Austin was an incredible host and made our Valentine’s Day truly unforgettable. He guided us through building two beautiful terrariums and was helpful, friendly, and welcoming the entire time.

We had such a lovely time at this place and the host was so nice. I’m happy to report that two years later our terrarium is still doing fantastic. It’s become our little jungle, still healthy and pretty, very low maintenance. Super fun date idea. Pictures are from the day we made it.

Went last night for a date night, it was so cool and fun. I grew up in Lakeland and have watched that antique store go through so many phases and this one is by far my favorite and the coolest the shop has ever been and best it’s looked. Austin was great, super friendly, chill, helpful and laid back. Don’t take your date to a bar take them here!

My wife and I had a great time creating our own terrarium! The owner was super helpful as well in guiding us to make it be sustainable. This is a great and fun activity to do to create something unique and personal. Thanks again for a great experience!

We had such an amazing time! This is the perfect date idea or a fun “sip and play” activity with friends. Austin was a fantastic host—his shop is absolutely adorable! He was incredibly helpful throughout the process, giving us the freedom to be creative while offering guidance when needed. I can’t recommend this experience enough for plant and DIY lovers! The prices are reasonable, all the supplies are provided, and I’m sure you can even bring your own little decor to personalize your terrarium. Highly, highly recommend!
