon,

it may be time to add a little green to my apartment

in the form of a tiny terrarium.

here are some of my favorites:

pear terrarium.

recycled glass bubble terrarium

neoteric no. 12

irish landscape with wee wool sheep.

roost copenhagen terrariums.

gothic style h.potter terrariums.

ps. i am kinda obsessed with these terrarium inspired accesories

from woodland belle on etsy. they are like spring in a jar.
