LouellaI did the Kiss Ready Lip’s perfume-making course yesterday, and it was fantastic. I’ve wanted to create my own signature scent for quite a while, and this short course exceeded all expectations. Louella guided us through a brief history of perfume, the science behind it and the creative possibilities. Then came the fun part: choosing from around 200 different scents to build a balanced fragrance pyramid and create our own unique signature blend! Louella has a real gift for explaining things. Her passion shines through, and you can tell this is her calling. She’s incredibly generous with her knowledge and time. We went beyond the allotted session, but she kept teaching and helping us get the most out of the experience. I’ll definitely be recommending this to friends and family, and I’m already planning to buy a few gift cards. An outstanding experience. Highly recommend. 11 out of 10! + more

I’m not particularly artistic and don’t even wear rings, so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I ended up having such a great time and discovering a creative side I didn’t know I had. I made a ring for my partner, which turned out to be a really special and personalised gift. The fact that it was a complete surprise made it even more meaningful! Alfie and Delfi are the best! They’re super supportive, patient and great at teaching you every step of the process, making it easy and enjoyable regardless of your experience. The workshop has a fantastic vibe, whether you go with friends, as a couple or on your own. You can get creative, enjoy a glass of wine and share the experience with others. If you’re hesitant because you don’t consider yourself artistic or don’t usually wear jewellery, I’d definitely recommend giving it a go. It’s also a great idea for a unique gift for your partner or a friend. Couldn’t recommend Haina enough! ️ + more

We loved creatingWe had a wonderful time at the terrarium workshop! The teacher was friendly, knowledgeable, and patient, guiding us through each step and making the experience enjoyable and easy to follow. We loved creating our own little miniature gardens, choosing the plants, arranging the layers, and adding the finishing touches to make each terrarium unique. The best part was getting creative and taking home something beautiful that we made ourselves. It was a relaxing, hands-on experience and a lovely way to spend time together. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and unique activity or a thoughtful gift idea! + more

From the moment we arrived, Rémy was incredibly welcomingMy wife and I took Rémy's wooden spoon carving class as an anniversary gift, after she had mentioned wanting to get into wood carving one day. From the moment we arrived, Rémy was incredibly welcoming and created such a relaxing atmosphere, sitting around the fire and enjoying tea while we carved. Rémy was a fantastic teacher, guiding us through each step with patience, encouragement, and a genuine passion for the craft. What really stood out was how he went above and beyond to help my wife get started with wood carving beyond the class, recommending books, tools, and other resources she could use on her journey. The four hours absolutely flew by, and I was amazed at how well our spoons turned out by the end. It was a fun, rewarding, and memorable experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in wood carving. You won't regret it! Thanks again Rémy. + more

Why experience gift cards are actually romantic presents for Valentine’s Day
Think gift cards can’t be romantic? Think again. The key is not buying just any old gift card but an experience gift card! Why? Because it’s all about making memories. From making cocktails together to showing each other your painting skills, it’s less about the material item and more about the moments you’ll cherish.
For last-minute gifters, these experience vouchers are a lifesaver. Let’s face it, life gets busy! No need to scramble through crowded shopping centres or settle for something generic. With just a few clicks, you’ll have a present that’s as flexible as it is thoughtful. And for the indecisive among us, gift cards are a godsend. They give him the freedom to choose something he genuinely loves, from woodworking to photography or even something adventurous like knife making. The gesture feels thoughtful, while the choice feels personal.
It’s not just about ticking the Valentine’s Day box—it’s about giving him something to look forward to. Whether he’s crafting, learning or sipping his way through the day, experience gift cards for him foster fun, connection and a touch of adventure. Now that’s romantic!

"My partner and I went to this class as a Valentines day activity. Our teacher was fantastic, had great energy and paced the experience well. There was a great variety of materials to choose from and really allowed us to get creative! The class is definitely worth the money and we would both definitely do it again!" - Rutu Salunkhe.
Be unique this Vday with experience gifts for him
It’s easy to fall into the trap of generic Valentine’s Day presents—cologne, socks or the usual dinner date. But where’s the excitement in that? Experience gifts for him offer a fresh alternative to the predictable, turning Valentine’s Day into an opportunity for discovery and fun.
Does he love working with his hands? Resin art or woodwork classes are ideal for creative types. If he’s been craving a break from the everyday grind, a candle-making or paint and sip class offers the perfect chance to relax and recharge.
Adventure lovers can channel their energy into activities like blacksmithing, furniture making or beekeeping. And if he’s someone who loves to appreciate the finer things in life, workshops like artisan cheese making or chocolate classes are a surefire hit. He’ll not only indulge in delicious treats but also pick up some impressive skills to show off later.
The best part? These gifts are as unique as the person you’re celebrating. This Valentine’s Day, trade the clichés for a present that’s all about discovery and delight.
