The teachers gave very good instruction on how to use the tufting gun and made sure to keep an eye out if we struggled plus went over each rug to make sure we were taking home a fluffy rug. This was so much fun and will definitely be doing this again! + more

We had the best time I'm so glad I chose this class! The instructor went at our pace and the process was so interesting to learn. My mum especially loved it she was so relaxed. The concept and the space are well thought out. We got to take home the cutest final products they looked good enough to eat! + more

Our teacher was incredibly sweet, patient, and helpful throughout the session. She paid close attention to what we wanted and guided us step by step in creating our terrariums. She explained the whole process clearly and also shared useful aftercare tips to help us maintain them. There were so many adorable miniature decorations to choose from, and she happily let us decorate our terrariums however we liked. We ended up filling ours with lots of cute miniatures! They also kindly offered us coffee at no extra charge, which made the experience feel even more warm and welcoming. We enjoyed the entire experience so much, and it was even more special getting to take our beautiful terrariums home as a keepsake. It was such a fun and memorable experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a creative and meaningful activity. + more

My daughter (8 years old) really enjoyed the class, especially choosing a design and painting. The one bit she found a little difficult was preparing the outline of the painting using the gold paint so if you are thinking of doing this class with a little one, be prepared to help with this part. Many thanks to Rashmi and her team for excellent service - including answering questions when I called ahead of the class, and also for kindly including some materials for my daughter to unleash some more creativity at home. There were several other art classes happening at the same time which I am keen to try out in future as well! + more

Why Melbourne experiences make the best gifts
- Value what truly matters: The best thing about buying a Melbourne experience gift is that you’re placing value on living life over accumulating stuff. Instead of collecting things that may eventually gather dust, you're gifting someone the chance to try new experiences, learn new skills and explore fresh passions. Whether it’s pouring resin art, decorating a cake or making a custom fragrance, experience gifts are all about enjoyment and adventure.
- Make last-minute gifts special: Have you ever scrambled for the perfect last-minute gift? Well, the beauty of an experience is your present comes in the form of a workshop gift card. That’s an almost instantaneous delivery for digital gift cards, so there’s no more stressing about shipping times or wrapping paper!

“This class was given to me as a gift—I was very unsure what to expect but absolutely loved every minute of it! The teacher was so patient and helpful with me.
