decorations?

13 years ago

I'm new to terrariums. I'm making my first ones in smallish decorative jars. Now I'm looking for decorative add-ins. But I'm not sure what you call them so I can do a search for them. What DO you call the little figures of frogs and gnomes, deer etc?

i found these little doodads under terrarium miniatures, terrarium decor, fairy gardens. if your real creative, fimo clay is a pretty good alternative to making just about anything.

Yet another idea:
Depending on just how miniature you're thinking, you might also check at an arts & crafts store like Michael's. Some iems might be found in the kids section, some in the dollhouse section.
