Your Workshop Journey

Sip, Snack & Discover

Layer & Build the Base

Layer & Build the Base

Step into the world of terrarium design by layering soil, charcoal, and moss to form the foundation. Learn why each layer matters in creating a healthy, balanced ecosystem.

Plant & Personalize

Plant & Personalize

Add live tropical plants, arrange moss for texture, and decorate with stones or accents to reflect your style. Your instructor shares tips on plant care and the fascinating world of tropical flora as you craft.

Finish, Share & Unwind

I stopped by Kraft Stories during First Fridays on my way to Capitol Modern, and it was a great experience. The owners were incredibly welcoming, with art supplies ready for adult students and their guests. They also shared some unique appetizers with everyone. Definitely check out Kraft Stories on First Fridays or look out for upcoming activities to sign up with friends – it's a great way to spend time together creatively.
