The cooking class was a birthday present for my husband. He loved it very much. We both learnt new techniques how to peel prawns and how to cook snapper on bbq. The squid salad was also amazing. Loved the spices which were added. We bought some too for our use at home.

Linda Rowntree




A great gift from my son! Pam was a very lovely and efficient teacher. She demonstrated very clearly and redemonstrated when needed. Materials were high quality. We all walked away with new skills and an accomplished art work

Georgia Alikaris




This was a surprise gift for myself and my two besties from my husband. The location is easy find, with lots of parking and close to the train station, great explanation from the teacher and quite easy to learn. I wish there was a greater variety of neutral tone yarn but the variety of bright colours is awesome. The girls and I had so much fun and our designs turned out awesome. It's best to pick  + more

Rebeka Ryding




When I opened the box, I was happy to see the quality of materials provided is excellent. The kit includes everything you need to get started right away, no rummaging for tape or pencils, literally everything is here. The silk had been cut to the right size and even the frame had been taped up ready for me, I was pleasantly surprised by the care that had gone into creating the kits. Speaking of which,  + more

We had the best time. I bought this gift as a Mothers Day present for my mum, my mother-in-law and myself. The food was great, the cocktails were delicious and the dumpling making class was so much fun. Can’t wait to make them now at home. Thank you

Sharon Cottle




It was a gift from my family. My teacher was very good she answered all my questions and went out of the way to show me more. I learnt some new tips and tricks which will be helpful in my sewing.

Melissa Cowley




This was a gift for my Dad. We both enjoyed the workshop, following instructions, and learning in a practical, hands on way. We have both been able to take what we learnt at this workshop and apply it to make more Kokedamas at home. Our Kokedamas (that we made at the workshop) are still going strong a month later.

Creative Kokedama Workshop review by Melissa Cowley - Brisbane


Genevieve Cowie




We had great fun at this class, got a good few handy chef tips and made a delicious meal. Tracy and June were lovely and we learnt a lot. We’ll certainly be making scrumptious gnocchi at home - especially now we understand the joys of a potato ricer and the importance of hot potatoes! The cooking class was a Christmas gift to my husband and we had a great night out together - a gift that gives t  + more

Cooking class review by Genevieve Cowie - Melbourne


Maria Ryan




The perfume-making class was a gift from my husband. I am obsessed with perfumery and has a reasonable knowledge about the subject. I thought that I may not learn anything new. Gosh I was wrong! Louella is a fun and engaging teacher and very knowledgeable about the science and history of perfumery. We had lots of laughs. I enjoyed it immensely and have been recommending the class to my friends. I  + more

I gave this pizza class to my partner as his bday present and we love it. We did the dough, next step we did our own pizza was an amazing experience. The group was also nice and we share our experiences with other couples that attended the class. Looking forward to invite some friends over for pizza night

Kate McAlpine




I received a gift card for the Level 1 class as a Christmas present and had a fantastic time! Mark was a great teacher and it was a very enjoyable. I have zero experience in any artwork and wasn’t sure what to expect - turned out to be really fun to experiment and make some colourful glass creations.

We came to Not Yet Perfect on a Christmas Present Gift card for my Daughter. Tess was wonderful! She explained the process really clearly and then was present to assist but not take over It was a really fun morning and definitely a little addictive!

Pottery class review by Ryan Munyard - Perth


Hannah Belonio




Attended the solid perfume making workshop as a gift to a friend and we loved it. It was so fun learning about how perfumes are made and building our own scents! Especially love how they save our scent and we have the choice of recreating it with other forms like candles and perfume (spray version). We definitely would go back again. The instructors were friendly and knowledgeable and provided clear  + more

The friendly and informative class was amazing, the time just flew by. Tanya was so knowledgeable and had a great set up in a relaxing venue. So much variety in the plants and decorations we had on hand. It was the best gift from my son and was able to take my sister for some quality fun time. Came away from the experience so positive and with a beautiful terrarium that I made myself. So looking forward  + more

Kelsey Gardner




My boyfriend and I went to Japan in October and absolutely loved the food there so we were beyond excited to learn how to make very common dishes with Chef Keita. Chef Keita provided us with knives, cutting boards, and ingredients, so we didn't have to bring anything except ourselves. He was very patient with us if we had any questions and helped us if needed. We learned how to make about 6 or 7 dishes  + more

Kate Fiumara




I bought this as a Christmas present for my Dad and he really loved it! Nathan was a fantastic teacher, he was able to explain and correct us so that we both learned a lot by the end of the lesson. We had both gone from being able to make weird blobs of milk by accidence to understanding the basics of and being able to do some very pretty latte art. Thanks so much Nathan we had a fantastic mornin  + more

The Ashleys




This class was a pre-COVID gift and Setsuko has been wonderful in allowing us to reschedule a few times. She is so generous in sharing her knowledge and skills. We had a lot of fun creating our arrangements and learning how to improve them. There was a wonderful variety of flowers to choose from so our creativity was truly fostered. I would have loved to have been able to take the arrangements home  + more
