Low Maintenance Cactus & Succulent Terrarium! Garden Answer Cindy: Try using metal tongs to hold cactus' with thorns. Or use newspaper to hold the cactus either way you won't get those fine needles in your fingers to pick out for months. Living in the desert has taught me respect for cactus. Beautiful but dangerous. I had a cactus garden in my backyard in Vegas, it was nice.

Instead of tongs you could use a band of newspaper. Just fold a strip about an inch wide around the spines and hold the open end closed so the cactus is pinched between the newspaper. This way keeps your fingers close to allow for maneuverability and keeps your fingers safe!

Hi Garden Answer. I wish I knew your name. Oh well. I use plastic coated tongs to work with my cacti. You can control them as to how tight you hold the plant. Just a suggestion. Have a good evening. Yes this video was 4 weeks ago I realize.

It looks great! That cactus got you! I really love that you love cactus and succulents as much as all the other plants you have in and around your home. Thanks for the idea! I've always wanted to do a terrarium but they intimidate me.

Just a quick idea, use a pair of long handled tweezers when putting those pesky cactus with thorns on them down into the bowl. They work really great and you don't get stuck. Love the sound of the morning dove in the background.

Beautiful Laura, I love terrariums like this. You other terrarium is gorgeous as well. I would love to make one of these for my coffee table. Thank you for the inspiration to try and make one of these.

This is such a neat project! You do make it look so easy which has encouraged me to at least try. It almost sounded like someone tooting on a tin horn in the background. I told myself it was Benjamin

SerpaDesign films alot of terrariums, I'm not sure what equipment he uses but his videos always look good.
You're too hard on yourself, you can see everything very well. Looks great

Glad to see someone else saves interesting branches and roots for potential future projects! Also, could we get an update on your window boxes? They look lush and lovely behind you.
