Such a great class and absolutely gorgeous atmosphere! I really liked how much independence we were given. It felt like we were given complete creative freedom and we never felt rushed. It was a birthday gift for my mum and she really enjoyed it. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience!
Shanil Nanayakkara • Apr 2021
This was a present to my mum from my wife and daughters - a girls' outing. They all had an amazing time and were really happy with the teacher, and the time taken to ensure their lamps were perfect. Well worth the money, and highly recommended.

This was a Xmas gift from my daughter and she got it spot on (as usual). I loved the class; Rachel was an awesome teacher, the room was well set out as was the class. It was lovely to spend the time learning something new and making new friends. I love my board and would recommend this class to all.

Received this voucher as a Christmas gift - love it! A great way to spend an afternoon, and a different type of activity to do. Nice open space as a venue. Good handout and all the tools required. Roxanna wandered around and gave instruction and encouragement as required. Can’t wait to get our silver rings back in a few weeks and to see how they turned out!
Shakira Branch • Mar 2021
Thank you so much for such a wonderful class. I purchased this for a graduation present for my friend & I to do together, and it was so nice to get creative and switch off for the night. And thank you to Liana for teaching us such great watercolour skills - you are an excellent teacher

We loved every minute of Hitomi’s class; Hitomi is a beautiful person and wonderful teacher! Followed by a delicious lunch at a nearby Japanese restaurant, we had the perfect day immersed in the inspiring Japanese culture. Furthermore, our Kintsugi plate is a treasured memory of our wonderful day spent together, a fun, mindful hands-on experience, and an exquisite ongoing reminder of our personal growth! + more

The class was very informative and you learn how to make the two most ordered cocktails. You make the first cocktail, they feed you, and then you make the second one, and they feed you again! The food was good too (tacos, chips, grilled corn etc.). Definitely a good present for someone that loves their cocktails, or just want to learn the basics on how to make them.

Fantastic lesson with very experienced and talented teacher. This art form takes a lot of practice to perfect. Clear and concise instructions, easy to follow. Venue easy to find.

Enjoyed the class which was practical and the presenter gave great tips and was very approachable too!

This morning I had a class with Yoko and it was just perfect. I learned about art (Kintsugi) and made my own beautiful mended plate. The kit was very good quality and well put together. I loved the end product and the experience of making it too. I highly recommend the class and it was a great choice of gift from a special friend. Yoko is so patient and great at explanation of each step.

The studio itself was beautiful and the atmosphere created by the owners with; *authentic Turkish lamps, bowls, statues scattered around the room * Traditional Turkish and calming popular music in the background * Turkish tea and a sweet treat provided during your design and making All this also allowed for a working space for everyone to relax, be creative, chat and enjoy the experience! I highly recommend this workshop for anyone who wants to give a gift to themselves or friends or to just try something new and mindfulyou will not be disappointed! + more

My daughter and I spent a thoroughly enjoyable few hours under Yoko's expert tutelage learning the art of Kintsugi. We were both so impressed by Yoko’s gentle guidance, depth of knowledge and most of all, attention to detail (right down to the green tea and lolly that came in our respective boxes!).

I would never consider myself as ‘arty’ however that was OK and to be honest I found the experience convivial, relaxing, connecting, meditative and of course, informative. This was a beautiful gift as I was able to spend quality zoom time with my daughter (currently in the Melbourne lockdown) from our family home in regional NSW. 10/10 would recommend, particularly to other parents missing spending time with their young adult kids at the moment. + more

Exceptional value for money. We learnt about the history and production process for rum, and then made two cocktails step by step. So smoothly run, exceptional drinks and the plentiful food provided (at two different points in the workshop) was a highlight. This was a birthday present for me and it was such a lovely way to spend the evening. Thanks Brix

Brilliant gift idea from my daughter. Absolutely loved the class. Fran provided great face to face tutoring via Zoom and communicated well before hand to ensure I had everything I needed to make my beeswax wraps. Beautiful cotton fabrics and wax mailed ahead of time. Super easy, a lot of fun and Fran is a brilliant teacher! Made 3 beautiful wax wraps, great value. Thank you

We had the best experience with our teacher. Unfortunately due to COVID our Bento box was a little delayed in arriving to Tasmania. But our teacher was so accommodating in rescheduling until the box arrived. This was a Mother’s Day gift for my Nan. She has the best time creating the hanging planters. With a teacher who was very kind and patient teaching an old girl new tricks. Thanks so much forWe had the best experience with our teacher.

