Cassandra Cullen




was a Christmas present for my mother and we had a wonderful time, it was a great experience and definitely recommend it for all - it’s definitely beginner friendly. Would love to follow through with another course soon! We learned the basics and fundamentals of what it takes to create most if not all pieces of pottery and had the chance to make a bowl/tray or whatever we wanted.

Introduction to Wheel Throwing Pottery Class: Try the Wheel review by Cassandra Cullen - Canberra


Cate Ruth




My husband gave me a gift card for Christmas. It was super easy to redeem and their were lots of classes with availability. The class was well run with clear instructions. We started with a simple ring to learn the simple techniques, then made a thicker ring which we were able to try stamping and texturing. I was super happy to walk away with two beautiful rings! It would be really lovely to do  + more

Gold or Silver Ring Making Class review by Cate Ruth - Canberra


Debra Evans




I had a great time. My instructor Gaye was so welcoming and very easy to talk to. The experience was a gift from my daughter. Instructions were clear. While some materials were set out ready to begin, we were all encouraged to look at the other options and choose something different if we wanted to. Satisfaction was guaranteed and supply of materials was very generous. I am very happy with my project.  + more

Nisha K




I recently attended a Turkish lamp-making class over a long weekend, which was a thoughtful birthday gift from a close friend. Although there wasn’t a special occasion that weekend, it turned out to be an incredible way to spend my time. The instructor was fantastic—he was kind, patient, and very knowledgeable about the craft. He explained the steps clearly, making sure everyone felt comfortable,  + more

Turkish Mosaic Lamp Class review by Nisha K - Canberra


Leanne Schuhmacher




I went with my mum for a birthday gift making perfumes together, the experience was great. The teacher was very skilled at explaining the process at picking a number of scents for the perfume and how to ratio the oils to make a scent that was truly personal. Picking a bottle was also really fun and the packaging and box complimentary with the experience really topped off the workshop. Definitely a  + more

Victoria Franklin




I did a candle making class with my daughter for a school holiday activity. The venue was bright, airy and clean, packed with the most beautiful assortment of displays and charming gifts. The teachers were extremely welcoming, friendly and accommodating. We were provided with a very large range of materials and options for our project. We were guided with upmost patience and encouragement through the  + more

Jessica Kisiel




I was gifted a tufting session from my family for my birthday & I had so much fun! All materials & tools were provided (they were great quality!), and the teacher was fantastic. Everything was explained so clearly and my finished piece looks absolutely amazing. I can't wait to go back for more! It's a perfect gift idea, date idea, something fun to do with kids or even solo.

Tufting Class for Beginners review by Jessica Kisiel - Canberra


Antonia Losanno




Brilliant class. Bron was great. A great gift for anyone wanting to give pottery a go.


Martha Griffiths




My granddaughter thoroughly enjoyed this class. Gay was very patient and encouraging and the result was two wonderful art works. I will definitely get another gift voucher in the future.


Elle Henderson




My sister and I took part in the perfume making class. It’s was so wonderful to learn how a perfume is constructed and the care it takes. Such an easy class to be apart of, as our teacher went through everything before we started and was able to guide us during. I thought I was going to be overwhelmed with the amount of scents but your nose and brain will tell you what you like. Comes packaged with you own label and gift box. 10/10 experience.


Anna Reibelt




This class was a birthday gift to me from my husband, and my teenage daughter also enrolled in the class. We had a great time and now I have a lovely lamp for my study! The teacher was helpful and kind. I would recommend this class - you don't need to be super-artistic to end up with a great looking lamp.


Alexander Stewart Battarbee




I was given this class through a gift voucher and I found it to be an enlightening and engaging experience. Margaret was encouraging and direct, providing excellent instruction in the technical detail of painting. Lessons began with colour mixing, to learn to make any colour shade from the basic colours, with the following weeks focusing on water colour, oil painting techniques, and drawing in perspective. Margaret provided access to high quality materials, which provided an excellent platform to learn. I ultimately found the class to provide excellent  + more


Laura Eason




I revived this course as a birthday present and had never heard of Margaret or the artists shed before starting! What a fabulous introduction to painting. We covered a lot and I also walked away with some lovely art pieces that have inspired me to keep painting/drawing. Will definitely be doing more classes with Margaret in the future :) Thanks so much for a great four weeks Laura


Leanne O'Callaghan




Would recommend doing this pottery session. Was extremely therapeutic and fun. Amy the facilitator was very helpful and supportive. My husband and I received this as a Christmas gift and enjoyed it immensely.


Matias Kewe




Lucy was great! The tour was great! The tour flew by and I learnt so much. As a person that identifies as male but is curious to know more about this Capital of ours, I'm supremely glad I took the time to partake in this activity. I was gifted this experience as a gift and immediately upon finishing it I was wondering who I could gift it to in turn. Many thanks to the She Shapes History, it's so great to be witness people people share their passion. I rate this tour a Canberra must-do.


Moira Byrne




Well-prepared, patient, encouraging teachers. Lovely finished products with packaging ready for gift giving. A great time! Thank you so much.


Cathy Zanella




I purchased as Xmas gift for husband. He loved it! Mick (teacher) was very encouraging. Hubby is colour blind and doesn’t do much in the way of creative art. He found it relaxing and lots of fun, using the paints and his hands as the tools. Highly recommend


Georgina Lane




I bought a voucher for two teenage girls and they absolutely loved the class. It was fun and engaging and they met crafty, like minded people of all ages. Gorgeous little space full of good vibes and creativity. The teacher was fantastic and we can’t wait to see the end result! Nothing but love, great bday gift
