Work-Shop is a creative concept that will broaden your horizons and help you unleash your inner awesome. We provide affordable short courses in life skills and alternative art. We’ve teamed up with Australia’s brightest creative minds to share their knowledge and help teach you a new skill. From 3D printing and stencil art through to music and gardening – life skills and personal development through to cooking doughnuts and mushroom foraging, we offer a broad range of fun and creative short courses to suit our time poor lives. We will inspire you to pick up that pen, paintbrush, hammer or sewing machine and flick the switch that will kickstart a whole new way of life.

Community values lie at the heart of our project. We collaborate with local artists and industry experts to teach classes and utilise local suppliers for any materials needed. We also provide a creative environment for emerging artists to produce and sell work, and meet like minded individuals. Work-Shop will be a space for everyone, with a rotating schedule of art shows, information nights on local issues and a whole range of events and community initiatives.

Bree McArthur • Apr 2024

Such a fun date night with my partner - our teacher oneeighty was fantastic, super engaging and fun. She provided quality attention to each and every person in the class and provided positive feedback to ensure our artwork turned out as amazing as possible.

Julie O’Brien • Apr 2024

Learned some great tips for handling tools and got to put them into practice by making a planter box.

I liked the safety tips and info about how to use stance and body weight for precision and power.

Great instruction!

Rebecca Ridd • Apr 2024

The teacher was excellent! She was so approachable, encouraging and engaging and knowledgeable too! A great intro to working with tools ️

Rhiannon Olle • Apr 2024

Helena was great, clearly explained everything we needed to do.
Was very supportive, class was well organised and I was really happy with the planter I made during the class

Kerrie Phillips • Apr 2024

Couldn’t fault anything. Enjoyed myself and learnt a lot. Would highly recommend the class

Jessica Kilpatrick • Apr 2024

A nice and casual class, Helena was a great teacher who explained everything really clearly and in a relatable way - addressed most of our concerns before we had to ask
I learned a lot of extra things about DIY and tools that I was not expecting to which was nice

Shannon Holden • Apr 2024

Great introduction to tarot reading! It broke everything down and I walked away with how to move forward.

Madeleine McKinley • Apr 2024

So much fun! Great vibe. Kate is a really good teacher - shows you how to do it but also gives you space to make it your own. Thank you!

Charissa Bowers • Apr 2024

Obsessed thanks so much, really felt connected to the teaching and felt very open to receiving and learning.

Sarah Snow-Lake • Apr 2024

Great class, great teacher - she actively supported the whole group and gave clear and concise feedback to drive the outcomes individuals were after. It was fun and I liked the final product, would recommend and go back myself.

Britt Stafford • Apr 2024

I Had a great class with Caity. She was so much help. Can definitely recommend!

Barbara Roth • Apr 2024

I loved the venue and the vibe. The teacher was very friendly and helpful. Though it was probably one of the most difficult workshops I've done. Watching time was essential for each step to work out. I went with a friend but ended up having to concentrate a lot more than I thought and wasn't the chattiest on the day. Still it was great and I look forward to trying it on my own.

Renae Walton • Apr 2024

I've wanted to learn about Kintsugi for a while so it was great to pick up this new skill.
Our teacher was great and the room set up was great.
Was also good to walk home with the materials to continue practicing and learning this at home.

Michael Benjamin • Apr 2024

Wonderful class! The instructor was friendly and informative, and gave us the time we needed to complete each part. The end results were amazing and I def would recommend to do this with your friends or even by yourself.

Liam Segal • Apr 2024

Loved this experience so so much. Had lots of fun and love my very own eco system, can’t wait to see it grow. This was a birthday present for myself from my boyfriend, and I hope to come back again.

Sallyanne Hunter • Apr 2024

Terrific class! Helen was a brilliant instructor- clear, concise, engaging and helpful. She was able to demonstrate the process and deliver the instruction in a really clear way so we could spend the bulk of our time creating our Kintsugi masterpieces. I really enjoyed the relaxed vibe throughout the class - the venue was bright and spacious and we and learnt so much in a short period of time. Would highly recommend this class!

Nadine Yau • Apr 2024

Great class. The teacher was very thorough and helpful. The materials provided were excellent and I loved the venue. I’ll be back.

Given to me as a bday present, i did not know what to expect but Jess made 2 hours absolutely fly by and the knowledge i have gained is amazing. confident enough to make my own sourdough and really enjoying it. thanks a lot

Elly Robilliard • Apr 2024

Caity was very helpful and engaging whilst teaching the stained glass jewellery class. I really enjoyed how she included everyone and supported the different styles of each participant. I will definitely be attending again!

Love this workshop so much. The teacher was amazing. Ive found a new hobby. The studio setup was really cool as well

Jasmine Frew • Apr 2024

Jess has such a comprehensive knowledge of everything that she teaches. Fantastic class! I liked that she was happy for us to contact her if we needed help!

Sarah Louise Ricketts • Mar 2024

This workshop was a birthday present for a dear friend, and I accompanied her. Jess is a wonderful teacher, clear, concise, and in firm control of the how, why, when, and what else we should know of making a daikon pickle and a jar of miso. I am neuro-divergent and often lag a bit in workshops, but not this one. And there was no pressure, either. I felt no anxiety, just wonderfully supported by Jess's presence, her generous spirit and attention to detail. I highly recommend this class and am looking forward to attending something with Jess in future. Great value for money. I love the venue too.

