TheAbsolutely loved this class! From start to finish, this was a wonderful experience. Ella was patient, encouraging, and explained every step clearly - making the whole process feel calm and enjoyable. The craft kit arrived beautifully packed with everything you need, and the live class was easy to follow at a relaxed pace. The highlight was seeing the finished glass dome with preserved roses come together - it looks absolutely stunning and I'm so proud of the result! I'd recommend this to absolutely everyone - whether you're a complete beginner, looking for a unique gift idea, or just want a soothing and creative activity. No prior experience needed at all, just show up and enjoy the process. Will definitely be booking another class with Lila's Garden. + more

The teachers gave very good instruction on how to use the tufting gun and made sure to keep an eye out if we struggled plus went over each rug to make sure we were taking home a fluffy rug. This was so much fun and will definitely be doing this again! + more

Not only was the setting beautiful and inviting, but the class was really engaging and everything was explained clearly. Not to mention the gnocchi at the end was heavenly! Wonderful hosts and you felt like you were at a dinner party with friends. We can’t wait to make our own at home and this experience has inspired us to try more classes in the future. It would be a lovely gift for someone too. + more

We had the best time I'm so glad I chose this class! The instructor went at our pace and the process was so interesting to learn. My mum especially loved it she was so relaxed. The concept and the space are well thought out. We got to take home the cutest final products they looked good enough to eat! + more

Our teacher was incredibly sweet, patient, and helpful throughout the session. She paid close attention to what we wanted and guided us step by step in creating our terrariums. She explained the whole process clearly and also shared useful aftercare tips to help us maintain them. There were so many adorable miniature decorations to choose from, and she happily let us decorate our terrariums however we liked. We ended up filling ours with lots of cute miniatures! They also kindly offered us coffee at no extra charge, which made the experience feel even more warm and welcoming. We enjoyed the entire experience so much, and it was even more special getting to take our beautiful terrariums home as a keepsake. It was such a fun and memorable experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a creative and meaningful activity. + more

Best birthday presents for men who love DIY
We have a wide range of DIY workshops that would make the perfect birthday presents for men who love to roll up their sleeves, get their hands dirty and tap into their inner creativity. You might like to challenge stereotypes by signing up the special man in your life for a perfume making workshop in the Melbourne CBD (who says men don’t love having their own signature scent?) It’s the ultimate mindful, relaxing workshop after work or a fun date night idea, where they can unwind the day away surrounded by pleasing, fragrant scents. For the man who loves getting creative with paint, try a resin art or acrylic pouring class in Richmond. Help them express their inner artist and experiment with different colours to create their own unique design.
Our DIY workshops also help them learn something new or explore a craft they’ve always wanted to try. As they get stuck into creating, it helps them slow down and focus on the present, freeing them up to just relax and connect with their loved ones. Our classes are beginner-friendly, which means that anyone can join in on the fun! Whether you’re searching for birthday experiences for him or birthday gifts for women, there’s an art, craft or foodie workshop for everyone in your life.
