At just 11 years old, Anthony is the creative force behind Flourishing Hobbies, a small business where he handcrafts unique terrariums in both open and closed containers. With a deep love for nature and design, Anthony does everything himself—from blending his own soil mixes to carefully selecting each plant and thoughtfully designing every miniature ecosystem. His closed terrariums are not only beautiful, but they’re also living, self-sustaining environments. For those who want an extra touch of nature’s magic, Anthony offers the option to include isopods and springtails—tiny, beneficial creatures that help maintain the health of the terrarium. These micro-cleanup crews break down organic matter, reduce mold, and help keep the environment balanced, making each terrarium lower maintenance and longer-lasting. With every piece, Anthony brings a little bit of the outdoors inside—combining creativity, science, and sustainability in a way that’s both inspiring and impressive.
