Autumn Workshops


So here it is (finally!)...the Autumn Workshop announcement! 

After the success of our summer workshops, we've launched another round in terrarium- and kokedama-making. These will be held at the store on Sundays, and will include a delicious afternoon tea and a goodie bag for participants. The two workshops available are 'Make Your Own Kokedama' and 'Make Your Own Terrarium'. 


Make Your Own Kokedama:

Do you love all things green, growing and mossy and find joy in bringing a bit of greenery indoors? Do you love Mr Sparrow's beautiful hanging kokedama and want to create your own versions? Then this is the class for you! In this hands-on two-hour class you will learn how to create kokedama, Japanese-style growing moss balls. You will be provided with all the materials needed to create your own kokedama on the day, including special soil mixes, moss, a variety of plants and several options for displaying your kokedama. You will leave with your own beautiful kokedama and the skills to make many more! After the workshop is finished, you will be served a delicious afternoon tea and receive a Mr Sparrow goodie bag to take home (all included in the workshop price).

Price: $65
Date: Sunday, 15th April 2012
Time: 10am – 12pm (class #1) OR 1pm - 3pm (class #2) (please specify which class you would prefer)
Where: Mr Sparrow, Shop 3, 223 Bagot Road, Subiaco WA



Make Your Own Terrarium:

Do you love all things green, growing and mossy and long to create little worlds of your own? Do you love Mr Sparrow's cute moss terrariums and want to create your own versions? Then this is the class for you! In this hands-on two-hour class you will learn how to create terrariums incorporating moss and small plants. You will be provided with all the materials needed to create your own terrarium on the day, including a variety of vintage and new glass vessels, different types of moss and plants, pebbles and sweet little hand-made miniatures to dress up your terrarium. You will leave with your own beautiful terrarium and the skills to make many more! After the workshop is finished, you will be served a delicious afternoon tea and receive a Mr Sparrow goodie bag to take home (all included in the workshop price).  Please note, due to the cost of materials involved, we have had to increase the price of our terrarium workshops slightly.

Price: $75
Date: Sunday, 29th April 2012
Time: 10am – 12pm (class #1) OR 1pm - 3pm (class #2) (please specify which class you would prefer)
Where: Mr Sparrow, Shop 3, 223 Bagot Road, Subiaco WA

Sign up on the website, or email me at info[at]mrsparrow.com.au (if emailing, please make sure you specify which class you would like). Bookings are essential and spaces are very limited (I can only fit 8 people in a class and there are only 4 classes, so that's a total of 16 people for terrariums and 16 for kokedama!).

Please note: if you missed out on the last round of workshops and have registered your interest for this round, I will not automatically hold a place for you (as I don't know which class you would prefer). You still need to sign up on the website, or email me as soon as possible to book your place.