Georgia Loane • Mar 2024

Had a great time at the handy-woman workshop the other night!
Very cool warehouse space, plenty of space to work as well with my own workstation.
The teacher for the night was awesome! Really great tips and teaching at a basic level which is what I needed! Perfect for learning the fundamentals of woodwork and learning to use things like a drill, jigsaw, wood clamps etc.
Decent value for money - wouldn't have wanted it to have been more expensive, but at the current price of $180 for 3 hrs and making and taking home a planter box, I was happy :)

Craig B Christie • Mar 2024

Very imformative, learned a lot and very well answered questions that were put forward. Would recomend this class to anyone who is interested in knowing more about growing mushrooms.

Perrie Sims • Mar 2024

teacher was awesome, super helpful and accommodating. encouraged everyone to be creative and gave guidance and support throughout the process.
would definitely recommend for anyone interested in jewellery making- this class is good for all levels!

Antonia Everson • Mar 2024

The clarity of Helena's instructions and her sense of fun and humour meant that I felt relaxed and empowered to learn some essential new skills. Can't wait for the next one!

Montanna Gerber-Corn • Mar 2024

Great workshop! Caity was very helpful and relaxed - creating a pressure free relaxing workshop! Lots of time and lots of wax to have a play around and slowly work out what you’re doing. Thanks again :)

Belinda Adler • Mar 2024

Really enjoyable and well organised class. Teaches were super helpful and knowledgeable and gave everyone individual recommendations based on their unique piece.

It definitely gave me the confidence to be able to tackle this project on my own

Stephanie Rahardja • Mar 2024

Loved this workshop, tufting is so much fun and Helena was a great instructor. Would highly recommend doing this workshop!

Jen Schutze • Mar 2024

Awesome day! Wonderful teachers. Awesome tips and techniques along with product knowledge. Great wellbeing activity, for anyone needing a break for a day.
Loved taking something old and making it new. Refreshing!

Eliza Browne • Mar 2024

A great way to have some fun with friends doing something creative! Nice to break out of the traditional dinner and drinks options to celebrate a special occasion.

Laura Brunt • Mar 2024

Really fun class, Carla was really helpful and supportive, and I left with a super cute piece to display at home.

Madeleine McKinley • Mar 2024

So much fun! Great help from the teacher but she also just let's you do your thing

Shae Bailey • Mar 2024

Unfortunately I was sick and unable to attend. My daughter did go and said that it was great

Jacqueline Cousland • Mar 2024

This experience was exciting. Tom was encouraging and easy to understand. As somebody who is not musical, it inspired me. It was a gift from my son.

Moira Craig • Mar 2024

l've never even held a ukelele, and school piano lessons were decades long-gone, but Tom the Pom is such a good teacher & entertainer, the 90 mins passed in a flash and l emerged having learned the basic chords for thousands of songs, and had played several of them to boot!
Most of the class had no music training whatever, but Tom had us all strumming along within 10 mins.
Highly recommended for both the power of music and the excellent teacher.

Elle Dowling • Mar 2024

It was a very nice relaxing Sunday class. The instructor is clear and easy to follow for beginners. We had a lot of fun!

Angela Greatorex • Mar 2024

Class was great value for money.lm a total beginner at watercolour and thought it was informative and pitched just right for beginners. Just wish you had continuing lessons.

Claire Jenkins • Mar 2024

I had so much fun! Liana was a great teacher and the class to had a good balance between introducing skills and practicing them. Incredible value for money. Highly recommend!

A great session: The instructor is a talented sculptor and an excellent teacher. 5 stars, I’ll be returning for more classes.

Abdul Hamoui • Mar 2024

Everything was great in the short course! Teacher was excellent, venue was great as well. I chose the course to open up my horizons from steel sculpture and are hoping to combine the two together. Well worth the money and hope there is an advanced course coming up.

Cassie Gibson • Mar 2024

Thanks for a great intro to water colour! I loved it! It was a relaxed and informative class.

Chelsea Hayes • Mar 2024

Well-paced class covering basic watercolour equipment and techniques so you can get started with creating your own artworks. Lovely relaxing experience in a light-filled workshop with calm music.

Row York • Mar 2024

A fantastic class! Highly recommend. Helena was excellent (friendly, knowledgeable and a really clear communicator) and class was perfectly paced while still covering a while lot of stuff. Can't wait to try some projects at home now!

Cameron Prebble • Mar 2024

Let the students choose the wax pieces for the size and shape they want, i found that most of them were skinny and small and had to swap for a larger size with another student. Otherwise thoroughly enjoyed the experience and was happy with the outcome of my ring

Candeece Brown • Mar 2024

I really enjoyed this class. I have never done anything like this before and wanted to do something out of my comfort zone. The class was achievable for an absolute beginner like me but also challenging enough for someone with more experience and creativity. It was a judgement free zone and really welcoming. I never felt like I didn’t belong there or wasn’t good enough for the class. I can’t wait to see what my final product looks like. I was able to make two rings. I can’t wait to do more mini courses.

Catherine Wolters • Mar 2024

Teacher was excellent, good mix of theory and hands on. We received an e-book afterwards with link and tips which is execellent- simple and well laid out. Class fee also includes the bread shaping basket and the mother dough starter.

I would highly recommend this class.

Nathan Armagnacq • Mar 2024

@katsnowden was an incredible host. We had our Christmas party in March for 19 people and she made the perfume making class next level. Easy to understand and world class knowledge. Thanks Kat eveyone on our team enjoyed themselves! Would recommend 11/10

Rebecca Courtier • Mar 2024

Such a great intro to crochet. The class was very laid back and hands on. Helena was very patient and checked in on everyone's progress and workshoped where we went wrong. You go home with a set of needles and an instruction manual to help you keep it up.

