Smile Re: How to: Terrarium

Vintage brass props can be used as a focal point in your new terrarium project.
I chose dolphins because they remind me of the bronze roundabout sculptures in Florida.
Other ideas are sailfish, galloping horses, turtles, and stingrays.

Dolphins are brass..... soaked in vinegar and salt mixture to create an aged look.
Once the patina is set after a few days the finish can be worked to the desired coverage.
