Katie, who previously held a senior position in a travel company, and Lucas, formerly working for a chauffeur company, found themselves facing challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. Determined to turn their passion into a livelihood, they decided to take their terrarium creations more seriously, and their business took off faster than they expected.
They meticulously craft miniature green worlds with precision and care. Each piece is a testament to their creative talents and dedication to their craft.
Katie and Lucas's love for teaching and sharing their knowledge is evident. It all started when they were asked to conduct their first workshop, which they thoroughly enjoyed. Recognising both the joy of teaching and the business potential, they decided to pursue this path.
Step into their workshop and you'll find yourself immersed in two charming rooms. One room serves as a cosy plant sanctuary, filled with a delightful array of greenery. The second room, spacious and bathed in natural light, sets the stage for their workshops. The atmosphere is inviting, making it the perfect space to unleash your creativity.

A very enjoyable afternoon. Katie offered a mix between theoretical and practical knowledge. The history of terrariums was also interesting to learn. I chose the large option and was very happy with the finished result.

What a fantastic experience! Katie was very knowledgeable, first teaching how to construct the terrarium, and then as you worked to construct your own, she would share tips and hints, and finally, how to get the best out of your terrarium aftercare.
