DIY Workshop | Build Your Own Ant Nest
More than keeping, it's creating. Here you'll design and build a one-of-a-kind ant kingdom with your own hands, and feel the fun and satisfaction of being its creator.

No experience needed! Build your own ant nest and take home a unique creation that’s sure to get people talking. Turn imagination into something real, and feel where life and art meet as you create and observe.

100% your own design
From chamber layout and tunnel routes to exterior decoration, every detail is yours to shape. The result will be a creation unlike any other in the world, made entirely by you.

Expert guidance throughout
Whether you’re new to crafting or a seasoned ant keeper, our expert instructors are on hand with ant ecology knowledge and building tips to make sure your creation is both beautiful and practical.

High-quality, safe materials
We provide a range of tested, ant-safe professional materials (such as plaster, acrylic and special sands and soils), so your ant companions can settle in with peace of mind.
