Recent reviews of Beginner's Bottle Terrariums Class
- 5/5 from Nani Johnston, attended Apr 2026: We had a fabulous time with Charlene. She was great, very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. The 2 hours flown by. We love that we get to make the terrariums and bring them home with us.
- 5/5 from Ali Woolford, attended Jan 2026: We had a great time, the teacher was awesome and it was a lovely relaxed environment. I totally recommend.
- 5/5 from Jody Holdback, attended Jun 2025: All classes I have taken at Botanista have been educational and enjoyable. Creating these little bottles was no exception. It was quite different as you are unable to fit your hands in the bottles, but Charlene gave us all the techniques we needed to prepare and plant our bottle terrariums. The range of plants and dangles were great! Members of the class were all extremely helpful to each other. It was an enjoyable way to start your Saturday morning. I look forward to continuing taking classes at Botanista.
- 5/5 from Serene Lim, attended Jun 2025: Shar's class was incredibly fun. We plan to attend more. For anyone that loves plants, i would suggest this class.
- 5/5 from Simone Tabone, attended Apr 2025: a fantastic class... much enjoyment. Joy in a jar
