Emily Deng
Freeform Clay Hand Building Class - Private
We contacted Bettina because we wanted to make a personalized housewarming gift for our friend. Bettina was warm, welcoming and extremely helpful. She gave us individual attention and tailored her instructions to our projects. She even gave me a different type of clay that would dry faster, since my project was thicker and larger than my friend's. The space was homely, she offered us tea and coffee + more
Pat Jukes
Luxury Natural Perfume Masterclass
This was a Christmas gift from our dad. Our teacher Jessica was lovely, warm and friendly. Jessica even arrived with some pastries that was a beautiful gesture thank you. We had a private home experience which was lovely. We learnt so much about how perfume has base, middle and top lays and how these make the smell of the perfume. The oils were so beautiful to smell and even funnier was the fact that + more
Alex Mansfield
Glass Blowing Class for Beginners: Taster
Steve and I were given this class as a gift from our son. It was fabulous to experience something completely different, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Mark was very knowledgeable and definitely made glass blowing look easy! We came away with the pieces we made and they will be a lovely memento of a fun afternoon. Thoroughly recommended!
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
Hayley Matevski
Clay and Sip Wheel Throwing Pottery Class
This was a shared birthday gift for me and my mum. We had a great time. Teacher was lovely and informative, and very present with everyone - guiding them through the process whilst also allowing the freedom of good old trial and error. With unlimited clay attempts you really didn't fear going for it and trying again, and two hours felt like the perfect amount to end up with a decent item (or two) that + more
Paul Peterson
Watercolour Painting Class: Impressionist Style
"The best birthday gift I've ever had!" said my girlfriend after Tony's painting class. We were both absolute beginners and Tony patiently taught us the basics in a fun, educational, and hands-on way. He is both an expert and a natural motivator and his sunny artist studio was just a relaxing space to be inspired. I have no doubt he has lots to offer experienced painters, but if you're a beginner look + more
Maria Ryan
Perfume Making Class: Make Your Own Signature Scent
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
Evelyn Chan
Hand Crocheting Workshop: Shoulder Bag
A gift for a friend, Very easy to understand for beginners and she was lovely teaching us with care and making sure it looked nice at the end.
Marie Mir
Wheel Throwing Class for Beginners
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
The Ashleys
Ikebana Flower Arranging Class
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
Claudine Joy Regpala
Resin Art Class: Cheeseboard and Coasters
I booked for 2 people for this class. A lovely and unique birthday gift for my mum visiting from overseas. We pleasantly enjoyed our time and really appreciated our instructors efforts.
Joanna Klein
Wood Burning Workshop: Cheeseboard
This was a fantastic class. Maria was an excellent teacher, the venue was perfect, and my friend and I came away with beautiful boards we were proud to have made in the class, one being a wedding gift for a friend. If you have been thinking about trying this I really recommend you jump in and give it a try! Im looking forward to returning another time. Thanks Maria :)
Joanne Froio
Pottery Wheel Class: Make and Paint Ceramic Plates
We had a wonderful experience with Bettina, I bought this as a Christmas gift for my family and we loved it. Bettina gave us the option to change our designs and ad colour using the spinning wheel. It was a great way to spend time with my husband and daughters and highly recommended it.
Marie Rabaja
Tufting 101 Class: Create Your Own Custom Rug

Lauren Powe
Resin Serving Board and Coasters Class
Chelsey was a bubbly, fun and experienced teacher who ensured everyone was cared for. She encouraged us to let out our inner creative, but also ensured we ended up with an AMAZING final product! Such a fun birthday gift idea, would definitely recommend if you want something that's beautiful and functional
Marilena Montuoro
Art-Inspired Flower Arranging Class: Art Blooms
This amazing gift was purchased for my mother and mother in law for mother’s day and it was honestly the highlight of our weekend. Nikki was such a lovely host and very knowledgeable. She took the time to answer any questions we had about florals that didn’t necessarily relate to the class but were just curiosities. We attended the class within her beautiful backyard which was covered in gorgeous + more
Edmund Xian
Seasonal Vase Arrangement Workshop
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.
Christina Tsangaris
Pottery Wheel Throwing Class: Make a Ceramic Piece
This class was absolutely amazing! I brought this experience as a gift for my cousins birthday and we wasn't expecting much but were sooooo impressed. George was such a fun, attentive, informative and humorous teacher Would highly recommend. I am thinking of purchasing another gift for my auntie and her husband for sure. Thank you so much for the experience
