Welcome to my little garden
Welcome to my little garden

The high school I attended was in the middle of a residential area in Setagaya, and there were many wealthy houses on the school road. Before Halloween, the houses decorate the garden and the outer walls lively. I was envious and thought about going to get some sweets.

So, this time, I will make a longing Halloween garden. In addition, you can add a light function that is perfect for Halloween nights!

◆ What to prepare

First of all, here are the essential ingredients.


・ Glass jar with lid (I used a Mason jar with a wide mouth, but anything is fine)
・ Sphagnum ・ Interior LED ornament light

In addition, we will prepare Halloween goods, fake greens, miniature miscellaneous goods, etc. as you like. This time, I bought everything except the jar at the 100-yen shop "Ceria".

Ceria has a lot of miniature miscellaneous goods * For balance reasons, I didn't use the garland on the lower right.

◆ Make a garden in the jar

Now let's build a Halloween garden.

First, fill the jar with sphagnum moss to make a base. This time, I'm laying a stone that happened to be in my house, but it's okay if I don't use it. If there is a stone, it will be stable when pointing a pick.

By using sphagnum moss, you can create a realistic atmosphere at once.

Now you have your own garden (although it's small)! After that, let's arrange miscellaneous goods freely. Fake green is easy to use when cut.

◆ Make it a light

You can enjoy it as it is, but we will finish it as an interior light to give it a more Halloween feel.

This time, we prepared a blinking type LED light. The deep orange light and the natural shimmer create a dubious moon-like light on Halloween night. Turn on the switch, stick it on the back of the lid with double-sided tape, cover the bottle and you're done!

If the light goes down, it will be ruined, so check the adhesive strength carefully. I used general double-sided tape.

Let's move to a dark place.

Yeah, suspicious!

The small world where the light shimmers seems to be able to be seen forever ... Use a clear jar if you want to see the contents firmly, or a thick glass jar if you want a soft light. If you put it on the table, entrance, toilet, etc., there is no doubt that the Halloween party will be lively!