Lisa Nguyen • Mar 2024

Absolutely worth the time. I've failed so many attempts at making sourdough and finally got it right after class. It was fun, interactive and most importantly the steps were made easy to follow. I even used some tips and made focaccia the next day. Jess is a great teacher, she’s informative and was happy to answer so many questions.

Karen Sandford • Mar 2024

I thoroughly enjoyed this class. The teacher was lovely and the information was extensive. Currently waiting for my first loaf to finish baking.

Noeline Prasad • Mar 2024

I really loved this class. Our teacher was awesome and took us through all the steps to learn the basic stitches in crochet. She also practiced the steps at the same ime as the class, and went around to help everyone as they needed it. The structure and learning style of this class has been the best compared with some other community classes I've taken. Would definitely recommend!

Roslyn Kulhawycz • Mar 2024

Skills for life
Amazing night out! I attended with my husband and daughter. Jess is the sourdough guru. She shared so much information and we all felt that we could go home and be sourdough bakers ‍‍‍. We were so excited to get our starter and can’t wait to grow more and eat delicious bread that is good for us. We loved every minute of it.
Jess gave so many tips and tricks on how to make it achievable in the family home. So worth every penny! Thanks so much, for the amazing experience!

Great class! Really nice teacher who provided slow and simple instructions and was super kind every time I messed up (which was often). Thank you!

Trish Hughes • Mar 2024

I absolutely loved this class. It was informative and fun. Teacher was soooo patient and knowledgeable- and lovely sense of humour. Bravo
I would highly recommend this class. I’m going to hopefully practice and get to the next level.
Absolutely correctly priced - good value for money.

Kairen Harris • Mar 2024

The instructor Helena, was absolutely outstanding. She provided a clear description on how to use the tools (provided), important advice on how to avoid accidents and a helpful steer on how to choose tools for home projects. There was hands on help when needed, but lots of solo practice to master the skills taught. I can't recommend this workshop enough for those who have always fancied having a go but know nothing! And the planter was a great momento. The venue was airy and spacious and the class size about right. The pre-joining instructions were also helpful in regard to location and parking. I'm delighted. Full marks from me.

Amy Caldwell • Mar 2024

Me and my friend did it! It was fantastic, I love the people at workshop!

Rebecca L • Mar 2024

Fabulous space and excellent teacher who gave us a solid understanding of the fundamentals of woodworking, including good handling/technical skills (with emphasis on safety and proper use of tools). A great step by step approach (with small class size and a lot of space, and attention when needed!) to making our own planter box a satisfying result that's useful and replicable. Thank you Helena!

Cath Odgers • Mar 2024

Really enjoyed the experience.

The teacher was fantastic, the location perfect, and all the provider supplies that we could also take home to keep going was great.

I really enjoyed the class and have already recommended it to a few friends!

Victoria Kuczer • Mar 2024

Really fun afternoon of making a super cute enclosed terrarium. Very clean instructions, and super fulfilling to take your own little biodome home. Workshop Melbourne is also a cool, light-filled space to take classes in.

Julie O'Loughlin • Mar 2024

Our teacher was brilliant at explaining things and very patient. Materials provided were excellent. Participants were friendly and keen to be there. Great experience and I learnt a lot.

Leigh Redhead • Mar 2024

The class was AMAZING! I have tried to learn how to do woodwork and use power tools via YouTube but it never worked. Helena is an experienced, funny and patient teacher who first explained, then demonstrated, and supervised while we clamped, measured, sawed, drilled and nailed and it was absolute gold. I am so much more confident now to tackle all the tasks I've been putting off!

Debra Reeves • Mar 2024

I did the basic drawing class with a friend. Helena is a great teacher - she stepped the class through several techniques that we can take away and use. Good demonstrations and lots of encouragement. I really enjoyed it.

Chelsea Hayes • Mar 2024

Lovely relaxing class with everyone working away quietly with music in the background. The class introduced basic watercolour painting techniques and was well paced. Liana guided us through painting a gum leaf in three stages, then we had time to work on our own choice of painting.

Emily Cubbins • Mar 2024

I found the course excellent. Elisa is very professional, communicates well and I walked away with knowledge and confidence on her process. I would highly recommend Elisa and her courses.

Anita Noitz • Mar 2024

Excellent beginners drawing class with Helena. She made it relaxing, fun and I would definitely recommend it.

Julie Gardner • Mar 2024

Very well paced and encouraging. A most enjoyable experience. Loved the gradual escalation of techniques.

Dee Lazaridis • Feb 2024

Loved every aspect of this workshop. Elisa has a great teaching style which created engagement from start to finish and feel I have walked away with knowledge and skills to practise and play with confidence.

I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone interested in creating some sacredness and connection in the bedroom.

Aaron Troyer • Feb 2024

Perfect class for beginners -- lots of time spent drawing and a nice amount of guidance throughout

It's a great course for someone who's either an absolute beginner in drawing or lacking confidence. Helena gave a few very helpful tips. It was also nice to have an environment that is relaxing and encouraging to focus on sketching, almost like a meditation. It's a pleasant surprise for me at the end of the night feeling "huh, I can draw something not too bad after all!"

Diana Ambrozie • Feb 2024

Feeling ever so grateful to have had the opportunity to attend the Lingam Massage class run by Elisa (and her partner). It’s mind blowing how much there is to learn and how much more complex and connected an intimate encounter with a partner can be, than whatever we have been taught to expect.

