How to make a mason jar terrarium

You don't have to be a pro gardener to grow indoor plants. Terrariums are a cool way to add some green to your space while also making plant care easy. For this terrarium, simply twist off the mason jar and spray the plants with water whenever they need a drink.
By using three jars instead of one for this terrarium, you get a piece that makes a big impact. With the addition of pinecones and acorns, the final product is a rustic and woodland-inspired decor item that allows you to bring a little bit of nature indoors.