My daughter Lucinda did the course together! Was her First Mother’s Day present to her. I was surprised how much we achieved in 2 hours . Great clear instructions. Would have liked if the instructor could have zoomed in but know not possible. I made my gumnut picture into a birthday card for my son in law. He wants to frame it ( I said not that good)!

Niki is an excellent teacher. I loved this class and would recommend to others. I can understand why the practice would be meditative. Thanks Niki for sharing your gift of Zentangle with the world.

Anyone Can do Brush Lettering Workshop
This was my first experience with Class Bento and with brush lettering. At first I was a bit unsure about going but I’m so glad I did.

I appreciate that she’s also quite environmentally conscious and she donated the profits of this workshopThis was my first experience with Class Bento and with brush lettering. At first I was a bit unsure about going but I’m so glad I did. Vanessa was a wonderful teacher and made everyone feel welcomed and relaxed. She demonstrated each skill and then spent considerable time assisting every student. I appreciate that she’s also quite environmentally conscious and she donated the profits of this workshop to helping wildlife affected by the bushfires. We first learnt about creating a lovely range of colours with our water colour palette. Then we learnt to create strokes which we later combined to form letters and words. All the materials were provided for and we got to take home our brushes, palettes, watercolours and worksheets so that we have everything to continue practising our new skills at home. The class is held in an airy, bright and air conditioned private room behind a cafe. Not familiar with the area I found it hard to park so perhaps leave extra time to park if you’re driving there. Thanks for the lovely class, gift and snacks Vanessa! Hope to attend another one of your classes in future. + more

We also want to make sure everyone in Australia can enjoy our birthday experiences. With in-person classes in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and Gold Coast, our online classes are becoming really popular for those of you who prefer to take part from the comfort of your own home or for those who might be living more remotely. This means everyone can join our classes as long as you have an Internet connection! Give your loved on the ultimate birthday gift experience by teaming up a private class with family and friends they may have not seen for a while.

We’ll simply send out a DIY kit so you’ll receive the exact same tools and materials you would have been given if you attended the class in person. Just imagine the priceless look on the birthday boy or girl when they log on to find everyone waiting for the class to begin!
Unique birthday gifts for her
With plenty of unique birthday gifts for her to choose from, some of our most popular classes for women include DIY candle kits. Learn to take your home to the next level by learning to make beautiful soy candles so you can turn your home into a cosy, zen space in the evening. This is a fun, affordable way to update your home, especially if you’re working from home, without having to spend much money.
Our terrarium classes are also incredibly popular amongst both women and men. We’ve all wondered how to make a terrarium and as they do you look tricky, as long as you have the right materials and an excellent teacher, anyone can learn to make them. We have both in-person and online terrarium classes to choose from which make one of the best birthday gifts for her. Imagine how proud she’ll feel when she’s created her own little jungle from scratch to sit proudly on her work desk?
Unforgettable birthday present ideas for men

Take his cooking skills to the next level as he learns how to smoke meats properly on the barbie. He’ll love this BBQ class which can be taken in person or online as he’ll be gloating all the way when he holds his next BBQ at home. When friends and family ask him for tips and tricks for perfecting their skills, he’ll be able to teach them as our expert teachers have taught him.
Our cocktail making classes are also super popular birthday experiences for both men and women. With both in-person and online cocktail making classes to choose from, he’ll love learning how to make easy cocktails at home. Our local Australian expert mixologist will teach him how to make three cocktails and he’ll learn the secrets for creating excellent cocktails he can make for friends and family in the future.
