We could not fault the experience at all,We were greeted warmly on arrival, the team were very helpful and knowledgeable. Adam was bubbly, professional and patient, especially with my partners jokes. We could not fault the experience at all, however there was no check in process to know who was attending and we thought people could potentially take advantage of that. My partner and I wanted a memorable anniversary gift for each other, and that’s exactly what we got. Thank you Vin and Adam!! + more

My wife and I took Rémy's wooden spoon carving class as an anniversary gift, after she had mentioned wanting to get into wood carving one day. From the moment we arrived, Rémy was incredibly welcomingMy wife and I took Rémy's wooden spoon carving class as an anniversary gift, after she had mentioned wanting to get into wood carving one day. From the moment we arrived, Rémy was incredibly welcoming and created such a relaxing atmosphere, sitting around the fire and enjoying tea while we carved. Rémy was a fantastic teacher, guiding us through each step with patience, encouragement, and a genuine passion for the craft. What really stood out was how he went above and beyond to help my wife get started with wood carving beyond the class, recommending books, tools, and other resources she could use on her journey. The four hours absolutely flew by, and I was amazed at how well our spoons turned out by the end. It was a fun, rewarding, and memorable experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in wood carving. You won't regret it! Thanks again Rémy. + more

This was a fantastic experience which was also for a birthday gift! We really enjoyed how Amy explained the history of tea and tips for brewing good tea.

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.
