Booked this as a virtual team bonding activity and we had a great time in our class led by Lauren! Our team is located throughout the US and Brazil and have had issues with shipping to Brazil with past companies but this process was super easy and seamless which we greatly appreciated. Would highly recommend for a fun activity with a cute keepsake!

This was a really fun class and the end result is awesome. The coasters are beautiful and it was great to interact with everyone. The teacher Katherine was very informative but still fun and great to have. Thank you.

We had a wonderful experience with our team building, doing terrariums. We had people all over the world and The Crafty Kit took so much time and care to make sure everyone received a box to enjoy in our team build. Everything was thought of, and great quality. The class was fun and very interactive. My plants arrived in AZ 116 degree heat with no issues at all.

This was such a great way to relax with my team and try something new. I'm not typically a plant lady but having the experience be tied to overall wellness and mental health was unique. I like the idea of caring for the plants as I care for myself.
Our instructor was also very vibrant and friendly. She guided the convo and let us through the process with ease. I also like the care cards that came in the box, the steps are quick and easy. Looking forward to seeing my new plant babies thrive!

I’m not an artist by far am an introvert so I wasn’t sure if I’d enjoy it but I really did. The teacher was really relatable, funny and made it fun. I was actually proud to show my family my wine glass even if it was a bit of a mess. I enjoyed myself a lot.

Katherine led an outstanding terrarium-making session that exceeded my expectations. Her expertise and guidance created an engaging and educational experience.
Right from the start, Katherine's positive mindset and enthusiasm for plant care set a wonderful tone. Her clear explanation of the required supplies and extensive knowledge of succulents were invaluable. We gained valuable insights and tips for their care.
The hands-on portion, guided by Katherine, was enlightening. Exploring the root systems and receiving personalized guidance made the learning process enjoyable. Katherine fostered a supportive environment, encouraging questions and active participation.
I wholeheartedly thank Katherine for her exceptional services and sharing her expertise. This terrarium-making experience was truly remarkable. I eagerly look forward to future learning opportunities under her guidance.

Katherine did an amazing job facilitating my team's hybrid work event! She helped us with some of the difficult logistics of delivering alternative kits to Canada. We made 1 glass mosaic coaster each, and had a nice opportunity to relax and bond over crafts and get our hands a bit dirty!
We all had a great time; thank you Katherine!
Susan Kessler • May 2023
Katherine was an amazing host and we all enjoyed the Mosaic puzzle. She had a great skillset that made the event interesting and fun!
Thank you!

Katherine & Ersin were a dream team. They came early, created a beautiful environment for us to create, provided meaningful and mindful insights during the event, and they cleaned so well that it was as if they had never been there. Would definitely book again!
Shannon Story • May 2023
This was a great experience and activity! I loved being able to embrace my creativity and get out of my comfort zone. I am going to suggest that my book club also do this event together
Joel Bailey • May 2023
Katherine was phenomenal She is so encouraging and a master at her craft. It was such a relaxing time, I’d definitely take another class with her in the future. Highly recommended.
Carly Debartolo • Apr 2023
Katherine was great! The kits came all packaged together which made for super easy set up and Katherine was incredibly knowledgable about not just succulents, but all plants! She gave our team a lot of tips.

Loved our team building session on Terrarium making through ClassBento/The Crafty Kit. Katherine was a great moderator, kept the event going with such a zen vibe. She gave us great information on the succulents we received.
Michelle Mejia • Mar 2023
Fun class! Katherine was an awesome instructor. She really knew her stuff. She made the class informative and fun with her knowledge and personality. I never that making a terrarium could be so much fun!
Dalia Vega • Mar 2023
Good experience. Only thing is it could have been done in half the time.
Neel Gupta • Mar 2023
The instructor was really kind and knowledgeable. Had a blast in the class. The materials mailed were really great quality. I'm so excited about my dino-surfing terrarium. Thanks so much!
Tina Virani • Mar 2023
This workshop was relaxing and so much fun! Taking time out of the busy work day to do this surprisingly helped me reset and gave me a sense of calm. Katherine was really knowledgeable and encouraging, too!
Stephanie Powlin • Mar 2023
I would say that the terrarium-making class itself was a lot of fun (and relaxing). The instructor was friendly, personable, and made sure to engage everyone (plus had some funny plant jokes). The only reason I did not give 5 stars was because the class started 20 min late due to technical difficulties, which is understandable but hard when everyone's time is so valuable. I would recommend this class though - was great as a team-building activity.
Tegan Rosenberg • Feb 2023
I purchased a class as a birthday gift for my granddaughter. We live in MN and we took the class in February. I was concerned about the succulents being shipped and surviving but they made it just fine. We later learned they were packed with heat packs to protect the plant babies. The instructor was engaging and lots of fun. We giggled through our oaths and had a really good time assembling our terrariums. I would definitely do another class with friends and/or family. This was a good experience and an excellent gift for my 12 year old granddaughter!
Rhonda Jones • Jan 2023
Had a good time. I reserved a private terrarium making class for 15 of us and we all enjoyed it. The kit arrived in plenty of time and everything was in great shape. Our instructor, Katherine, was very friendly and covered things at a nice pace, being sure to purposefully pause to make sure everyone was able to follow along. Lots of fun.
Rhonda Jones • Jan 2023
The class was sooo much fun. Katherine was informative and helped me relax since I was very nervous about the activity. By the end I begin to love my terrarium and actually got attached. I even have anale

Super fun wine painting class with my employees… we had a virtual “party” and this was perfect!
Meghan Trout • Nov 2022
Our team had a wonderful time participating in this class. Our host, Avery, was fun, patient and knowledgeable - we couldn't have asked for a better experience! Each member of the team enjoyed themselves and it was great to have a take home that is useful. My team and I wholeheartedly recommend this class.

Another great Class Bento class with Katherine for our remote employee group! We all enjoyed the fun and educational class and are excited to see our herb gardens grow in 6-8 weeks. We'll definitely do this again next year.

Chelsea was a great host! The whole team had a good time during our class.
Emily Warchol • Sep 2022
Had a lovely time at this experience! The instructor was so kind and knowledgeable and created a positive environment. The steps were simple enough to not stress over difficulty over zoom or about time (not rushed). The contents arrived in good condition and were beautiful once put together. It was relaxing to plant and to be creative. It definitely made me want to make more terrariums!
Chelsea • Sep 2022
Our teacher was great! She was super knowledgable about succulents and plants in general. I am not someone who has a green thumb, but I thoroughly enjoyed myself in putting together this terrarium. I just know that it's going to make me smile every time I see it in my kitchen window :) Thanks for putting on such an awesome class!
Mariela • Sep 2022
It was great! Very relaxing! Our instructor was so nice and zen.
Ines Gonzalez • Sep 2022
My team had such a fun time making these cozy blankets even though it was 110 degrees outside! Our instructor Katherine was organized, fun, and patient. Would highly recommend for a team-building event. We did it over zoom with some people in-person in a conference room and others joining from home.

This was a lot of fun and created something very cool for my office.
Aurore Ollivier • May 2022
We had an amazing time! Katherine was fun, knowledgeable and super positive. The team loved the experience and send pictures of their succulents after the event. We would love to do another team building with The Crafty Kit!