I felt the class was a truly safe space to learn in and we had ample opportunities to ask questions and learn both from the theory and from observing it being practiced by the teacher and her partner.

I’m eager to attend any further workshops held by Elise in the future and am so grateful for her sharing her knowledge and experience and creating such an open and safe space for us.

Jack Clemens • Feb 2024

Great thank you, the teachers was excellent and it was very engaging. I would do a similar course afain

Howard Tang • Feb 2024

Welcoming environment and good introduction to the basics, from one-line drawing, to outlining, to sketching and shading.

Lilly Witthoft • Feb 2024

The class was overall interesting, informative, and easy to follow. However, I was disappointed in the quality of materials provided given the class cost $110 per person. We were given "cheap" paper to use, under the premise that we can then go off and create more high quality journals after the class. But I personally did the class so I could make these journals once off.

Jenny Chan • Feb 2024

If you like papercrafts you will enjoy this class. We learnt 4 traditional Japanese book binding techniques and took home 4 books we made. The covers can be also be later decorated with a variety of coloured paper. I walked away with some good practical skills I can easily replicate at home with a small amount of tools and paper.

Rebecca Darby • Feb 2024

I bought my friend a ClassBento gift voucher for her birthday last year and she wanted to do the tufting workshop so I joined her. Helena was a wonderful instructor - clear and concise and friendly.

The steps for doing our rugs were easy to follow and I loved the finished product.

The class was definitely good value for what we received - all materials, a day and a half of workshop, the instructor's expertise.

We would do it again. Thanks Helena!

Natalie Dixon • Feb 2024

Helena is a great teacher who provides clear instructions. Class is small enough that you get enough one on one and everything you need is provided. A fun course that I highly recommend!

Belinda Logan • Feb 2024

Our teacher, Helena, was fantastic. She explained the steps clearly and you never felt rushed. The studio was a great space to work. Tufting was so much fun! Overall it was a fantastic experience.

Taylor Scaife • Feb 2024

Katie was so good! She made the day super fun and easy for us. Everyone should do this for their hens, highly recommend Thank you Katie

Ingela Furustig • Feb 2024

Was so much fun, learn the ins and outs of perfume making and made my own personalised gorgeous scent. Well worth the money!

I came to the course looking for healthier options for an immune system boost. It’s an acquired taste but I do like the flavour of the take home bottled tsukemono pickles and I’m looking forward to the bottled miso once it ferments in 3 months. If you have an interest in fermented foods then this unique class will provide a good introduction. Remember to bring a vegetable knife and chopping board for the Japanese radish, but bottles and ingredients are all provided. Jess has alot of healthy food tips that she will share with you. The E-Book received is a handy reference.

Georgia Budden • Feb 2024

Really happy with the outcome of my artwork and the tips the teacher gave for a perfect final print, although I feel calling it a Japanese class was a bit of a stretch, as I was excited to hear more about the cultural significance and background of this type of art, and given examples of Japanese-type designs. Overall the venue and experience was nice, and I'd do more classes here!

Samantha Strawhorn • Feb 2024

So much fun and learnt a lot! Organised it for my partners birthday gift and he loved it!

Tanya Matthews • Feb 2024

We had the best time! Thank you so much :) can’t wait to see our finished products in silver!

Lorena Talavera Priale • Feb 2024

Got this as my Christmas present from my partner and we went together. We had lots of fun, the tools were easy to use. I do think it's better to come to the class with a couple of ideas of what you want to make. There are some samples but that was probably the hardest bit. You get to have a few attempts and the class includes one ring but if you liked more than one you get to buy another one at a good price. Looking forward to picking them up soon! Thank you :)

Arabella Dhami • Feb 2024

Amazing class. My only issue was that the language used wasn't very inclusive. A lot of prominent sexologists (emily morse springs to mind) are now using terms like 'vulva-owner' and 'penis-owner' instead of male and female. Because we know that not every person that identifies as a man has a penis, and not all female identifying individuals have a vulva. Elisa was wonderful though and the class was very well put together. Could have been longer though! Would love a 3 hour class next time.

Sylvia Chin • Feb 2024

The class was really fun and informative! I never knew making miso and pickling vegetables could be so easy and the sample provided gave us an idea on what to expect and what we could make with our pickled vegetables and miso.
We are definitely going to try making it on our own at home. We were told that we will receive an e-book after the workshop. Would be great if we had received that on the day of the workshop or at the end of the workshop though.

Tracey Leslie • Feb 2024

Elisa shared a wealth of information in such a short time. She was engaging and normalised the uncomfortable thoughts and feelings that we all had. It was an extremely useful session and I learnt a lot about how to pleasure myself and ask my partner for what I want.

Ysabel Kershaw • Feb 2024

The atmosphere was calm and inviting, and it was great to try something new that we could take home straight away. I didn't know that we could keep the materials either, so that was a lovely surprise! The instructor was welcoming and friendly, and able to assist whenever.

Sam White • Feb 2024

Excellent teacher, very welcoming and I gained a lot of knowledge from the workshop. Great!

Rebecca R • Feb 2024

Both Helena (the instructor) and the other women at the workshop were friendly and welcoming. I learned some basic DIY skills that I can put to use for some home projects, plus I got to take home my own planter. Money well spent!

Danica Yamasato • Feb 2024

Both teachers were excellent and made for a good tag team. Class was well run and thorough. Super fun too!

I guess my only idea for something different would be that I’d love to see a few example finished pieces done well, and also with problems to get a visual understanding of what you were describing… though the verbal explanations were great!

