Plan ahead & visualise what you’d like in your terrariums, you can start planting seeds & add little elements which cost near nothing.

No matter what you choose to give, give it in style with packaging that is slick, contemporary & stylish. Eco friendly is the way to go, so choose cloth/newspaper bags with jute/fibre/cotton handles & lined with hay/cloth or up cycled or recycled materials like egg trays for a beautiful & unique touch to your wedding gift.

Think different, think out of the box, think creative & create something that will be as unique as you.
