Create an indoor planter with these succulent display ideas.

I have been a fan of succulents for a while, I have seen so many beautiful collections of these pretty little plants, it was time to make a terrarium of my own.
Shopping at Home Depot this week I walked past the succulent display that I have passed so many times, and finally bought a couple of plants. I brought them home knowing I could plant them in just about anything. Here is the Simple Succulent Terrarium I put together.

I drew from the abundance of inspiration put together by some of my favorite bloggers, you can see all that inspiration below.
I looked around for a planter and decided on this vase for my succulent display. I’ve had it, with stones in it, in my bedroom for close to 2 years. It wasn’t doing much up there and needed some new life.

To plant the succulent I layered stone at the bottom of the vase for drainage, then soil in which I planted the succulent. Finally, I layered more pebbles on top.
These dessert plants don’t need much water or care but there are some rules to follow with these indoor succulent display ideas.
Be sure to add some drainage to whatever vessel you are using. The soil should be prepared specifically for your plant, check with an employee at the garden center of your choice to be sure.
Give your display indirect sunlight and a little water once a month and it will grow and thrive.

These require very little water which is great for me because I often forget to water my house plants. I am loving how this looks in my living room
