Absolutely loved this class!

From start to finish, this was a wonderful experience. Ella was patient, encouraging, and explained every step clearly - making the whole process feel calm and enjoyable.

The craft kit arrived beautifully packed with everything you need, and the live class was easy to follow at a relaxed pace. The highlight was seeing the finished glass dome with preserved roses come together - it looks absolutely stunning and I'm so proud of the result!

I'd recommend this to absolutely everyone - whether you're a complete beginner, looking for a unique gift idea, or just want a soothing and creative activity. No prior experience needed at all, just show up and enjoy the process.

Will definitely be booking another class with Lila's Garden.

Loved it thank you. Just one thing. You can improve by mixwd colored succelent plants not just green. Add a bit more of the sands they were not enough. But all in all i loved it. Thank you

Karen Fitz-Gibbon • Attended May 2026

I did this class with my hyperactive 9yo son for Mother's Day and it was so fantastic, because he could be as messy and noisy as he needed to concentrate, without us leaving the comfort of home. The teacher, Ella, was so patient and encouraging, and we were both thrilled with the terrariums we created. Thank you Ella.

I used the instructions provide to set up the plant system. It was easily done. This kit was worth the wait and time! Building my DIY succulent terrarium felt less like crafting decor and more like composing a quiet ecosystem. Layering stone, charcoal, soil, and tiny plants reminded me that beauty depends on structure we rarely notice. Each succulent carried its own personality: one upright and resilient, another soft and patient. When I finished, the glass vessel held more than greenery; the desert in a glass dome is alive where love, care and imagination can coexist. The terrarium is radiant and alive, asking me to slow down, and appreciate how life thrives. It’s a living reminder of nature doing Yoga.

great teacher, patient and friendly

Leisa McBride • Attended Dec 2025

Lovely understanding teacher. The dome is big with a nice solid base. Everything in the kit was packed very carefully. With my hands I'm very slow at doing things. I did finish it and it looks amazing.

Thank you Lily.

Lila was lovely and the class was excellent! Easy to follow instructions, all products in excellent condition and supplied in labelled bags. Plants healthy. I am so thrilled with my terrarium!

Gerrie-Lee McAvaney • Ordered Oct 2025

I enjoyed the serenity it gave me putting it together.

Christine Tran • Attended Oct 2025

Ella was very patient and clear with her explanations! Went through step by step building the terrarium and explained why things were used (moss, charcoal). Very happy and satisfied with my terrarium!

Patricia Forward • Attended Oct 2025

This class online through Zoom was excellent.

Lelia was an excellent teacher. The kit arrived 4 days before the class with instructions whereby I could have put it together myself, but having Lela online talking me through it was very helpful.

She even explained how to look after and water the Terrarium.

Thoroughly recommend it.

Lila's Garden -making a succulent terrarium. This class was a fun experience. The teacher was very friendly and also very patient to work with. She is happy for you to work with at your own pace. She was also very good at giving instructions.

Jen Fidan • Ordered Jul 2025

I’m generally not good with plants and had no idea what I was doing but the instructions were ver clear and so far the plants have survived so I’m ver hopeful! It was lovely getting everything I needed and all the instructions in a way even I could follow! Great kit.

Rebecca Griffith • Attended Jul 2025

The team loved this workshop! It was so much fun and a great way for our distributed team to spend some time together. Ella was a wonderful host and very accommodating (we had a scheduling blunder on my end and Ella gave us some extra time to wait for folks to join). Highly recommend!

Was so wonderful to do this online class with my daughter. The kit is so beautiful and the teacher stepped us through at a perfect pace. We were so proud of the end result.

Fiona Shaw • Attended Dec 2024

This was another great class doing terrarium. Teacher very patient explained why we put stones on base moss then doinl etc for drainage so pants not to wet and fed through roots of succulents. Very pretty with pebbles and kit comes with everything needed as well.

Great gift for someone also. Recommend to anyone to do. Thankyou do much Fiona

Sunil Subramanian • Attended Jan 2025

It was for my daughter, the teacher was good. In mutual interest, a follow up contact to see how the terrarium is performing would be nice, not necessary though - just a suggestion. Also could help to see if my daughter has any friends interested and was interested in doing another one sooner or later :)

Pimumpai Pond • Attended Feb 2025

It was such a fun and creative session. The terrarium kit has everything you need to create a cute terrarium. I got quite a tall plant so the teacher advised to keep the terrarium open.

Scott Robertson • Attended Feb 2025

Excellent event that our team could attend virtually, but still leave with a physical reminder of the activities during the class - a terrarium!

Ella is really knowledgeable and very organized - she was really helpful in organizing for delivery of the materials and explained everything so well during the activity. Already planning the next one!

Megan Shadbolt • Attended Aug 2024

Attending the terrarium-making class was a delightful experience. The instructor was knowledgeable, guiding us through each step with patience and clear explanations. The class provided all the necessary materials, from vibrant plants to various decorative elements, allowing for creativity and personalisation. The hands-on approach made the process engaging, and the tips on plant care were particularly helpful. By the end, I had crafted a beautiful, self-sustaining mini-garden that I was proud to take home. The class was both relaxing and rewarding—a perfect activity for anyone looking to explore their creative side.
