Terrarium Workshops in Delhi & Gurgaon
Get your hands dirty and build your own living ecosystem. Join me for an afternoon to switch off, learn, and take home a piece of nature.
This poster from our collaboration with SOCIAL gives you an idea of our public workshops. We partner with vibrant cafes and studios across Gurgaon and Delhi to create a relaxed, fun, and social atmosphere for you to learn and create in.
We partnered with Amala Earth for a creative afternoon with plants. This video shows participants building their mini ecosystems, making it a perfect activity for loved ones to connect and create together in a mindful space.
There's a special kind of calm that comes from getting your hands dirty. This is what my workshops are all about: a slow, mindful process where you can switch off and create your own living ecosystem. You don't need any experience, just a willingness to connect with nature.
A quick look at the fun and creative energy from our terrarium workshop at Fort City Brewing in Delhi. It's always amazing to see people enjoying the process and leaving with their own handcrafted green worlds.
The atmosphere at our workshop with Fort City Brewing was buzzing with creativity. I love guiding people as they choose their plants and design a terrarium that reflects their own personal style. Everyone walks away with something they are proud of.
This was the announcement for our hands-on workshop at Alive Studio in Gurgaon. These posters provide all the details you need to join us for an afternoon of connecting with the earth and building your own terrarium.
A call to action from one of our studio workshops. The focus is always on the tactile experience of building something with your hands, a process that helps you switch off from screens and engage your creative side.
About this collection
In these sessions, we focus on the architecture of a living jar. You will learn the science of substrate layering—why charcoal, sand, and soil need to sit in a specific order—to ensure your plants don't just survive, but thrive long after you leave the studio.
It is not just about the final glass jar; it is about the process of slow, mindful creation. During our 3-hour sessions, I guide you through the basics of building a closed terrarium, which is a self-sustaining environment that mimics a miniature forest. We use tropical favorites like Fittonias, Ferns, and live moss, selecting them specifically for their love of humidity and indoor resilience.
Most participants arrive worried they lack a green thumb, but I promise the main skill you need is actually restraint. Most plants die because of too much love, or as I like to say, adding thoda sa pani (a little bit of water) when they do not need it. We will cover the specific care tips for Delhi and Gurgaon weather to ensure your creation stays vibrant.
Whether you are coming alone to de-stress, on a creative date, or with a group of friends, the goal is simple. You walk in with an empty container and walk out with a thriving ecosystem you built yourself. All materials, from the tools and substrate layers to the plants and decorative miniatures, are provided. Just bring yourself and a willingness to get a little messy.

I am Deepika, and I started ByTheLeaf because I believe plant care is a form of therapy. These workshops aren't just about building a terrarium—they're about slowing down, unplugging, and creating something you can actually keep alive.
