Succulent Terrarium Workshop

Join us at Merchant & Green in Redfern for one of our engaging and easy-to-follow terrarium workshops, where you’ll craft your very own DIY terrarium to take home. Perfect for beginners and plant enthusiasts alike, this workshop combines creativity and relaxation in a lush, plant-filled environment.

For those unfamiliar, a terrarium is a compact glass container filled with petite plants, nutrient-rich soil, and decorative elements. These miniature gardens thrive indoors, offering a low-maintenance way to bring nature into your daily life. Terrariums require minimal care and, with the tips shared during the workshop, can flourish for years.

Our workshops provide everything you need to design your terrarium, including a premium glass vase, a variety of river stones, vibrant moss, and special soil blends. You’ll also select three adorable mini succulents to personalise your creation. Led by our expert team, the session includes step-by-step demonstrations, one-on-one guidance, and plenty of opportunities to ask questions as you work.

The experience is as enjoyable as it is creative. Feel the textures of the soil and stones, breathe in the refreshing earthy scents, and let your imagination shape your tiny garden. Will you design a tranquil Zen retreat, a riverside scene, or an entirely unique landscape? The possibilities are endless, and the process is both calming and rewarding.

At the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a beautifully crafted terrarium, a Merchant & Green care card to help you keep it thriving, and the skills to create more terrariums in the future. Whether you use it to enhance your home or office or gift it to someone special, your terrarium will be a lasting reminder of a creative and memorable experience.

You'll get easy-to-follow demonstrations, and the team will give you one-on-one feedback and tips along the way.

This is an interactive and relaxing class, and you'll have plenty of time to ask questions, reconnect with nature, and get lost in the moment. Run your fingers through the textures of the soil and the stones, and breathe in some glorious earthy scents. Get creative as you select the elements and shape your mini garden landscape, just the way you like it. Will you make a Zen garden? A natural riverside landscape?
