Most people like myself have use Tubberware containers for humid hides stuffed with paper towels or moss, but is there any way to make these plastic containers "cute". I may be getting a Leo soon n want everything thing set-up ahead of time. I have these great hides and some hanging plants for decoration but have no idea how to decorate the humid hide so it can mix in with the surrounding decorations.

Does anyone have any ideas or pictures of what they've done with their humid hides?

you could use nontoxic glue.
Glue the tupperware top and sides and then strew sand over it. This way you have the tupperware sandcovered.
You can also take a big Styroform square and use it as a blind for the tupperware. You take the square and cut a hole from one side in it so that you can put the styroform over the tupperware. than you make a little hole at the place where you have the entrance in the top side of the square and than you can dasign the styroform just like a Backwall made of styroform.
You can look here its a wonderful tut how to make it!!!

My husband took the terra cotta flower pots and carefully cut holes in the sides. He then glued ( non toxic glue) them upside down to the little dishes that you get to catch the water. We filled them with moss and they look pretty neat and the geckos use them ok.

you can buy fake plants and glue them to the hide that looks cool and natural.
