4 in the class so had a more hands on class with the teacher. Very helpful with good guidance and everything provided. Would make a good gift for a crafty person. My partner enjoyed it too! Street parking outside at the weekend

Aleysha Roughley




We got this as a Christmas present last year and had the most amazing time cooking Japanese street food. Our teacher was wonderful! We will definitely be back for more of his classes.

Cooking class review by Aleysha Roughley - Sydney


Louise Elaine Go




It was a birthday gift for my friend. We really enjoyed the class, although it went overtime for 1 hr. It takes time to learn how to tuft and the Tufting gun is also heavy so you need to rest your arm. Pick a 2D image which is easy to draw. Nothing too complex. Oh and don't choose white, because there's not enough yarn for that. The teacher (Sophia) is very patient. If you're a slow learner like me,  + more

Tufting Class for Beginners review by Louise Elaine Go - Sydney


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

Pizza Masterclass review by Alanna Gomes - Sydney


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.

Glassblowing and Mosaic class review by Kate McAlpine - Sydney


Marie Mir




This was a birthday gift from my sons. I’ve always loved pottery and wanted to give it a try. It’s heaps of fun and very relaxing. I could have pottered all day. The teacher Shinhee, was quick to contact me soon after booking with all the necessary details and her mobile if needed. The studio is easy to find with available parking. You get to make a mug, jug, bowl and vase and then pick one of  + more

Phaedra Ravier




Had an amazing time! It was a Christmas gift from my son, who also participated in the class, which made it doubly special. Our teacher was amazing, so patient and she told us lots of interesting facts. We made pillow cases and found material we really liked which went so well on my couch later on!

Textiles class review by Phaedra Ravier - Sydney


Amanda Kay




We loved our tufting class, a wonderful way to spend a rainy day in Sydney (with a great view of the Chinese Friendship Gardens & close proximity to Chinatown for a meal after all your hard tufting work). Linda was a very helpful teacher, imparting her wisdom and then taking a step back when we felt confident. This is an excellent gift or date idea! Super happy with how our rug turned out and will  + more

Alison Breen




I received a gift voucher for my birthday to Setsuko's ikebana class. My daughter and I attended this today and we both absolutely loved our time with Setsuko. We learned much about ikebana and Setsuko had a wonderful array of flowers and foliage to choose from to make our ikebana arrangements. We took our flowers home with us and they look beautiful. I strongly recommend this class and feel it made  + more

Jacki Heppard




Xmas pressie for family inlc a 90 year old mother who loved it! Christopher fantastic and fun Teacher Would have liked bar stools instead of chairs/list of cocktail ingredients/recipe to take away with us Told about the history of the cocktails which was informative As it was a gift don't know about value, but we enjoyed it, that's the main thing! Could take it at our own pace, Chris was interesting  + more

Cocktail class review by Jacki Heppard - Sydney


Dionne Hunter




The Kids Graffiti Class was a Christmas present for my 8 year old nephew, who has a strong creative drive and loves to draw. The idea was to give him some exposure to other ways of expressing himself through graffiti techniques - and he learnt so much in 90mins! He loved the idea of designing his own spray can and getting to take it home. His dad has now given him a section of the garage wall to use  + more

Painting class review by Dionne Hunter - Sydney


Grace Gilpin




I bought this class for my best friends birthday and can I say it did not disappoint! Polly was an absolute lovely human who taught us all about natural hair care products, essential oils and so so much more. I felt at ease in the classroom (which was beautiful btw) and I loved how passionate she is about natural skincare! It was so worth it, I left feeling inspired to be more natural in the products  + more

Natural Skincare Making Workshop review by Grace Gilpin - Sydney


Rebekah Page




Bought as a gift for my daughter (also bought myself one!) the teachers were helpful and informative. The venue was quaint, the workspace however a little small for each person. We both made two rings one “stacker” ring and then a thicker silver ring. My daughter and I both enjoy crafting classes and this would definitely be one to do again.

Gold or Silver Ring Making Class review by Rebekah Page - Sydney


Rachel Anderson




Cara was an absolute delight! She has so much knowledge and passion for mindfulness and Tea. It is a great combination and lovely way to spend a couple of hours with loved ones. Wasn't sure what to expect but great group of people, great conversation and left feeling rejuvenated. Great idea for a gift and for yourself.

Tea experience review by Rachel Anderson - Sydney


Lilly Zhou




This was the highlight of the year for our family! Wendy kindly offered a session on New Year’s Eve for our daughter’s birthday. Everything was perfect and it’s was an incredible gift for everyone. Wendy was so nice, and her garden was beautiful and peaceful. Words cannot describe how amazing this workshop is and how grateful we are!

Textiles class review by Lilly Zhou - Sydney


Nickolaus Leonardos




I bought this as a gift for Father’s Day to do as an experience with my dad. It was an awesome afternoon learning how to prepare and cook an American style bbq. Food was incredible, the hosts did a great job walking us through it all and have received some Ebooks with all the info so we can have a go smoking some meat at home. Highly recommend!

American Smoking BBQ Class: Centennial Park review by Nickolaus Leonardos - Sydney

Edmund Xian




Great gift “experience” or date idea. Never appreciated flowers until we did this class. Super beginner friendly. Went with my partner. Want to come back again with mum next time. Mini road trip from Sydney. Good spot to get brunch at the cafe next door just before the workshops.
