Cultivate It
Add the gravel, moss, and air plant to your glass, and style it up! The flat bottom of the lightbulb jar provides a great base for a freestanding terrarium.

Care For It
Place your lightbulb terrarium in indirect light and spritz with water every two to three days (or more frequently if you live in a hot, dry environment). Be sure to remove the cap once a week to get enough air and light inside to dry it out. It's important to keep your terrarium water-free, so don't overspritz.