Angela Haughey • Feb 2024

Very enjoyable day I found it a supportive environment, lots of info provided, well-timed. Would happily recommend

Trish McCudden • Feb 2024

Viv and Tom were friendly and really well informed - who knew there was so much to learn about painting furniture! From sanding to sealing these two know so much. The trip to Bunnings to choose paint was a good little intermission and the small group size (6) is just right.

Ye Yint Aung • Feb 2024

Gaston was great. He gave us a lot of valuable lessons and feedback. What I got the most out of it were the little technical things that other classes don't talk about, such as the different paints used for different mediums. He was very attentive to detail and always took the time for each of us. Thanks, G! Hope to see you at the next class.

Kerry Gemmell • Feb 2024

We had a great time. The class went at a good pace and was well explained

Sarah Elissa Willcox • Feb 2024

Excellent good subject knowledge great with people. Well presented and well prepared- handouts were food

Nami Nelson • Feb 2024

Great class led by such a friendly helpful teacher in a light filled beautiful workshop. Everyone's interest and ability were catered for and the range of pieces the class created at the end was truly beautiful. It was a great introduction to woodblock printing that I hope to continue on playing with.

The lipstick formation workshop with Tina was absolutely wonderful. We booked in for my best friends bachelorette party.
The guests all had an awesomely fun time, the bride-to-be loved it, and Tina was the real MVP.
Could not fault anything re: the venue, teacher, being able to coordinate all the little things before the date, the feel of the venue on the day. Was all just perfect!
Would absolutely recommend doing one of the available workshops here for any type of party.
100/5 star review from us.
Final shoutout to Tina - you were amazing.

Very enlightening, opening up a brave new world for me.

This class was more than the how to and birds and the bees.
Elisa was very kind and generous with her knowledge, focusing on internal factors that impacts daily life.
I felt safe to be honestly in a room full of strangers without judgement. Highly recommend

Jade Ryan • Feb 2024

I loved this class the only problem was that I wanted to keep making more! I think I've found myself a new hobby :o) Thanks Sheree!

Lauren Di Salvia • Feb 2024

Loved it! A relaxed environment to learn more about tools and woodworking. Great confidence builder. Ready to head to the hardware shop and stock up for projects. Helena was a great teacher. 10/10 would recommend.

Georgia Marett • Feb 2024

This was a fantastic class! The teacher knew everything about polymer clay and taught us enough to go on with, without getting too bogged down and not letting us play and experiment. The venue is beautiful and they had everything we could possibly need to make amazing earrings. I am so happy with what I made and can't wait to wear them. I made so many pairs that it was definitely great value for money :)

Riya Kundu • Feb 2024

Ivan's workshop was excellent. It was really accessible for someone who knew literally nothing about the mechanics of a car. He also answered everyone's burning questions. I learned a lot - thanks Ivan!

Jarrel Rivera • Feb 2024

I learned alot from the car maintenance workshop. The trainer was kind enough to respond to the students' questions.

Helen • Feb 2024

We did the class as a friends birthday outing. The teacher was lovely, we were late but she took that in her stride and quickly brought us up to speed. I loved playing with the colours and seeing how to blend them to a shade I liked. Tina was really helpful and patient. The creative feel of the venue was fun, I liked seeing other classes happening at the same time. We each took home 5 lipsticks so it seemed like good value for the time and product. I loved learning that you can make your own ethical beauty products and Tina's knowledge of the science behind them.

Alma • Feb 2024

great class and teacher. Easy to follow instructions and participants get to take home 5 tubes of lip balm. Fabulous.

Alexandra Tyrrellgraham • Feb 2024

I gave two girlfriends this class as a gift, so the three of us went together. We had so much fun and produced (with expert guidance) five lipsticks each - which we shared so had three different colours. The space is very 'warehouse cool' - a fabulous place full of creative activity. We (about 10 of us) were in a well lit room, sitting around a big table with lots of space. Tina was an excellent teacher, who supplied quality base products which she explained clearly. All in all it was a fun, good value for money way to spend part of a Sunday afternoon - and to top up your lipstick collection. Definitely recommend - in fact I'm about to buy this class for another friend

Prashant Nair • Feb 2024

Ivan is a great teacher. He explained well with practical examples along with showing a demo where applicable. Fantastic venue with various car parts on display for better understanding. Highly recommend the course.

Stephanie Reid • Feb 2024

My second time at this class as I love it so much! Kat is an excellent teacher and this is a well executed, fun experience! Highly recommend

Belinda Ross • Feb 2024

It was so informative and so much was included. Great hosts. Loved it :) Thank you

Luke David • Feb 2024

Really enjoyed the course. Ivan is super passionate and knowledgeable. Learnt heaps in a short period of time

Narelle Tunstall • Feb 2024

Fantastic workshop. Sheree’s knowledge and experience was impressive. She divided the time well between for learning from demo’s and time to experiment. Would definitely do one of her classes again.

Amy Cripps • Feb 2024

So much fun! The colours are sooo stunning and you get time to experiment so you get the shade you want Really nice texture and Tina was really knowledgeable and helpful. I definitely want to make more!

Suzanne Harper • Feb 2024

Brilliant workshop. Loved it Helena was a great instructor. So many good, practical tips. Definitely recommend.

Charlie Chan • Feb 2024

Kat is very knowledgeable with scents and had prepared a lot of ingredients for us to try in the glass

Jan Johannesen • Feb 2024

Brilliant class, loved it! After smelling different incense blends we created 4 varieties ourselves. Lovely, helpful teacher, thank you!

