Bonnie Basabe

Our teacher had an apparent and effusive love for the crafting and care of terrariums. The word most used by our team was "magical"

A great quality terrarium that was so fun to pit together and has been so easy to maintain! all the items included were high quality and exceeded my expectations. Perfect Gift Idea or mini home project to do on your own!

Taylor Robertson

Fun, informative, and very nice teacher!

Thomas Young

Our instructor was very nice, and the class was fun and informative.

Elizabeth Welch

Class was so great! He showed us all of his various terrariums as well as insects. He was very knowledgeable and fun! 10/10 would take again

Sigourney Berndt

A great experience! Kits arrived safe & sound, and had everything we needed. We had a great time assembling the terrariums (hopefully now we can keep them alive!)

Diana Yeung

The instructor was excellent, putting in effort to communicate before the class when contacted, as well as at the start of class (when I was running a bit late). Directions were clear and the class was informative, while also relaxing (loved the background music provided by the instructor). I was happy with my finished product and the instructor provided lots of content for more learning as well as offering to be a resource for future questions or issues. This class was also purchased as a birthday gift for my sibling, who said they had a lot of fun and enjoyed the activity.

Fun Class. The Instructor was not clear on how much dirt to use and why, so I ended up using all the dirt/soil and I can't see the moss. :(.

Valissa Mayers

The class was very enjoyable as well as educational! Nur is an engaging instructor who is very knowledgeable. I recommend for team building, especially over Zoom.

Jennifer Luong

Nur was a fantastic host and was very responsive to my planning questions! He has totally created a very good class complete with music, multiple cameras, and lots of fun facts on terrariums! You can tell he's very passionate about terrariums! Thanks for a fun and relaxing class!
