Cultivating Memories: Building Your Secret Garden - May 7, 2026 530pm

When: May 7, 2026, 530-7pm

Where: Stonehouse on Hale - 126 N. Hale Street, Wheaton IL 60187

Step into a garden you create with your own hands.

Inspired by The Secret Garden, this immersive Stonehouse experience invites you to slow down, gather, and build something meaningful, rooted in memory, story, and quiet beauty.

At the center of the evening is the creation of your own living terrarium. Guided step-by-step, you’ll design and build a miniature garden using thoughtfully selected plants, natural elements, and textures. Along the way, we’ll invite you to incorporate a small personal object or photo, something that holds meaning, transforming your terrarium into something entirely your own.

This is not just a workshop. It’s a moment to reconnect with creativity, with memory, and with the simple act of making something that lasts.

Surrounded by dimmed lights, layered textures, and the quiet rhythm of the shop after hours, you’ll sip, create, and gather in a space designed to feel like a true retreat.

You’ll leave with something beautiful in your hands and something meaningful to carry forward.

Each guest will receive:

• A complete terrarium kit

• Hands-on, guided instruction throughout the entire build process

• A personalized terrarium design experience, including how to incorporate a meaningful object or memory

• A take-home care guide to ensure your garden continues to thrive
  

• Wine, mocktails, and thoughtfully paired bites

• A private, after-hours shopping experience

Please bring one small meaningful item, photograph, or keepsake to inspire your terrarium. Reserve your place soon—seating is limited.
