A truly wonderful experience! The class was well-organized, and the teacher was very approachable, answering all our questions with lots of detail. The whole process was really satisfying, and I’m so happy with my finished terrarium. It was a fun and educational experience, perfect for beginners like me. Would love to attend again!

I absolutely loved this terrarium workshop! The atmosphere was relaxed, and the instructor made everything so easy to follow. All the materials were provided, and I was really happy with how my terrarium turned out. It was such a fun and creative way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a unique experience!

I'm not usually crafty, but this workshop was perfect for me. The instructor was patient and helped everyone create something beautiful. It's so satisfying to look at my little glass garden and know I made it myself. Plus, it's been three weeks and I haven't killed it yet - that's a record for me! Definitely worth trying, even if you don't have a green thumb.

As an avid gardener, I was skeptical about terrariums, but this workshop changed my mind. The instructor's knowledge was impressive, and the materials provided were top-notch. I left with a beautiful creation and newfound appreciation for miniature ecosystems. A must-try for plant enthusiasts!

I recently attended a terrarium-making class, and it was a fantastic experience! The instructor was knowledgeable and patient, guiding us through each step with clear and easy-to-follow instructions. The class was well-organised, and all the materials provided were of excellent quality. I particularly enjoyed the creative freedom we had in designing our terrariums, making each one unique. By the end of the session, I felt confident in my ability to create more terrariums at home. I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in a fun, hands-on activity that combines art with nature.

The product broke the next day as the terrarium glass is cheap and thin. I have several terrariums that have lasted years and the glass is solid, I wouldn’t waste my money on this again and don’t recommend this class to anyone

I loved the class and my new terrarium. Katie was very helpful during the class and ensured we leave with a beautifully made terrarium. I could also choose my own plants, which is a big plus.

I bought the DIY Terrarium Workshop as a Christmas gift for my husband and we went in January. It was so fun and amazing to do! There’s free parking outside the studio, with the workshop based upstairs in a communal area. Katie led us through a brief history of the terrarium, their business and demonstrated how to make one before setting us off to do it ourselves. If you arrive early, you have the opportunity to go down to their warehouse and choose what plants you would like in your terrarium. There are so many choices! Otherwise, they can pick the plants for you. You have all the tools and kit you need. I bought the ‘Big Balloon’ kit for my husband which required more soil than the smaller ones, and they were able to top-up anything else you needed (i.e get us more soil, provide bigger looking rocks etc). It’s great building it with other people in the workshop too, not difficult to do and anyone can build one. Especially as you have Katie there as a guide which was extremely helpful. At the end Katie runs through how to care and maintain your terrarium and provides a sheet with this information on (in case you forget!). Overall a great experience and I would 100% recommend the workshop to other people who would want to build their own!
