I looked and looked for the perfect container to use for a terrarium for my six year old granddaughter's birthday. I wanted it to be magical and sturdy and clear with a lid. This container is perfect! It's small...about 8 inches wide and had the cutest palace to p lid so it doesn't easily spill. We made it together. We used the gravel that came with it, covered that with fairy moss and decorated it with it with a tiny succulent in a tree trunk flower pot. We put a butterfly pick inside and a mushroom salt shaker with glitter fairy dust to sprinkle inside the terrarium. We wrapped fairy lights around the turrets and she placed two princesses on the top. totally charming! Anita in VA
