Little Landscapes

Life is sometimes about small steps that can become big steps. Little thoughts that become big thoughts.  And little worlds that become big worlds. The beauty of creating a microcosm of living things can be found in the creation of terrariums that showcase the beauty and splendor of little landscapes. These tiny creations are driven by a big imagination and a fondness for making things.
