Just in time for some Christmas fun, in this workshop you will make Kokedama, the crafty botanical sensation from Japan! Kokedama (苔玉, in Japanese) literally means "moss ball" and involves encasing soil in moss, then wrapping the moss with string or fabric. During this workshop you will immerse yourself into the calming and therapeutic process of creating your own Kokedama, taking you away from the worries of the world, being present in the moment and enjoying the process of the perfect combination of nature and craft. You will choose a suitable plant and learn a failsafe technique to build up the root ball with a selection of suitable soils, learning how to wrap neatly with twine. By the end of this workshop, you will know how to make and care for Japanese kokedama and have made a kokedama to take home. This workshop is suitable for teenagers, accompanied by mum, dad or another adult guardian, who has also paid to attend the workshop.About the Facilitator
