Create your own piece of natural wall art in our immersive moss-making class held in the heart of Coal Drops Yard. Hosted by Botanical Boys, this hands-on workshop invites you to design a beautiful framed preserved moss artwork using sustainably sourced bun moss and sheet moss.
You’ll learn about:
  • The difference between preserved moss types, including bun and sheet moss
  • Techniques for layering textures and mounting moss into wooden frames to create hills and valleys
  • Application of wood and bark and dried mushrooms
Our tutor will guide you through our moss-inspired Kings Cross studio and show you how versatile our preserved moss is used in design pieces. Then you’ll be seated in our calming workspace and step-by-step you’ll design a tactile, 3D mossscape to take home — perfect for bringing a calming, biophilic touch to any interior.
No watering. No maintenance. Just pure, natural beauty.

RHS Chelsea Flower show Gold & Silver medalists:
The Botanical Boy started their green adventures back in 2009 while moving into East London. They renovated a water garden with no prior experience and fell in love with plants. They dove headfirst into the books and learned all they could about pruning and planting. After their first year, they were asked to join The National Garden Scheme, opened their garden to the public and learned useful tips from other fellow gardeners.
Inspired by their garden, they discovered a liking for succulent plants and container gardening in South Africa. This led them to make more and more terrariums and shared them with their friends. They soon found that everyone loved terrariums, and they started a class in their own dining room.
They love connecting people to nature and seeing their students discover their green thumbs brings the Botanical Boys so much joy and happiness. They quit their full-time jobs and started a trendy botanical shop near Kings Cross. They believe that connection to the natural world is crucial in a fast-paced world, and plants can help people slow down.
They have been featured on the BBC Great British Garden Revival, The Sunday Times, Abigal Will's The New London Garden book amongst other publications.
