Another icon package called font-awesome has better flexibility and feature of stacking icons together. Bootstrap 3 containing Glyphicons don't have much options so I took out the CSS from font-awesome and adopted it for Glyphicon.
The HTML looks like:
<span class="glyphicon-stack">
<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-circle glyphicon-stack-2x"></i>
<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus glyphicon-stack glyphicon-stack-1x"></i>
</span>
The main CSS:
.glyphicon-stack {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
width: 2em;
height: 2em;
line-height: 2em;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.glyphicon-circle{
position: relative;
border-radius: 50%;
width: 100%;
height: auto;
padding-top: 100%;
background: black;
}
.glyphicon-stack-1x {
line-height: inherit;
}
.glyphicon-stack-1x, .glyphicon-stack-2x {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
For the styling of the icons (color, size), you can create more css class properties and add to the respective icons.
Have a look at this example.

You can add some simple css rules to that element, like:
i {
background: green;
padding: 3px;
border-radius: 100%;
color: white;
}
You could abstract it, creating two classes, like i.circle.green, and split those rules between them, so you don't override default bootstrap classes.
Solution 3:[3]
Try wrapping the icon using .circle class.
Solution 4:[4]
as already mentioned, you can do something like this:
HTML
<div class='test'><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus"></span></div>
<span class="glyphicon-class">.glyphicon .glyphicon-plus</span>
CSS
.test{
width:25px;
height:25px;
background: green;
padding: 3px;
border-radius: 100%;
color: white;
text-align:center
}

This can be done natively in Bootstrap by:
<i class="d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center position-relative bi bi-circle lh-1" style="font-size: 15rem; color: cornflowerblue;">
<i style="font-size: 8rem;" class="position-absolute bi bi-card-checklist"></i>
</i>