Caitlin Gregory • Feb 2024

Very enjoyable. Kat was a cheerful teacher & provided lovely good quality, sustainable, clean ingredients. A great way to learn the basics & inspire future creative projects! Kat encouraged us to relax & enjoy ourselves & it was nice to go at our own pace. Being able to purchase some core ingredients at the end of class was an added bonus.

Melissa Tamraz • Feb 2024

And a grand time was had by all. Brought my sister who has way more skill than I. Carla was so helpful and wonderful. Would definitely go again

Maria da Silva • Feb 2024

Ivan was passionate, engaging, knowledgeable and enthusiastically answered our questions.

Ivan gave extra time for those who could stay back the additional 20 minutes. He even fixed my car key battery which ironically went flat at the end of the workshop!

The workshop was insightful and is a great starter to everything we need to know about cars.

Thank you Ivan for running this workshop.

Mr Peter C Thorburn • Feb 2024

Fantastic experience. Went in with no knowledge, walked out confident I could create a perfume. Kat is a friendly & engaging host, very generous with her time and knowledge.

For the knowledge, access to high quality ingredients, and ability to create your own 50mL bottle, it's great value.

Lauren Buer • Feb 2024

Kat is an awesome teacher! Taking the time to help every one out and making sure everyone is happy with their creations made the class and incredibly wholesome experience xx

Grace Cliffe • Feb 2024

Amazing workshop. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone with a car. Ivan was so knowledgeable, engaging and very good natured about answering the many questions he was asked during the session. Loved it and feeling so much more confident for the next time I buy a car or need to go for a service

Penelope Charlesworth • Feb 2024

Always happy with workshop classes

Lizzy Hunter • Feb 2024

Loved this class! Gaston was a great and engaging teacher. I learnt a lot about Sign Painting but also overall technical art skills. Thank you Gaston

Ryan Brown • Feb 2024

Great course Gaston was incredibly helpful with his knowledge of paints, brush maintenance and mastering proper technique when lettering. In an industry where there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of information out there, Gaston was able to remove some of the mythology and mystique that enshrouds traditional signpainting.

Brod Jackson • Feb 2024

Gaston delivers an excellent introduction to sign painting! There was a lot to cover, but he kept it fun and approachable. After completing the one-day class, I feel like I have all the knowledge to start practicing the craft - now I just need to splash out on some brushes and setup my work space!

Plant lovers will adore this terrarium dome class. It was fascinating seeing how the plants, rocks and soil came together inside the dome. All materials were provided. There was choice of a variety of ferns and nerve plants. It was a spacious venue with a friendly dog. Teacher Helena provided easy to follow step by step guidance. I definitely will attempt to make another at home.

Beverley Lubcke • Feb 2024

My grandson Henry and my husband Tim did this course and loved it.
They compare daily to see if each others plant is going well.

Narelle Dunn • Feb 2024

Gaston was very friendly and helpful, and the class is a great introduction to sign writing. I'm excited to continue on my own.

Liz Dalgleish • Feb 2024

Gaston is an engaging and inspiring teacher! He broke down amazing details of skills and equipment needed for signwriting so smoothly we hardly noticed the time just flying by. The space is big and light yet funky: perfect!

We did terrarium building! The teacher was fantastic and we had an amazing time. $90 seems steep but we got to walk away with a handmade terrarium so wayyyy worth the price. Will be visiting the workshop again

Sim S • Jan 2024

Really encouraging teacher/facilitator, clear guidance and instruction with great approach to checking in throughout the activity. Time reminders were helpful and in a way that felt unhurried.
10/10 would attend again

Zoe Austin • Jan 2024

This class was fun and the teachers were lovely and full of knowledge. However, the class was far too large to get the help us beginners needed. The teachers tried to get to everyone and cater to everyone's needs, but everyone was at such different stages it was hard to keep up. The best bit was that you get to keep the supplies Now I have the basic understanding of it, I'll be finding videos to watch and use my new materials.

Ms Michelle Coghill • Jan 2024

Helena was wonderful and patient while sharing all of her knowledge with us. I really enjoyed the process and actually booked again for next class. Looking forward to learning more.

David Allouf • Jan 2024

I loved the class. Alex was a great teacher, demonstrated everything, was very patient and made sure everyone got some one-on-one feedback and help.

Kara Fogg • Jan 2024

We had such a wonderful time in the Sculpting for Beginners course today. It was a really great group and Alexander is a fantastic and very patient teacher (not to mention ridiculously skilled). It's such a lovely, calm setting too. So relaxing! All the tools and material we needed were provided and they were easy to get the hang of, even for a complete novice. The pace of the day felt just right. I loved how our sculptures evolved during the session and how easy it was to shift in a different direction. I'd love to keep sculpting and I feel confident that the class has given me the basic skills to continue at home (it's all about the sphere!). I enjoyed it so much that I might even do another Class Bento course or two along the way. I think it was excellent value and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who's been thinking of giving sculpting a go

Bree Murray • Jan 2024

Alexander was great. Explained everything in detail and was more than happy to provide one on one when struggling. I had a Fantastic time. Thank you.

Andrea Bosco • Jan 2024

Alexander was great, he explained everything I needed to complete my first sculpture successfully. No stress or overcomplicating instructions.

Helen Weadon • Jan 2024

Pleasant, relaxed and informative. I'm yet to see the promised emailed instructions but the seßion was definitely worth attending.

