About This Event
Create your own tiny underwater world in glass in this creative, hands-on workshop where art meets nature. You’ll design a miniature bottle necklace filled with real freshwater aquatic plants, a living ecosystem you can wear, while learning the basics of how these tiny environments function and thrive. Customize every detail, from bottle shape (round or teardrop) and gold or silver chain to chain length, sand and crystal base, and your choice of live plants (süsswassertang, cladorphora, or both).
