Beeswax Candle Making Class

I was given the beeswax candle making class as a gift. The instructor was absolutely lovely and very easy to follow. She has an excellent set up in East Maitland and supplied all the materials. I thought the class was really great value for money, a fabulous gift and something I will always remember.

Wheel Throwing Workshop

I booked pottery session at Oops on the occasion of my partner’s birthday and it turned out to be the best gift to him. My partner was truly thrilled and enjoyed the session. Jacqui was incredibly patient in giving us some wonderful and in-depth lessons on pottery. She even offered us wine and crips. For beginners like us Jacqui helped us in making 3-4 very cute pieces. Overall it was a a great value + more

Seafood BBQ Cooking Class

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.

Large Terrarium Making Workshop

This large terrarium class was a gift to my sister and something we have wanted to do for a long time. The class didn't disappoint! We both loved every minute and the teacher was an amazing guide in helping us all create something special. The venue was easy to find and very welcoming. Overall, being able to take our masterpieces home was the highlight and we all felt empowered by the experience.

Gold or Silver Ring Making Workshop

I purchased this class for two as a mother’s day present and it was absolutely wonderful. The teachers Vincent and Izzy were knowledgeable, easily approachable and entertaining. They walked us through each step and assisted where needed in a warm and instructive way. The two rings we got to make and leave with are beautiful and fit amazingly and are personal. Overall it was such a great way to spend + more

Complete Patisserie Skills Course

I was gifted a voucher for Christmas and was very excited to book in to do the Patisserie Course (3 hrs each Monday evening for 3 weeks). Our teacher Ellie was a delight. She patiently took us through each recipe and guided us as we created our own. The venue was great and well equipped with every kitchen/baking utensil known to man. Over the 3 week period we learnt to cook so much including, + more
