Hanging Terrariums

  Why are hanging glass terrariums great?

• Their glass surfaces catch the light and lend bright elements to a room.

• They draw the eye upward, making your space feel more expansive.

• They take up very little space.

• Green thumbs are not required. The air plants used in hanging terrariums are

   extremely low maintenance, requiring very little water and care.

Pressing flowers in the microwave

1.Begin by cutting the stems short enough so that they'll fit in your press

2.. Place the flower on a sheet of clean paper, and continue placing additional flowers to design your layout; just make sure the flowers aren't touching one another.

3.You can use two pieces of stiff cardboard and a non-porous weight such as a small piece of marble. Place the flower between the cotton sheeting, place it in the microwave, starting at a medium heat, and set the timer for 35 seconds. Flip the press over, and microwave for an additional 20 seconds; check it, then microwave 20 seconds more. Remove. Set the flower between sheets of paper, and weight with a book until completely dry, about 1 hour.
