I am so uninspired lately!
I Need inspiration so can you please post photos of your decorated enclosures.
I have been looking at my empty tank getting annoyed with myself for not having the get go.
I purchased the tank and it had the foam back ground I think that's the down fall. Hubby knows I don't need a background ugh, i wanted one of the latex ones, then my hollow tree trunk broke I just don't seem to be able to win a trick at the moment.
My idea had a waterfall, orchards, ferns (fake) and a tree hollow!
Help me and others with your enclosures.
Let others see you inspiration!

Hope this helps.
 
Go to the 'Stein Enclosures' page and start drooling. You're bound to get inspired by them.
 
Thanks snakefreak16 and Calipherp that's helping heaps. I love the natural look.

Gruni I love their designs but Im not that cashed up or handy lol. Just want simple natural look, So my snakes are the focus point.
 
Almost finished with my new enclosure, get the glass today and hopefully the heat cord today or tomorrow

Sorry Pics are terrible. I broke my camera so I have to use my laptop :(

This is my Jungle's I just finished: Looks so much better in real life :) (Background fell down in pics...oops! :oops:) Fake plants are from Cheap as chips. Cost me $20 to decorate this one and my bredlis (So about $10 per enclosure).

Once again absolute terrible photos :cry: This one isn't quite finished. I'm adding in some desert rocks I found at my Grand Pa's Farm. They are still soaking and getting scrubbed, etc.

Caliherp!!!!!! I AM JEALOUS OF YOUR SNAKES!!!!!!! Those enclosures are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!!
 
Sometimes less is more. My massive diamond enclosure, really need to get him into something smaller and get a costal or similar in it. Real happy with how this turned out, looks clean, pretty natural and while still standing out the main attention is still on the snake IMO.

Thank you, I try. I like yours as well. The first three are for geckos the last is for a ball python. I have a majority of my collection in plastic tubs though. Im the type of person that likes to put a 500 dollar gecko in a 30 dollar setup. I just like to have a few display enclosures to stare at and mess with.
 
Few of mine

Not that I think mine is all that inspirational but it goes to show that keeping it simple still works.

I think they are all inspirational! I love the natural look. Mine is slowly coming together, I have sealed my wood pieces.
Six weeks ago I had disks replaced in my back and I just lost my mojo with the pain and worry. But today has been very productive. So thank you I really needed this. I will post pics tomorrow. Thank you heaps everyone much appreciated.
 
I reckon the latex backdrops, though expensive, can make or brake a good enclosure. You could try a second hand one?

The latex backgrounds look the shiz but I flinch at the extra cost compared to having a stab at a foam background build, at least on my current budget. ;)
 
Just thought I would give Bundy a little time to acclimatise to his new enclosure
