What Makes a Blue Squid Terrarium Different
Every terrarium is built with the same philosophy: sustainable materials, expert knowledge, and genuine care.
Upcycled Glass
I source each piece from charity shops, antique fairs, and car boot sales across Surrey. Every jar has its own history, and I love giving them a second life filled with something living and beautiful. Zero glass goes to landfill.
Living Ecosystems
These are not just plants in a jar. As a qualified horticulturist, I carefully balance each terrarium so it becomes a self-sustaining ecosystem. The layers, the drainage, the plant selection; everything works together so it thrives on its own.
What Customers Say
“Absolutely stunning terrarium. The attention to detail is incredible, and you can tell it has been made with real love and expertise. It has been thriving for months with barely any attention. I have already ordered a second one as a gift!”

From Reclaimed Glass to Living Art
Every terrarium goes through the same careful four-step process.
Source
Vintage glass sourced from charity shops, antique fairs, and car boot sales across Surrey.
Design
Each terrarium starts with studying the glass — the shape, the proportions. Taller plants for taller glass, lower growing in shorter glassware. Then I picture the landscape that would work and fit.
Plant
Layered drainage, activated charcoal, soil, hardscape, then plants selected for the specific environment.
Seal & Settle
Closed terrariums closed to create a self-watering ecosystem. Left to settle, then ready for collection or local delivery with full care instructions.
