Whether you are a self-confessed fragrance fanatic, or are a complete novice and just love aromas, you are going to love this workshop hosted in our scenic Blue Mountains location. In this workshop, "perfumeology" you will learn all about essential oils and what benefits they can bring to the body and mind. (option for bigger groups Fran can come to you).
Instead of buying expensive and perhaps toxic fragrances (colognes and perfumes), join this workshop to create your own natural perfume using essential oils.
Whether you are using a single oil, or are mixing and matching essential oils to find your perfect fragrance, you will always have one thing - the peace of mind you are doing good to your body while smelling wonderful at the same time!
Our perfume recipes have been tried and tested, they have unanimously been given the thumbs up. If you are feeling creative, make your own unique blend.
Our step-by-step class guide notes will have you creating your own signature scent in no time! Celebrities do it all the time and now you can too, only better and safer.
Your teacher is also able to bring the creative fun experience to you for your private small group celebration (travel up to two hours from the Blue Mountains).
Please note: The workshop will only go ahead if there are two or more participants - anyone booked will be moved to a new date that suits them.

  • 5/5 from Tara McKeown, attended Jun 2026: Fran came and ran a perfume class for our girls group of 10 and we had a fantastic time. It was so fun to learn something about scents, test whether we could name common aromas and make our own perfume or hand cream. It was such a nice time for all :) And it was so convenient for us for her to come to our airbnb for the class.
  • 5/5 from Michelle, attended Jan 2025: Loved learning to make my own perfume. Designing a fragrance was a really interesting process. Noticing the scents I was drawn too and what purpose they have.
  • 5/5 from Christine Broderick, attended Jan 2025: Great class! All materials supplied to give the best experience in limited time. Even got to make up our own perfume and hand cream to take home! I’m now confident to have a go at mixing my own essential oils. Fran is a really cool facilitator too and provides a really calm space.
  • 5/5 from Juliet Mercer, attended Jan 2024: Fran was a great teacher, interesting and fun. The venue was well set up, all materials were provided - including nibbles.

It was great fun discovering what we each liked and Fran was was a fun and engaging teacher with plenty of expertise to guide us. We then tried some combinations created by Fran before each creating a scent and hand cream suited to our own personal needs and taste. Fran was great at bringing people together to enjoy a wonderful and fun experience. She is so experienced at guiding but encouraging you to be creative. It was great fun and you'll smell great!

Fran is an artist; an educator, neither overshadows, they simply entwine and enrich one another.
At a young age Fran discovered the value of creating art in her daily life. The act of art helped Fran express her identity. The process of developing an idea, especially with jewellery, seeing that idea come to completion by Fran's own hand filled her with satisfaction and accomplishment.  Fran began to see how creating art helped other aspects of my life and learning.
Fran is inspired by nature, patterns, form and texture. Each created piece portrays a slice of life, a perspective of the world in which we all live. Her mediums span painting and jewellery to collage and stitching. They all bring joy, though not everything turns out how she envisaged.
In particular Fran sees the unique design and individually handcrafted nature of bespoke jewellery as an ornamental way of extending personal self-expression. During the creative process, she is mindful that someone will be wearing the piece and it will come alive only when it finds its owner.
Fran is most comfortable in the studio classroom teaching art than in any other place or endeavour. It fills her soul to help others learn by exposing them to tools, materials and techniques of Fran's trade and then develop their skills and confidence in the creative medium.
Through support, conversation and laughter, I set a welcoming scene of free expression.
Ladybird Design Creative Studio is the culmination of creating a life around my passions of art, jewellery and teaching. It frees Fran to take a piece of silver, blank canvas or paper, turn it into a beautiful thing and share it with the world every day. Fran believes now more than ever that pursuing one’s passions makes life more colourful and vibrant, gives us pleasure and purpose, but most of all it reminds us of who we are.
Fran would love to share the joy of creating and making with you.
