Weekend workshop
"MAKE YOUR OWN PLANTER"
Do you often bring home new plants? Whether they are from plant swaps or just were for "irresistible" prices, your new additions need to be replanted.
I admit that I don't like plastic planters too much, so I hide them right after bringing them home or I transplant the plant into something more pleasing to the eye.If you have it like me, I invite you to a weekend workshop to make your own original planters.
The weekend course will be intense, because it is 2 days in a row, but also relaxing thanks to the work with clay. Ceramic offers a similar experience that people look for when baking bread or gardening, the so-called mental rest, when they see something new and, above all, something being created under their hands.
