Next-Level Terrarium 🌿 Floating and Self-Watering
Next-Level Terrarium 🌿 Floating Design + Self-Watering Trick
Ever seen a terrarium that looks like it’s floating? 🌿✨
In this video, I’ll show you how I built a unique floating-style terrarium scape using a natural loofah mounted on suction cups with anodized aluminium wire. The setup features driftwood, lush moss, and terrarium compatible plants, all designed to stay healthy with a self-hydrating wicking system. The moss-covered wicking tape continuously pulls water from the tank below, keeping the entire scape fresh and green.
This DIY floating terrarium is not only low-maintenance but also looks like a piece of living art – perfect for your desk or home décor.
In this video, you’ll learn:
How to create a floating terrarium using simple materials.
How to design with driftwood, moss, and plants.
How to build a self-watering (wicking) system.
