Clay Sculpture Workshop: Make a Human Torso
I booked a Private Class for 4 people with Irina from Imakesculptures as a gift for my daughters 15th Birthday. Irina doesn’t usually work on a Monday but as it was a special occasion she was very accommodating and offered to hold a Private class just for us! The workshop was a Clay Sculpture Workshop - Making a Human Torso. We had a fabulous time and as we were beginners she even gave us extra time + more

Pat Jukes
Luxury Natural Perfume Masterclass
This was a Christmas gift from our dad. Our teacher Jessica was lovely, warm and friendly. Jessica even arrived with some pastries that was a beautiful gesture thank you. We had a private home experience which was lovely. We learnt so much about how perfume has base, middle and top lays and how these make the smell of the perfume. The oils were so beautiful to smell and even funnier was the fact that + more
Alex Mansfield
Glass Blowing Class for Beginners: Taster
Steve and I were given this class as a gift from our son. It was fabulous to experience something completely different, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Mark was very knowledgeable and definitely made glass blowing look easy! We came away with the pieces we made and they will be a lovely memento of a fun afternoon. Thoroughly recommended!
Hayley Matevski
Clay and Sip Wheel Throwing Pottery Class
This was a shared birthday gift for me and my mum. We had a great time. Teacher was lovely and informative, and very present with everyone - guiding them through the process whilst also allowing the freedom of good old trial and error. With unlimited clay attempts you really didn't fear going for it and trying again, and two hours felt like the perfect amount to end up with a decent item (or two) that + more
Georgia Alikaris
This was a surprise gift for myself and my two besties from my husband. The location is easy find, with lots of parking and close to the train station, great explanation from the teacher and quite easy to learn. I wish there was a greater variety of neutral tone yarn but the variety of bright colours is awesome. The girls and I had so much fun and our designs turned out awesome. It's best to pick + more
Nicole Fong
Noriko was a lovely, helpful and friendly instructor. Her hands on and patient approach made it so easy to follow the kintsugi process, and the bits of kintsugi history and background, and tea break with snacks kept the session interesting. I can’t wait to apply what I’ve learned to the broken ceramics i have at home. The kintsugi kit that Noriko stocked was an easy way to try it for myself. + more
Phaedra Ravier
Had an amazing time! It was a Christmas gift from my son, who also participated in the class, which made it doubly special. Our teacher was amazing, so patient and she told us lots of interesting facts. We made pillow cases and found material we really liked which went so well on my couch later on!
Nicole Poblete
Tufting Class for Beginners: Make a Tufted Rug
The class was a gift from my sister in Canada to my daughter who is 12. I came as well thinking 5hrs was a long time for her to be alone but she would have been fine. The teachers were super helpful and the technique was easy to pick up. My one regret was not picking a harder design for myself as I thought it would turn out bad, it being my first attempt and all. There was also a good amount of colours + more
Grace Gilpin
Natural Skincare Making Workshop
I bought this class for my best friends birthday and can I say it did not disappoint! Polly was an absolute lovely human who taught us all about natural hair care products, essential oils and so so much more. I felt at ease in the classroom (which was beautiful btw) and I loved how passionate she is about natural skincare! It was so worth it, I left feeling inspired to be more natural in the products + more
Meg Galvin
The Art of Indian Cooking Masterclass
Bhavna, our cooking instructor, was so lovely and knowledgeable about Indian food and the history behind the cuisine and the spices. I loved the way she involved us in the cooking process and we each got to make a dish. The food was so delicious and we all felt like we had contributed to creating the feast we demolished at the end. At the beginning of the day, we learnt to make the awesome basic sauce + more
Vera Manalac
Clay and Sip Wheel Throwing Pottery Class
Bought this for my husband as a Christmas gift and it was so much fun. Georgina is a wonderful, patient and funny teacher. Would highly recommend for all even if you don't have any pottery experience ( we didn't). Will definitely be back x
Andrew Mills
Resin Art Workshop: Cheese Board and Coasters
Specifics: It's held in a proper art room/studio room. There was about 12 of us total in our session groups of 2 and 3. Both hosts who run the event are super easy and nice but really engaging and help you get the hang of it. We stayed back afterwards and chatted about starting some resin projects at home and they are genuinely happy to give advice and make recommendations and show what they do on + more
Andrea & Peter
The teacher Yvette was very lovely and gave clear instructions on different methods of handling a brush and colour mixing. The venue was great with plenty of space to work and everything was available to enable us to do a painting. We all took home a "masterpiece". I did my first abstract painting. It is always good to meet other budding artists. This was a birthday present from my kids and I + more

Ko-Chueh Lin
Glass Blowing Class for Beginners: Taster
I bought this class as a birthday present for my partner. We both had a lot of fun during the class. Mark is a great teacher, very patient and inspiring. He demonstrated a number of techniques at the beginning and let everyone have a go at practicing these techniques at our hearts content before moving on to the blowing portion of the class. We ended up with a few pieces each to take home. It was a + more
Brett Clements
The BBQ Seafood class was great. As someone who didn’t feel comfortable cooking seafood on the BBQ I tended to shy away from this. However, after completing this class I feel I have the confidence to give this a red hot go. The teacher was great explaining the process and demonstrating some tips on how to prep the food well, particularly squid and prawns. A receipe book for the four items we cooked + more
Pearl Cheung
Candle Making Class: Soy Wax Flower Tablets
This was such a relaxing class, perfect to wind down and get creative. The teacher was really patient and guided on how best place the flowers down, but just like pancakes, the first one always comes out a little wonky. But once you get the hang of it, it becomes really fun and easy. Heaps of scents and flowers to choose from, so you really get to experiment with what you like. Best part is you get + more
Experience Gifts and Ideas Sydney
Why Sydney experiences make the best gifts
The real beauty of experience gifts is that they can’t be replicated. Unlike a pair of shoes, a bouquet of flowers, or that other new item you just had to have, our Sydney experiences can last a lifetime. Studies show that buying trends are shifting away from goods and commodities and toward authentic and unique experiences gifts. Why? Because shared experiences can enrich lives, strengthen connections and improve mental wellbeing. Spend Mother's Day in Sydney in 2024 learning something new with your mum and reconnecting. You'll even take home your own creation!

There are birthday gift experiences like polymer clay earring making in Newtown—the best experience gift for anyone who loves personalising their look.

The experience gift ideas in Sydney are endless, and there are new experience presents listed every day.
