WISDOM FROM
Crafting Connoisseurs UC Irvine alumni Hope Duong and Joelle Sy are the co-founders of The Succulent Scene. They host virtual classes that teach you how to create a succulent terrarium at home.
HOW THEY STARTED …
Sy: We’ve been friends since college, and we just started making succulent terrariums as gifts for our friends. As we graduated, we thought we could spread that joy to other people. We started in 2017, and we teach people how to create terrariums that they will love.
ONLINE CLASSES …
Duong: Before the pandemic, we were doing all in-person events. We really had to adapt to what (was happening in) the world. We were reached out to by someone who was hoping to have a party in person in September … and we decided to make it a virtual event. That really skyrocketed our virtual events. We mail the DIY succulent kits to each participant, and we meet on Zoom. Each kit includes the succulents, sand, decor, a care-instruction card, and building tools.
RAVE REVIEWS …
Sy: I think people really love being able to literally just walk to their fridges or wine coolers and do everything from the comfort of their own homes. I think a lot of people love our choice of succulents. They’re sturdy and don’t need attention. You can really create one of your own original creations with what we offer.
