Brought the class as a gift for my best friend. We had a fantastic time and leant so much about candle making. We had very different ideas on what we wanted to make and we both love our creation.

Caitlin’s instructional style is clear, casual, & cheerful. We had a blast getting to know her & have her share her creativity with us. We were glad to discover the different techniques, have a play & practice on our aluminium sheet, design our earrings & make them a copper reality. We even wore one of the pairs out to dinner later that evening! The smaller class size was perfect for this workshop - just remember to pace yourself so you have decent time to work on your actual earrings (we got carried away playing with all the tools, stamps, & techniques. So we rushed a little at the end to finish our pieces). The venue is a shared art space, where you’ll enter the gallery/framer at the front & will need to walk towards the studio spaces at the back. This workshop was a surprise for our friend & was the perfect gift for all of us to get hands-on, get creative, & make something we could keep & enjoy (or share as a hand-made gift)! + more

When it comes to celebrating turning 30, a thoughtful experience gift is one way to keep the panic at bay! Help your loved one embrace this new chapter with the excitement and thrill of trying something new.
For the foodie who lives for flavour, cooking classes offer the perfect blend of fun and function. From learning to roll sushi to mastering plant-based feasts, these hands-on sessions are as tasty as they are rewarding, and they add a cute twist to the traditional birthday dinner.
Know someone with a creative streak? Let them get their hands dirty at a mug-making class where they can craft their own cup from scratch. It’s mindful, relaxing and they’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind keepsake to enjoy their morning brew in. It’s a two-for-one gift!
For those with a flair for the finer things, a perfume making workshop is an unexpected delight. They’ll experiment with scents, learn about fragrance families and bottle their very own signature scent, a luxe and personal gift that celebrates their next chapter.
Feeling adventurous? Gift them the thrill of glassblowing, where fire, creativity and a little bravery come together to create beautiful, glowing glass art. It’s a birthday memory they’ll never forget (and neither will their Instagram followers).
And for the proud pet parent, a paint your pet workshop is an absolute win. They’ll turn their beloved dog, cat or bearded dragon into a colourful masterpiece while sipping on their favourite birthday drink.
