Recent reviews of The Botanical Sensory Workshop with Afternoon Tea
- 5/5 from Claire Hill, attended Oct 2026: This was such a fun and relaxing afternoon! It was so nice to slow down, focus on the beautiful scents, and do something for myself. Valerie was lovely and explained things well, setting a calming mood. I can't wait to use my spa scrub!
- 5/5 from Alva Huang, attended Oct 2026: I attended this event as a part of a lovely catch up with my friends from mom's group. Valerie hosted a cosy, intimate event that engaged our senses and gently reminded us to fill our own cups, even as we so often pour into the lives of others around us. The set up was gorgeous, the products smelled amazing and I really enjoyed being creative and having fun in the process. The best part for me is that the final product is something practical that I can take home and continue to use, to refresh my senses and self care. I would recommend this to anyone who is seeking an event that will allow you to recharge and reset.
- 5/5 from Michelle Fowler, attended Oct 2026: It was such a beautiful setup and experience! I absolutely loved exploring all the different scents and getting creative while making my own gorgeous botanical scrub to take home. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to step away from the busyness of everyday life, indulge their senses and enjoy something a little different. Such a relaxing, creative and fun way to spend the afternoon!

Hi, I'm Valerie! I love travelling and discovering new places, but I've realised that sometimes, the best escape is simply slowing down and enjoying the little things. That sparked an idea and that's how Maison Minerals Studio began.I'd love to welcome you to a sensory blending experience where you'll explore natural minerals, discover delicate botanicals, play with colours and textures, and create your very own self-care ritual to take home.Whether you're looking for a little escape, a fun catch-up with friends or something beautiful to do for yourself, there's a place for you here.Come curious. Leave with a little ritual that's uniquely yours.I can't wait to blend with you!With love, Valerie
