Recent reviews of Terrarium Workshop

  • 5/5 from Jason Qin, attended Dec 2025: We came here for a work Christmas activity and we had a nice time. Our teacher, Jasmine, was very friendly and helpful throughout the session. Was great that we could be creative with the clay figures to add a more personal touch to the decorating.
  • 4/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Nov 2024: It was good but there wasn't much of a variety of decorations or plants
  • 4/5 from Micky Driscoll, attended Jun 2024: Lovely quiet space. Really lovely teacher. Very accommodating. Was great to combine some clay work into my terrarium.
  • 5/5 from Zupinder Billing, attended Mar 2024: It was a Team Building activity Teacher was lovely and led the activity well Venue was very cool and appropriate Everything was good - would have liked some better plant options Enjoyed spending time with my team doing something mindful yes good value for money we had a big terrarium to take home at the end playing with the clay and making something for the terrarium
  • 5/5 from Stephanie Waters, attended Dec 2023: The workshop was a success. I arranged it for my team and they loved every moment.
  • 4/5 from Glenn Wilkinson, attended Oct 2023: Facilitator was friendly, helpful and made some good creative suggestions. Good variety of materials. Venue was well located and spacious - a little dimly lit for the exercise. Terrariums themselves were generous in size and plenty of time was allowed to complete them. Overall I'd consider this good value for money & would recommend as a team building exercise.
  • 5/5 from Bernice Tan, attended Aug 2023: The teacher was nice and friendly. The activity was really fun, would definitely do it again! I would also recommend it to friends and family :)
  • 4/5 from Dee Ma, attended Apr 2023: my team had a great time doing this class together; they were encouraged to be creative and using their own imagination. Great environment too.
  • 5/5 from William Sykes, attended Dec 2022: Had a blast creating my own personal wonderland (terrarium). This class was fun and let your creativity run wild.
  • 5/5 from Michelle Peate, attended Dec 2022: It was a fabulous team bonding event - everyone enjoyed the experience and appreciated having something to take home. I recommend bringing a bag with you to take you terrarium home in.
  • 5/5 from Inthujaa Paramasivan, attended Nov 2022: Great set up for the class The bar was quaint Great instructor with lots of cool tools and equipment Good amount of time to do activity and relax
  • 1/5 from Janice Wong, attended Oct 2022: Artea has a nice ambience for a party. But the actual terrarium workshop was underwhelming, disappointing and overpriced for what was supplied. The plants were literally garden scraps - like someone had weeded out the ugliest stems to throw out on green rubbish day. Not fresh and not a single root attached to the plants…looks like the plant will barely survive. The 2-hour class was only a 5-min spiel with limited guidance, after which the instructor disappeared. You’re paying for the Artea ambience. Much more worthwhile to get beautiful plants from Bunnings and DIY. Please save your money and go elsewhere.
  • 5/5 from Nickki Phothitay, attended May 2022: Great teacher, great venue, very fun and informative! Bride to be had a great time
  • 5/5 from Camille Willats, attended Apr 2022: It was a relaxing afternoon & venue was great. We ordered a grazing platter which I would definitely do again. Class was perfect for a beginner like myself & teacher was knowledgeable and very helpful. I look forward to doing more classes at ARTea Art School!
  • 5/5 from Jennifer Watt, attended Apr 2022: Really loved the terrarium class. Nice people, teacher was knowledgeable and plenty of instruction. Nice having the bar at the venue which we made use of.