Luigi Gion • Jan 2024

The teacher Hailey was so informative a really helped me to learn about work.
I thought it was value for money and I look forward to future programs.
Great venue and all the hardware and tools required for the day were supplied.
Thank you for putting on this course I really enjoyed the course.

Tracey Robson-Garth • Jan 2024

Loved making sourdough! Learning all things fermentation, flour, water and salt.
Yummy yum yumyum.

Alison Kairns • Jan 2024

He’s was an informative friendly knowledgeable teacher. The venue was great. Materials provided were excellent
I am waiting for you to send the book that Jess said was going to be sent by you guys.
I can remember a lot of the content but would like to be able to review and consolidate the information

Brigitte Lange • Jan 2024

I really enjoyed the class! I am an enthusiastic baker but don’t have bread baking experience. The teacher is very knowledgeable , made everyone feel comfortable, and answered all our questions. She made sure we were able to successfully bake our first sourdough bread. Materials provided were perfect. I didn’t expect to take home my own banneton. The venue itself could be a bit nicer and accessible.
Highly recommend.

Steve Sewell • Jan 2024

Very impressed with the quality of the instruction provided. Lots of helpful hints and tips. Well located venue with easy walk from Collingwood station. All the products provided were high end quality. I thought best $120 I have spent to learn an exciting new skill in making great sourdough recipes. Great explanation of all processes involved and the critical factors to be considered. Baked the first loaf this morning and more than happy with my result. Thank you for a great relaxed learning environment.

Lorna Hendry • Jan 2024

I loved this workshop. Caity was very clear with her instructions and came round and helped everyone individually. The tools and notes were great and it really felt like I had everything I needed (including expert advice and hands-on help) to make what I hope is one (even two if they both work out!) lovely rings. I thought we had 2 hours, but it was 3, so I didn't feel at all rushed. The room was very spacious, the whole process was very calm and I had time to be careful and really think about what I was doing. It was unexpectedly relaxing! And there were sweet treats! Highly recommend.

Jan Johannesen • Jan 2024

A very friendly, knowledgeable and encouraging teacher who readily helped when assistance was needed. All materials supplied and I loved the quirky workshop venue. Highly recommend!

Marc Clancy • Jan 2024

Overall this class was great, Helena was incredible and I loved how she broke down each step so we all understood what to do.
However, I felt like I had to rush to finish and my final product was not as good as I would have liked.

Laura Heng • Jan 2024

Loved this class, Helena explained everything with clarity and humour. It’s given me confidence to try my own projects.

Christine Storer • Jan 2024

Great workshop! Helena was friendly, helpful, and informative. We were given a good overview of the tools used on the day. Work-Shop's space is in a great spot, easy to park nearby or a short walk from public transport options.

Really well organised session. Helena was very informative and helpful.

Great way to spend a few hours doing something different whilst learning a new skill.

Would love to have more workshops for beginners to continue honing the fundamentals and create more designs.

Adrian H • Jan 2024

I loved this class. It was well paced, clear and very enjoyable. Helena was great!

Sue Webster • Jan 2024

I absolutely loved this workshop with Helena. Helena created a relaxed vibe that put everyone at ease. She was very knowledgeable and taught us how to use all the power tools safely and confidently. I learnt a lot and love my planter box. I’m searching for woodwork projects around the home that I can create next!

Caitlin McColl • Jan 2024

AWESOME class - I learnt so much and feel really confident to try using tools at home. I’ll be recommending this class to all my female friends.

Felicia Gammella • Dec 2023

Teacher was very helpful and lovely. Workshop space was brightly lite and had plenty of room - materials given/supplied were perfect. Thank you for the new wallet/skill. It was quite fun.

Great time was had with my sister in law! I went in with some existing hand building knowledge and skills and loved the whole experience - felt like we had the freedom to take our creativity where we wanted to in the moment which I always value!

Clare Drake • Dec 2023

A great class overall! I went in with some existing knowledge but still came out feeling like I'd developed the skills to take my ideas further! Tammy was so patient with me as I ended up taking ages to finalise my design and actually dropped it off to her after the class - wonderfully accommodating!

Alicia Fernandez Franco • Dec 2023

so much fun! I didn't think we would learn so much in just a few hours, I am actually sculpting now in my free time!

Emily Chou • Dec 2023

This workshop was so much fun. We each made our own chocolate customised with our choices of spices, fruit, nuts and seeds. We learnt invaluable tips and tricks and received a recipe that can be replicated at home. Highly recommend!

Emily Chou • Dec 2023

This workshop was so much fun and informative. Tina is a wonderful teacher and generously shares lots of tips and tricks. I loved learning about cocoa butter and the other ingredients, and the tinted lip balms I took away from the workshop.

Annik de Dios • Dec 2023

Very friendly and welcoming teacher. Class was well organised- all tools were set up and there was plenty of space for people to work in. Would have loved some actual ideas to have been discussed at the beginning of the class. A 10-15 minute discussion on choosing an image would have been more beneficial than being told to use Google. So future students- come prepared with ideas by googling at home.

Such an amazing afternoon, relaxing, creative, inspiring new hobby unlocked. Would definitely recommend and bonus beautiful earrings!

Seema Gavey • Dec 2023

Great class, really enjoyed it. The teacher Cheree was fantastic and so knowledgeable. Can’t wait to make more earrings at home!

Brooke Singh • Dec 2023

I loved this class! Sheree was everything and so informative, friendly, happy and made the whole group have a great time. It was so nice to try some techniques she showed us and practice with colours, shapes and designs all with Sheree helping along the way. Definitely recommend if you've not done clay work before and want to try something new.

