DIY Mini Winter Wonderland
Though we here in Australia aren’t going to get a white Christmas, why not make a festive one for your home? White Christmas decorations are the easiest way to bring a touch of the Northern Hemisphere to your home, even when it’s 40 degrees outside!
This terrarium is a festive and fun twist on traditional Christmas decorations. It’s quick, easy and is guaranteed to be a talking point for any guests over the silly season.
- A large glass vase or pot (we used a tall thin one, but anything with a wide enough base is fine!)
- White vase and candle sand decoration (We used this one!)
- Three small Christmas trees
- A reindeer or creature of choice
- 1 bag of natural preserved moss
Step 1: Place some of the moss in the base of your glass vase. We used enough to fill roughly 1 -2 inches, which looked best for the dimensions of our jar.
Step 2: Add some of the sand decoration as snow, being careful not to use too much – you want to be able to see the moss underneath. We sprinkled most of it for an even finish.
Step 3: Place your reindeer or creature into the display.
Step 4: Stand your small Christmas trees in the back. Ours nestled into the moss and stood easily, but this may require a bit of adjustment!
Step 5: If your glass container has a lid, place it on top to complete your mini winter wonderland.
Voila! Now you have a festive nod to a white christmas and a gorgeous terrarium that can be changed throughout the year for any occasion.
