Fun Flowers and Plants classes / courses in Sydney

Flower and plant classes are some of the best things to do in Sydney for plant enthusiasts and novice gardeners alike. Each class is designed to accommodate a range of experience levels and student knowledge so that everyone in the workshop can learn together and from each other! Plus, your experienced flowers and plants instructor will be there to teach you your brand new skill, whether that includes floristry or terrarium building, or one of the other fun Sydney workshop topics to choose from. You’ll love the supportive community atmosphere of these fun Sydney workshops, and it won’t surprise you to learn that these are some of the most popular kids activities Sydney has to offer. Whether you’re looking to build on your gardening skills or learn something completely new, there are plenty of engaging flowers and plants classes to explore. With your newfound knowledge and confidence with all things flora, you’ll want to keep expanding your plant-based knowledge and working on your favourite new hobby long after the class is over. And with new flowers and plants workshops being offered all the time, you’ll never have to look up “fun things to do in Sydney this weekend” again.

Floristry classes in Sydney

Floristry classes are wonderful for anyone who loves to have a fresh bouquet or decorate wreath around the house. With floristry courses, you’ll learn how to make the perfect floral arrangement for any special occasion, and don’t be surprised if your friends and loved ones start asking you to arrange bouquets for their upcoming birthdays and bridal showers! There are also fun flower wreaths classes in which you can make your own Christmas wreath or everyday dried flower wreaths. And if you’re looking for something even more mindfulness-based, you can opt for a fun Ikebana flower arrangement class!

Terrarium classes in Sydney

Terrarium workshops are fun for those who are skilled at plant care and those who can’t seem to keep their houseplants alive. Terrariums are self-sustaining, so all you need to do is put the terrarium together and this amazing mini ecosystem will do the rest. From succulent terrariums to moss terrariums, closed terrariums to hanging DIY terrariums, you’ll learn how to make these delightful plant worlds for all of your friends and family. This is a houseplant that you can enjoy for years, whether or not you’re able to keep your other house plants alive! And they’re so beautiful, they’ll make your home look trendy and chic.

Kokedama classes in Sydney

A Kokedama class will teach you all about the mindfulness-based practice of the Japanese moss ball plant. These intriguing plant formations consist of a Kokedama ball that can either be suspended or placed in a decorative plant holder and a range of gorgeous Kokedama plants. Instead of buying one of these gravity-defying plants from a garden shop, this is your chance to get your hands dirty and make your very own Japanese moss ball. You’ll learn the best plants for Kokedama and best practices for how to care for this beautiful plant once you take it home. 

Gardening classes in Sydney

Learning how to garden is an invaluable skill. When you learn how to make a garden bed, how to follow a growing chart, and perhaps even how to harvest your own foods, you foster a connection to nature that will boost your mood and fill you with pride. Gardening courses are some of the best family-friendly things to do in Sydney with kids, in which you’ll learn how to grow herbs, how to look after succulents or other useful gardening skills. Bonsai classes are also popular gardening classes for you to try! If you want a relaxing and rewarding hobby, learning how to make a Bonsai is a great idea.

Health benefits of floristry

Giving yourself the space to learn more about the natural world around you is bound to provide you with an array of health benefits. You’ll feel calmer. You’ll practice gratitude. And you’ll rekindle a connection with nature that makes you feel grounded and self-aware. Flowers and plants classes are a lovely way to tend to our own health and wellbeing.

I would recommend this workshop to everyone!
Nikki is a very talented and passionate florist artist.
She is very knowledgeable and you can tell that she really loves what she does and enjoys sharing it with others.
She provides you with all the materials you need and the end result is absolutely gorgeous, I can’t wait to hang it and have it as a reminder that any day is a good day to pause and do something for yourself.

This was an incredible class, I had so much fun! Nikki gave me the confidence (and the perfect materials!) to put my own spin on the project and I’m so proud of myself for how it turned out. I couldn’t recommend her and her classes more highly!

I enjoyed the class, but now have to decide what to do with the extra plants my daughter bought. It was easy to follow and we could ask questions if needed.
I will add the photos - I could only load one as when I placed the second one in the box, first disappeared.
Thank you

Easy to follow class over Zoom. Chris was friendly and provided plenty of advice and tips to nurture my kokedama baby afterwards. Also showed us examples of what you could do so if you wanted to continue to make more, you could use your new knowledge and skills.

I purchased a private class for my team during isolation and it was fantastic. It ticked the box for my team feeling reinvigorated and doing something to feel connected again. Even though it was online, it still had the feeling like we were all in the studio together which was great. Will definitely be doing this again!

This was so fantastic!! Orla was so lovely to interact with. She was very informative and positive ☺️ The space was fantastic for a private workshop for two and we even enjoyed a peppermint tea whilst we worked. We learnt all about how to care for our new terrariums and what to look out for with them. Amazing value for money! And just so much fun! Thank you to Orla!!! It was even better because of your great help and fun conversation ☺️
