I found this aquarium, some may call it terrarium, at the Salvation Army Store last week. Dirty, dusty, shabby. Even Miss B. said, "where did you find that?" wondering what the heck I was planning to do with it. Of course my husband was horrified when he saw it in our basement (honestly, I didn't think he was going to notice).
Well I was inspired by Theresa of time-worn interiors, and Theresa of Garden Antqs Vintage (these women are SO talented!).
After a little bit of cleaning up, this is what I did with it.I think it's a versatile piece that could be used in oh so many ways. Like for storing toilet paper rolls in a bathroom. Baby doll heads on a bed of moss. All kinds of collections. I think I will even flip it over sometime and use it as a sort of cloche. What would you do?

I can understand why some people don't get it. However, I think it's great. You are absolutely right...the possibilities are endless~

Thank you so much for the mention, what a great find. You will find you can do so much with your aquarium. Happy Sunday, Theresa
