What to expect

Our Kokedama Workshop is held in our dedicated basement workshop space at Between Two Thorns, 91 Trafalgar Street, Brighton.

Please note that access to the workshop is via stairs only, as the workshop is located downstairs.

We kindly ask that you arrive 5–10 minutes before the start time so we can begin promptly and make the most of our time together.

The workshop is split into two parts:

🌱 Part 1 – Creating the Soil Mix and building your Kokedama
Learn how to blend the specialist substrates used to create the perfect bonsai soil for your Kokedama. Shape the soil around your chosen plant and wrap it in moss to create your own beautiful living moss ball.

🧶 Part 2 – Making a Macramé Hanger
Learn how to create a simple twine macramé hanger so you can proudly display your finished Kokedama at home.

By the end of the workshop, you'll leave with a handmade Kokedama, a macramé hanger, and the knowledge to care for your creation for years to come.

Cancelation Policy

Cancelation Policy

You can cancel for a full refund up to 7 days before the event. Please email enquiries@betweentwothorns.com to do so

If you have to cancel within 7 days for ANY reason, then we will try and re-sell your tickets. If they do not sell, then we will be unable to book you onto another workshop or issue a refund. We know this sounds harsh, but unfortunately we are a small business, we will have bought fresh materials for the workshop and they will simply go to waste if you are unable to attend. However we do have a brilliant solution - which is that we would be happy to make you up a terrarium that you would have made for you to collect at your leisure! OR we can provide you with all the materials and lend you the tools for you to create your own terrarium at home, so you will not miss out.

We reserve the right to cancel the workshop at any time. In this case you will be issued a full refund or offered another workshop time.
