Make a Kokedama at Home

This is a ClassBento virtual Live/Box class! From the comfort of your home, share an artisan experience with your friends, family or colleagues, or enjoy with like-minded others. Our Live/Box classes have been featured on The Guardian, TimeOut, GQ, Daily Mirror, The Metro, and more. Here's how it works:

1. Book or Request your preferred time
2. We'll deliver a ClassBento Box to you - this is a physical DIY craft kit containing the materials you'll need. Shipping is free, and you'll get your box delivered in time for your class. We ship nationwide.
3. Enjoy the online class. After booking, you'll receive a link to a Zoom meeting. At the time of the class, use that link to join. During the class, you can easily ask questions and get immediate responses. Zoom is free and easy to use, on any device. You're in control of your privacy - you can mute yourself and hide your webcam if and when you prefer.

In need of a lockdown DIY project? Why not introduce a little greenery to your home with a homemade Kokedama?

Kokedama, a Japanese term that translates as “ball of moss”, are small houseplants which grow in a moss-covered ball and often sit on a decorative tray or plates on a table or shelf. They also look gorgeous hanging from the ceiling like little green planets.

If you like getting stuck in, this hands-on beginner’s online class and Kokedame kit could be for you. In your meditative virtual class, our expert florist will introduce you to the art of Kokedama and then guide you step-by-step on how to create a pair of Kokedama using traditional wrapping skills. We’ll also create string supports to help you hang your garden, and share our knowledge of how to care for them.

By the end of your online class, you'll have two beautiful bundles of gorgeous greenery to admire, as well a sense of calm and accomplishment having spent an hour creating not one, but two plant friends! What's not to love?

This Box and Live class is a great indoor activity idea for individuals and couples as well as for virtual team building activities at home. This is a fun indoor activity, suitable for adults, and kids (minimum 9 years old). An adult must be present whilst kid(s) engage with the box.

This would also be a nice gift for her, gift for mum or anniversary gift.
