Terrarium workshop

Myself and my partner had a lovely afternoon at the Terrarium Workshop and would highly recommend it; everything was provided with so many thoughtful touches and it was super informative too. We'll definitely be back!

I've bought several houseplants from Sap Plants over the years and the advice and quality has always been amazing. The terrarium workshop was next level though. Chan clearly knows a huge amount and is so good at guiding a novice to producing a terrarium that I am incredibly proud of! The guidance was great and the workshop itself was really enjoyable and a great opportunity to meet like minded people. I would even do one again!

Terrarium Workshop 🪴

I recently took a terrarium workshop with Chan and had a really fab experience. The workshop itself was ran smoothly, making the experience enjoyable and relaxing, the instructions were clear and she gave great advice on how to care for the terrariums afterwards, as well as advice on how to make our own at home! The communication before and after the workshops was very efficient and useful. Would definitely recommend to others :-)

Want a terrific time constructing Terrariums?

I had the privilege of going to one of Sap Plants terrarium workshops this week. Although locating the venue was tricky, Chan ensured she kept an eye out so that everyone could find the room.
The event, itself, had a very warm and pleasant environment. The bunting was fun!

The workshop began with Chan giving a very clear (crystal clear) demonstration so that everyone knew what they had to do. Everything was broken down into very straight forward and accessible steps.

We were given plenty of time to construct a terrarium and Chan was always on hand to give advice, or encouragement. Creativity was encouraged, and tips were easily provided.

Throughout the event, we all had access to the materials we needed. There was no resource that ran out. Chan also brought adorable small figurines we could add to the terrarium for a very good sum.

A fantastic experience!

Chan has crafted a really fantastic workshop. Everything was provided, and after a few simple steps, everyone came away with a terrarium they could be really proud of. They look beautiful and professional, and the guidance was stellar all the way through. It was clear that Chan knows an awful lot, and was able to anticipate any issues we might have, both in the workshop and in the future. I would go again and recommend it to anyone with even a passing interest. Communication before, during and after the workshop was also excellent.

OBSESSED WITH TERRARIUMS NOW!!! <3

I can't think of a more relaxing and fun way to spend an afternoon than the Sap Plants terrarium workshop - not only did I have a lot of fun creating my first very own terrarium, but I also learned sooo much about terrariums and making sure that it thrives long-term! :)

You didn't need any prior knowledge or bring any tools, which makes the workshop very accessible and Chan was super helpful with any issues/queries that came up.

The workshop teaches you everything you need to know to create more terrariums at home, and Chan was also very kind to offer help via email if we experience any issues with our terrariums in the future. Could not recommend more <3

Fantastic Workshop

This workshop was as fun as it was informative. Chan was an excellent host who took the time to help each individual when needed, everything was explained really well and I left confident and proud of what I had made. All materials provided were great quality. I would really recommend this workshop to anyone looking to try something new or explore their interest in plants. The venue for the workshop I attended was Lucy & Yak, it was a lovely place to host and we were able to browse after the workshop at the clothes and use our £5 vouchers that were included with the workshop. Such a brilliant collab!

Terrarium workshop

Bought the terrarium workshop as a gift for my husband and we both loved the experience and love our terrariums. Something that would make it better is if a projector or something similar was used when explaining the process to avoid twisting in seats or missing anything.

Terrarium workshop

We attended a sap plants terrarium building workshop on valentine's day. Honestly the best date I've ever been on. Chan was so helpful, kind and patient and the terrariums we made look amazing ❤️

Highly knowledgeable, great service!

I've always wanted a terrarium so when I got a small bonus at work back in the summer, I decided to ask Chan to make one for me. I love it! Being new to owning a terrarium I was grateful for the Sap Plants card which had detailed placement and care instructions. So far I haven't needed to take the cork out once - any small amount of condensation I've noticed has always cleared naturally. The plants are thriving and I can really recommend this as a way to bring a piece of the outside inside to a small flat, and plant joy to someone who seems congenitally unable to keep house plants alive. On top of this, Chan is a joy to deal with. Highly recommended

I absolutely love SAP plants and have purchased a few different plants from them now! The plants are always excellently packaged and are of excellent quality. They have been well looked after and grow much better than house plants I have bought at garden centres! Can’t wait to buy from SAP again.

Great terrarium workshop!

I attended a terrarium workshop by Sap Plants. It was a relaxed and informative session which Chan followed up with all an email containing all the information needed to create your own terrarium again at home. I’d definitely recommend it!

Avoid at all costs

Very disappointed in my experience with Sap plants. After spending good money on a terrarium for my husband, it died within a week! Sap plants replaced it and acknowledged that terrariums should last a long time. The replacement died after only a few days, and after following advise from Sap plants nothing changed. Sap plants outright refused to give a refund. What a waste of money. If you are reading this, go elsewhere. There are plenty of other plant shops that will look after you and not hang you out to dry when their plants die immediately.

Sap plants, you know where to reach me if you decide to do the right thing and refund me. Readers of this review, I will update this if anything changes.

Reply from Sap Plants

Hi Joe & Sarah,

I'm sorry you remain dissatisfied and I understand you'd like a refund to resolve this.

Your order was collected on 17th March. When your partner first advised of a problem on 9th May, I gave advice about the correct light exposure and placement of the terrarium in your home. I also replaced the plants and remade the terrarium free of charge, as a goodwill gesture.

The care instructions are important because a terrarium has different requirements to a normal potted house plant.

Joe made me aware on 4th July that he had taken the cork out of the terrarium for 24-48 hours, which goes against the advised 1-2 hours in the care instructions provided. Prolonged exposure due to the removal of the cork has a detrimental effect on the plants inside the bottle.

Although I always strive to give detailed and helpful guidance, the owner of the plant is ultimately responsible for maintaining its health. I cannot offer you a refund on this occasion, as the order was placed in February, the replacement provided in June and specific care instructions have been given on multiple occasions.

Thank you,
Sap Plants

Fun by yourself or with company

Really lovely treat for any plant lovers who are looking to try something new! I went on the terrarium workshop solo and it was a really warm and welcoming environment. Chan is very skilled and patient and the plants used were very healthy and varied in colour.
Bonus for the fact that maintenance and aftercare is provided with the workshop.

Terrarium workshop

I took the terrarium workshop with Chan and would highly recommend it - she was welcoming, knowledgeable and enthusiastic and clearly explained each step and helped along the way. And I now have a delightful hopefully non-killable plant for my home!
