Help them unwind with soothing pottery classes

Guided by a passionate ceramicist, your special someone will learn how to spin clay on the potter’s wheel and sculpt ceramic mugs, vases and more. There’s nothing more satisfying than watching a lump of solid clay transform into a functional, everyday item! 

As well as being super calming, wheel throwing workshops are also a great way for couples to bond (Ghost, anyone?) and for this reason are perfect experience gifts for couples to try. Treat your favourite duo with romantic anniversary gifts they’ll love or join a class with your own partner.

Treat them to a day of pampering DIY skincare classes

Show your giftee how much you care by giving them a gift that’ll make them feel good both inside and out! With a relaxing natural skincare workshop, your mum, sister or even Dad can learn what it takes to create beautiful, organic products that’ll have their skin feeling smooth and nourished. 

Their talented maker will take them through all the natural ingredients they can use—a lot you’ll already find in most pantries—to customise a skincare routine that is completely theirs and that they’re sure to love.

Nourish their bellies with a cooking class

Food is a wonderful way to express love and cooking classes are one of the best experience gifts in Perth for the foodies in your life. From sushi rolling and dumpling folding to pasta making, these hands-on workshops will have your gift recipient whipping up delicious, restaurant-worthy meals in no time—all of which they can enjoy at the end of their class. 

On the hunt for unique Christmas gift ideas? Cooking workshop gift cards are a great choice if you’re stuck on present ideas. As well as being a fun experience where they’ll learn lifelong skills, your giftee will also get a tasty meal to enjoy. It’s like giving two gifts in one!

Indulge their inner sommelier with a wine tasting experience

For the wine enthusiast in your life, give them the ultimate experience with a private wine tasting. Under the guidance of an experienced sommelier, they’ll get to immerse themselves in an array of delicious wines while learning all about their unique flavours and characteristics.

It’s also a great way for them to learn how to perfectly match food and wine so they can confidently host their own dinner parties or simply enjoy a glass of their favourite vino with the best possible meal. What better way to encourage your friend or family member to take some time out and relax than with these experience gifts in Perth? 

Sink hands into dirt at a relaxing terrarium class

All materials needed will be provided, whether it’s a glass vessel, soil, succulents or decorative rocks. Plus, your giftee will also receive their own copy of the maker’s terrarium guide so they can keep growing their green thumb at home.

Get creative with a macrame workshop

Macrame is making a big comeback and it’s no wonder why. This craft is both beautiful and therapeutic—the perfect combination of self-care and creativity. Your giftee will love learning the basics of macrame from expert makers, who will take them through their projects step-by-step.

By the end of the class, your special someone will have made one or two beautiful pieces to hang in their home as decorations or even give away as gifts for friends and family!

Inspire them with calligraphy classes 

If you know someone who loves creating something special out of nothing, a calligraphy workshop is an ideal gift experience in Perth! During this session, they’ll learn traditional calligraphy techniques that’ll enable them to express themselves through writing by using nibs, ink and paper. 

Plus, this is also one of those thoughtful gifts that keep on giving; beyond the basics of lettering, their instructor will also teach them about layout design which could then be used for everything from greeting cards to signage.
