What happens in this class?

Get your hands dirty and learn how to make a closed terrarium. A Terrarium is an indoor garden and is the perfect way to bring the outside in. Display yours on a desk or in a small space. We will spend a couple of hours putting the terrarium together. It is really therapeutic so the perfect way to unwind after a tough day at work.

Terrariums are a self-contained eco system. Heat and light pass through the glass walls and the plants photosynthesise. Condensation forms on the glass and drips down into the soil watering the plants.

Lisa was a welcoming host and has created a very relaxed but informative event. It's a small group making it easier to chat with the other attendees which adds to the experience. You also get to leave with a lovely terrarium!

Thank you very much for this really good moment. I would never though that making a Terrarium could be so relaxing !! Sarah is a really good "teacher" and amazing after-sales service ! Thank you so much - will come back for sure

Really fun and interactive, well prepared and considered. Because we were a small group it was easy to chat to other people and share ideas and materials. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an unique and super fun way of relaxing after work. The wine and snacks is such a good idea too! :-)

Absolutely loved it! Really didn’t know what to expect but Sarah was fantastic the perfect host as we arrived to get the conversation going before we got down to the serious (relaxing) business of making. You could just feel everyone becoming immersed in creating their creation and demonstrating their own style (all really lovely). The aftercare and guide to allow you to continue this as a hobby at home makes it very feasible to get making. Top tips for where to get the plants, equipment and simply keep them alive! Would definitely recommend and will be keeping an eye on the future workshops.

Such a fun, relaxed vibe with the lovely Sarah! Had a lovely time creating my terrarium, Sarah has great taste and gave me all the skills and tools I needed. Would definitely recommend and come again!

This is not the sort of thing I'd normally be up for doing but I got roped into it by my wife due to her new-found obsession with plants. I can truly say that it was a fantastic evening and I really enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. I found the class really chilled and therapeutic. The people were great, nice wine, superb location. Sarah was so informative and enthusiastic, and my new terrarium is sitting proudly on my desk at work, brightening up the office! Highly recommend doing this class.

I had a brilliant time learning how to make a terrarium, it was really relaxing and fun and the finished terrarium still looks great two weeks later! We had a lovely selection of plants, and Sarah was very knowledgable about the different species. Also great to have red wine and snacks provided! A great experience all round.

Had such a wonderful experience. Beautiful setting, very calming, was really therapeutic to get my hands dirty with the soil yet got my creative juices going with all the planting and decorating with pebbles. All the equipment was provided and the teacher was lovely and warm. Loved every minute of it and so proud of my terrarium I took home with me! Also such a bargain compared to other courses out there in making a terrarium.

Although I attended the terranium class I actually made a kokedama (Japanese moss ball). The class was good fun - very relaxed and well organised, with a follow up email on how to care for my new plant.

Really enjoyed the class and would recommend to everyone to sign up and take part. Not being that green fingered and wondering how hard could this be... I came out with a whole new love for plants and lots of plant care info. Sarah the host was warm and friendly and even provided us with drinks and nibbles throughout the duration of the workshop. It was a nice informal setting, and the host was very patient and demonstrated us through each step of the process and was on hand to help and give advice throughout. I went home with a great terrarium and feel inspired to make some more! The after care advice was spot on - which I followed to the T and guess what the Terrarium is still alive! I can't wait to sign up for another class.

Really friendly teacher and cosy environment to learn how to make terrariums. Sarah was great explaining and doing the demo at the beginning. When we had a go at doing our terrarium, Sarah was always available to give advice and help out. Perfect way of spending an evening learning something new!

I thought the workshop was really interesting. I learn a lot about the impact of plants on our health as well as how to make and maintain a Terrarium. It was a really fun but also relaxing atmosphere. We were provided with all of the tools and materials we needed to make our Terrrarium and we got to take the finished jar home!! I would Highly recommend this workshop.

The workshop was good fun and would definitely attend again. It was great to create our own little eco system.

This was the best class I've ever done. Sarah was so lovely and welcoming and had all the things you need to create a beautiful self watering terrarium (including wine and snacks!). Perfect class to destress after a crazy day!
