Loved Kirsty's class! Life was feeling a little dreary from working from home all day and we did Kirsty's class as a corporate team building session. It was a great hit with the team we feel a lot more refreshed from the change in pace and tactile shared experience. Thank you Kirsty!

Kirsty was amazing! All out students had so much fun. The session was a blast, we had an amazing time and would do this workshop again!
We learnt so much about how to use beeswax wraps, refresh old ones and make new ones :)

Very interesting approach to be more sustainable, good to get the background on where the method comes from. Though would like to have more time on the hands on and practical demostrations (there a lots to learn).

Had a session with my team, something fun to cheer us up during this lock down, and useful too! It was a great fun. Would have been nice if we had more options with cloths, instead of 2 and spent more time showing each other's work.

Kirsty was very informative and passionate about her amazing craft. Easy to follow and patient as we followed along. Kirsty provided rich information about the products and use of them, providing additional tips to spark our interest. I totally recommend and will be signing up for another course with Kirsty. A great way to end a WFH day.

I thoroughly enjoyed the beeswax workshop, Kristy was a joy to listen to and made the class feel easy even for beginners. It was a lovely way to break up the working day whilst in lockdown.

Kirsty was great! The entire group got a kick out of how simple the process was and I think Kirsty's passion for the sustainability and environmental impact of using these wraps has inspired us all to do our part.

Judith Guardiani Jun 2021


Kirsty was lovely. She knows her craft and is generous sharing her experiences and knowledge with those who are interested in learning something new.
I look forward to many hours making wraps for myself, daughters and gifts.

Melissa Parent Jun 2021


I wanted to eliminate my use of clingwrap and plastic bags for food storage (even if those plastic bags are reused again and again). Beeswax wraps are so expensive, and good luck finding jumbo-sized wraps to store bread in! So I thought my current practices were as good as I could get.

Wrong! Kirsty's class means I can level up my sustainability practices at low cost. $40+ wraps? No more. I can hit up an op shop for fabric (or reuse cotton fabrics I already have) and buy beeswax. And for a tenth of the cost can now make my own wraps. Bonus: I can share what I've learned with Kirsty's open encouragement to do so.

Fantastic class!

Sue Jun 2021


I enjoyed Kate's way of imparting her information and patience as well. It was simple to understand but questions were readily answers. Well done!

I thoroughly recommend her to anyone thinking about doing a natural skincare class - she has a wealth of information on all the different products.

This class was fantastic - Kirsty was so very knowledgeable and was so happy to teach us all she knew. The balm smells wonderful, and feels so good on my heels and elbows in particular. And the perfume roller was an added bonus! I look forward to trying again soon on my own

I thought that I was going to miss out on this class, because I wasn't well the night I had originally booked, but Kirsty was gracious enough to rebook me. This was appreciated so much as I had been looking forward to the class. Thank you Kirsty!

Suzy Lawrie Aug 2020


Excellent class. Materials were provided, the teacher clearly explained the process, provided a easy to understand demonstration and we received an instruction booklet via email afterwards. I got great satisfaction from making my own wraps. If you are doing this class in Winter the warehouse style venue is cold so wear warm clothes! I highly recommend this class!

Kirsty was fantastic! She covered all elements and methods of beeswax wrap making, cleaning and using! She answered all of my questions and held a fantastic tutorial. Highly recommend! A great way to spend an evening!

Well led and easy to understand, didn’t realise how easy it was to make own skin care.

Brenda Jul 2020


I found the information was clear and instructions easy to follow. Have a electric frying pan made it easy to dissolve the bees wax. Total enjoyed this class. Covered all my answers and included booklet was so much more. Very enjoyable. Many thanks Brenda.

The class run by Kirsty was very informative - she appears to be quite passionate and knowledgeable about natural skincare and indeed promoting the DIY nature of it too.
It's not so scary now - I look forward to replicating the recipes that were presented and extending my own knowledge in this area.

A fabulous class with newly learnt skills. I feel confident going forward that I will be able to create these wraps for myself and my friends, and also feel great knowing I'm helping the environment. Kirsty is a friendly and informative teacher who got through all the nitty gritty without me feeling overwhelmed. In addition to the class Kirsty has provided me with additional information regarding future resources I may need.

What a wonderful workshop! Learning how to reduce the need for cling film and bags by creating beautiful beeswax wraps. Kirsty is a wonderful teacher and was so enthusiastic about everything related to reducing waste. Super fun and easy to make, I'll never buy cling film again! Thanks!

Beeswax Wrap Making Class review by Kelly Macri - Sydney

Fran Frino Dec 2019


Great class and lovely teacher. The only slight changes I would suggest are a shorter intro, perhaps 15 minutes rather than 30 and Producing a set of five wraps rather than three. Other than that highly recommend.

Melissa Koki Dec 2019


Kirsty is a lovely person, she shared with us all her knowledge about beeswax wrap. We started by introducing ourselves and talking a little bit about sustainability and the ecological footprint and then we learned how to make beeswax wrap. It was a 2 hours workshop with 9 people, but the time went by very fast.

Adelie Hanly Dec 2019


Kristy was inspiring, and her passion was shared with us throughout the class.

She is so knowledgable in sustainability, and a great teacher.

Thanks for a wonderful and soulfully fulling evening :)
