It was really fun creating it. The class was great. But all three of ours molded over. So we couldn’t keep them. It was very disappointing because I was excited to have one.

What It Is
Our mini terrarium class in Honolulu is the quickest hands-on craft at our Chinatown studio, 15 N Pauahi Street: 45 minutes to build a tropical miniature garden in a small glass case with live moss, lava rock and island-inspired decor. $49 per person, all materials included, and it suits ages 6 and up, so families and cruise-day visitors book it most.
Public classes seat up to 12. Private mini terrarium sessions host groups up to 200 at the studio or at your venue on Oʻahu.
