Closed terrariums are miniature, self-sufficient indoor gardens. They’re cute, fun to make, simple to care for, and easy to recreate again at home.
If you manage to kill even the most un-killable of cacti but still yearn for some greenery at your office or home, then working with terrariums might be your best bet.
A terrarium is hassle-free and if you do it right you never have to water it or remove the lid! And, once you’ve learned how to build your first terrarium, you can make them again yourself as gifts for your friends’ – housewarmings, birthdays, Thank-yous…even cuter with a personalised trinket.
All materials are provided and you’ll get to take home your beautiful creation at the end of the workshop!
