Etsy Find: Terrariums

Terrariums seem to be sprouting up everywhere we look these days. No matter how many varieties we see, though, we feel like we'll never tire of these green little worlds under glass. These are just a few we've gathered up from Etsy...

Hey, does anyone know a good basic info page for building a terrarium? Specifically, I'm trying to figure out which plants would do well in an open-top aquarium with a north-eastern exposure... I could find a way to seal the top, I suppose, but there's not much I can do about the lousy light. Hint: I like moss. Can I make moss happy in my humble abode?

I don't have a specific site for you, rosenatti, but I highly recommend checking out your local library. It probably still has a few of the upteen books from the 70's about DIY terrariums.
