I was greeted by Mata who was extremely welcoming. Mata had an easygoing nature & along with her assistant Rosie, the class flowed wonderfully & nothing was a bother to either of them. We were shown all the steps along the way, laughing & having fun in a relaxed environment all chatting amongst ourselves which made it feel like we were visiting friends, which I must say was lovely. All of the ingredients we used were very fresh, herbs from the backyard garden - homegrown by our chef (can't get any fresher than that). We learned the entire 3-course menu, as well as other side dishes that we enjoyed making & eating along the way. Then we all sat down once everything had been made & ate our meal together, sharing stories, chatting, laughing, & eating the delicious meals we made together along with a cheeky glass or two of red or white wine, which I must say was a nice treat as well. The class was a 10/10 experience, the company, hospitality, venue, instructions/tips/tools, we even got to take home leftovers & our very own dish of Tiramisu. I will be back again ladies, thank you for opening your home to us. I feel blessed.

This class was wonderful, the teacher was very patient & friendly. The venue was great & it being Marina's home it had a lovely homely feel to it. The materials were all provided & they were all of great quality. The experience was exceptional value for money. I learned different little tips & tricks from a very experienced cook. I loved being around others who loved cooking, learning & eating authentic Italian food. The best part was sitting down all together at the end of the class & enjoying a meal together with a glass of wine, chatting & laughing together. Thank you, Marina, I will be back.

Marina is a warm, friendly, experienced teacher, who explains every step at a pace you are able to keep up with. Matilde is an extremely knowledgeable chef & a great teacher who is very passionate about what she does. We had the freshest of ingredients, & the best tools to assist with the job of pasta making, we enjoyed a glass of wine whilst our pasta was resting, along with roasted capsicum on bruschetta & prosciutto on bruschetta - which was divine. Was hosted in Marina's home which made it an authentic Italian feel & a lot of love in the room. The experience was a very relaxing, fun, & interactive way to spend a Sunday afternoon & the other people I met were all friendly & had the same love of food that I did & were excited to be there making pasta. We all sat down together to enjoy the pasta dishes we made together at the end of the class, one word - Bellissimo. I came away excited with the knowledge I could make it again at home for my loved ones. We left with goodie bags which was a lovely surprise. The class was exceptional value for money. Thank you again, I will be back for another class in the near future.

Niki was a wonderfully engaging instructor, very knowledgeable, & patient, went through the steps one by one until I understood them, explained the history of Zentangle, & showed me her other examples of the different tangles. I felt very comfortable & relaxed in her class & the speed at which she taught. I will most definitely be coming back to Niki's classes in the near future. If you are interested in Zentangle do yourself a favour & book a class with Niki, you can see the love Niki has for what she is doing & wants to pass her knowledge on, you can't go wrong with Niki. I come away from this class feeling motivated & inspired & I think I've found my next little passion project. Thank you, Niki. 

I absolutely loved the ​Art Glass Class for Beginners: Make a Heart​ with Jenie. It was a very relaxed atmosphere & fun class. ​Jenie is a wonderful teacher, showing you exactly what & how you do everything step by step, & if you forget something, not a problem she is right there to guide you. Everything you need is laid out for you to use, & every color of the rainbow Jenie has it in glass for you to use. Jenie has lots of knowledge that she shared with us, she is very passionate about what she does. The venue was great & the parking was easy. Wonderful time spent learning a new hobby, I must book another class.​ Highly recommended.

Our teacher Linda Newton was wonderful, extremely patient, had plenty of tips & tricks to share with us, explained everything in detail but in an easy & straightforward way. The materials provided were excellent, & we got to keep them to take home & continue working on becoming better artists. I believe the experience was good value for money as Linda has years of experience & talent. Linda also has the unique ability to show & guide you in the right direction & as I was an absolute beginner with watercolors & very nervous she gently encouraged me & gave me pointers on where I needed to work on (which you cannot get from reading a book). I learnt that nothing can really go wrong & if you are learning it's all good, it's really about having fun & learning something new. I'm most definitely going home & will be practicing my artwork & watercolors to get better at it. It was also great to see other participants' artwork which had been made in the workspace. Do yourself a favor & do this class - you will absolutely love it. 10/10 Thank you, Linda.

The Mosaic Workshop for Beginners was fantastic, I had so much fun on the weekend. It was a two-day class & the teachers were great, both Rhain & Ettore were very thorough & patient with each student. The venue was in a great location, we had lots of room to work, all of the materials were provided, lots of colors to choose from for our mosaic piece. A lovely lunch with coffee was provided on-site, we were very relaxed & felt like we were amongst family by the end of the weekend's session. I learnt how to do the mosaic process from start to finish, beginners of course but I left feeling confident knowing the steps needed & materials to go ahead & start my own project at home. I can see myself doing this craft as a fun hobby at home. It's great value for money & I would recommend this beginners class to anyone interested in learning mosaics. Thank you again. Take care, Kimberley.

I recently had the opportunity to do the Intro to Leadlight Windows Weekend & I must say that I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I had at making the piece. The location was great in picturesque Kyneton, easy parking, gift shop on site. The studio had everything you needed, you were gently guided by Ettore & his daughter on how to proceed & step by step through the process at your own pace, (as well as Ettore's wife & another lady assisting) they were all extremely knowledgeable, very patient & organised. Lunch & coffee was provided on day one, which hit the spot. I believe the class was great value for money, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, was proud of what I made & will definitely be back for another class. I also loved looking at the other students work as their finished product. Top teachers, great people, pleasant venue & well run business. Highly recommended. Thank you ♡♡
