Natalie Doherty
Kintsugi Workshop for Beginners
This was a fabulous way to learn about the philosophy of Kintsugi and the culture of Japan. Jun and Mahitme were wonderful to listen to and learn from. I loved learning the art of kintsugi and taking home a beautiful creation on top of all of that! This would be a fantastic gift idea as well.
Adeline Yanuar
Large Terrarium Making Workshop
I had an awesome time making my 1st terrarium today. 2 hours went so quick. Anita was amazing, she provided great advice and ideas on the landscape. You can tell she is very passionate in what she does. The choice of plants, rocks and figurine are plenty. We did it in her shop where she sells lots of cute and interesting things that you can add to your terrarium, the options are endless. Ample of parking. + more

Ceramic Mug and Spoon Making Workshop
Birthday gift from my grandson who came along with other family. We all thoroughly enjoyed the creative process, making and painting a mug and spoon. Hannah was a patient and terrific teacher, demonstrating step by step at an easy to follow pace. The materials were all provided in a well set out studio. Very therapeutic and fun activity and excellent value for money. Worth the long drive to enjoy + more
Brighid Power
Elke was so knowledgeable and helpful. She started the class with a good introduction and provided guidance with every next step. It was really exciting getting to learn about individual scents and how they come together to make perfumes. We enjoyed being able to smell everything and being able to create our own personalised perfumes. It was such a beautiful present idea and we loved the champagne + more

Sip and Paint Class with Paella: Ghost Gums in the Mist
The teacher, Nikki, was very clear and helpful showing us step by step and assisting where necessary. Her enthusiasm for her painting was catching. The venue was well set up with all the materials provided. Lunch and drinks were provided with ample champagne and sangria as well as tea and coffee. The paella was tasty and there was also soup for those who wanted it. Some of the paintbrushes were well + more

Received this class as a Christmas present from my partner. Was super keen after watching Blown Away. Our teacher Nick was brilliant - great safety and instruction prior to starting, immense knowledge, answered every question, super collaborative, patient, and helped us achieve amazing results. The venue was just how I imagined a sweat shop should be with quality materials and equipment - and lots + more
Joanne Burch
This was a gift for my husband and I for our wedding. Our teacher was impressive- Daniel Wilson executive chef from Yakimono in Melbourne. The venue was intimate and appropriate for the small class size. We could see everything easily. Recipes were provided as well as each individual dish that was cooked. The food was delicious, Daniel was informative- we learnt a lot. We had a great time and would + more

Tranquil Terrarium Class: Mindful Making
I got this workshop as a bday gift for my friend and decided to join myself. We had a really good time. Definitely would recommend
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
Maria Loe
Native Floral Bouquet Workshop for Beginners
We had a native theme floral bouquet arrangement class with Liza Rose. Liza was the most bubbly inviting teacher that took us through thoroughly step by step to make our bouquet look professional. The venue was spacious to work around with and the materials and colours were awesome I had learned to gift wrap my arrangement in a special way that i had never even thought to use the idea that Liza used. It + more
Amanda Hajgato
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
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
Nicole Fong
Noriko was a lovely, helpful and friendly instructor. Her hands on and patient approach made it so easy to follow the kintsugi process, and the bits of kintsugi history and background, and tea break with snacks kept the session interesting. I can’t wait to apply what I’ve learned to the broken ceramics i have at home. The kintsugi kit that Noriko stocked was an easy way to try it for myself. + more
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.
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

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

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!
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

It could be as simple as spending quality time painting in an art class just with Mum or gathering the whole family for a paint and sip session.
