Until about two years ago, I had never even heard of needle felting. But now I’ve seen some amazing demonstrations of the craft, including household appliances, a comic book cover, and Jabba the Hutt. There’s an amazing world of fabric crafts on the Internet, and plenty of people that will be glad to teach you. Amanda Carestio’s terrarium, for example, comes with instructions.
You can make a terrarium in a light bulb, so why not a glass sphere Christmas tree ornament? It’s a cute way of showing vibrant life in the middle of winter. Yuka Yoneda of Inhabitat provides step-by-step instructions at the link.
A how-to on turning a light bulb into a terrarium has been posted before, but if you haven’t gotten started on the project yet 1-800-Recycling has a few amazing examples to use as inspiration. The one pictured above is like a portable little escape to Yosemite National Park.

Terrarium (or technically, vivarium) is a neat glass enclosure for plants but for some, they’re too … boxy. Well, never fear! Here are some geometric terrariums for the boxophobics: Link
Instructables has connections to instructions on how to hollow out a light bulb, cleaning the kaolin powder off and making planters and terrariums out of them! For the latter tip, check their comments section. Link.
