Super Mario Terrarium

This past weekend, my husband and I celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary.  We had a date night complete with a movie and dinner at The Melting Pot.  We also gave gifts.  While I got some lovely roses and chocolates, my husband got this.

He's a long-time Mario fan and we are both big nerds.  I had been picturing making him this for awhile and even though it's not very romantic, this was the gift.

I found the glass bowl at the hardware store and filled it with rocks and dirt.  I then added a few succulents, using the most "Mario-looking" ones I could find.

The warp pipe is just a piece of pipe from the hardware store that I painted green.  And I found this Mario figure.  I could only find a small enough figure in a set, but now we just have extra toys.  Can't go wrong with more toys.

What do you guys think?  I also have an idea to make a Doctor Who themed one, possibly with a TARDIS.  But that one will be for myself...