Nicola Brown • Dec 2023

Loved this workshop. It's given me a new past time and Helena is a wonderful instructor.

Joanna Fanos • Dec 2023

Great class and materials. Daisy is a very knowledgeable and encouraging teacher. With the materials we bought home, I’m ready to fix more broken pieces.

Abbey T • Dec 2023

What a great class! Such a great skill to learn and apply to a range of objects at home. Lots of tips, and plenty of attention from the teacher to help improve my skills. The space was inviting and had a lovely vibe about it. Highly recommend this workshop!

Mary Antonio • Dec 2023

Patient and helpful teacher with obvious expertise. Perfect venue. I enjoyed myself entirely. I’d love to join some weekly or regular classes. It’s a fabulous way to focus and leave the daily grind behind!

Nikki, Jason, Georgia, Oscar and Gabe • Dec 2023

Teacher was passionate about her craft and willing to share her knowledge …. Great way to spend an evening

Shakira Pratt • Dec 2023

Wonderful class and teacher. It was great to try something unique and learn along the way.

Aisling Wood • Dec 2023

Absolutely loved this class. The teacher was so patient and lovely. I am SO excited to pick up my cool rings, I cannot wait. Think i'll do it again!

Helen Gaulton • Dec 2023

Hi, my friend and I took this welding class as we wanted to learn about welding for art purposes. Though the class was not what we expected - this is actually construction welding we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We were by far the worst welders there, but we had a good laugh at our mistakes. The teacher was very patient with us and had to spend a bit more time with us than the other participants (we were very bad, sorry other participants). We realised we needed soldering classes, we enjoyed the class and have a better understanding of the complexities of welding. If you want to learn proper construction welding this is a good class to take.

Vicki Clark • Dec 2023

Helena thankyouwhat an amazing teacher and has the patience of a saint ! Explained everything and we could ask as many questions as we wanted. The venue was great and the equipment really good quality. I did the tufting course and will definitely be continuing with it as when a teacher is this good they make learning fun. Thankyou again. Cheers Vicki

I've been to a few of Caity's silver ring workshops, and recently attended her gemstone setting workshop,

every time I've gone in I've been surprised to learn new techniques and tools to use,

I really love that she embraces a more alternative style and encourages us to experiment with designs

Emma Luimes • Dec 2023

This was a great class and Caity is a great teacher! We got lots of resources to use and I learnt a lot.

Rebecca Winstone • Nov 2023

Enjoyable afternoon. Time went quickly. Great teacher. Inspiring and fun. I would definitely recommend doing

John Forster • Nov 2023

Daisy was an excellent teacher, very responsive to the group and engaging.
The environment was a good space for the workshop and everything you needed for modern day Kintsugi was supplied. Great fun and good value.
Thanks to the team and especially Helena for the booking support!
warm regards
John

Greta Walters • Nov 2023

Really fun and wholesome activity. Relaxed vibes in studio, and adorable dog was a bonus

Erica Lacorcia • Nov 2023

The venue was great and I loved the dog as an added feature!
Helena was very welcoming and the teacher Daisy was so helpful, happy and friendly as well as very competent and confident in explaining the process.
It was interesting to see how the other participants managed their pieces as well.
The process and the outcomes are fascinating!

Nettie Handley • Nov 2023

Thank you for such a well prepared, fully thought through workshop.
Helena was great at explaining all the basics, and expertly led us through to create our own fully usable planter box in the 3 hours allocated!
I look forward to joining other workshops in the future.

Ro Lynagh • Nov 2023

Helena was an excellent teacher giving us the confidence to take on our diy projects. Loved being able to show up with just myself and being provided with all the tools and materials. Finally I have a license to drill!

Ryan Hodgman • Nov 2023

Helena was super friendly and welcoming, and the venue was airy and lush with greenery that made the space feel fun to be in. The materials were quality and straightforward to use, and everyone present had a lot of fun.

The class was very expensive, seemingly 4-5x moreso than the (guessed) material cost. It's not clear that this was good value for money, though we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Looking forward to returning for another class sometime!

Liora Jacoby • Nov 2023

I had a lovely time learning techniques to sketch a portrait. Arabella our teacher was lovely and under her guidance we all came back with beautiful portraits.

Gemma Burnside • Nov 2023

Great class - very informative! Have now confidently made a few sourdough loaves that have turned out great. The one I made in class I kind of messed up but with the learnings from class and the e-book my second and third loaves I have made solo have been great. Would highly recommend.

Jessica Solla • Nov 2023

Super friendly and available but not overbearing teacher. Flexible class allowed us to make extra rings where time permitted (cost of silver was understandably extra). Plus the lollipops were a nice touch. Would recommend and go back!

Emily Penn-Tonkin • Nov 2023

Great workshop!
The teacher, Jess is extremely informative and knowledgeable and explains the basics (and more) in a condensed timeframe. It was simplified in a way that is great for people starting out or wanting to get back into baking sourdough.
Would highly recommend this class.

Lily Zendel • Nov 2023

Very informative session! The teacher knows what she is talking about.
We learned a lot about the process.
We got our own starter and basket with the mixture with us and we are going to bake it the next day.

Priscilla Teng • Oct 2023

Our teacher was very friendly and encouraging, and answered all questions. The equipment was suitable for beginners and the cheat sheet was very handy. Overall an enjoyable class (I could have easily stayed longer) and a gentle introduction to watercolour for beginners.

Yvonne Anagnostidis • Oct 2023

Teacher, Helena was friendly and greeted us on arrival. . The instructions was easy to understand. The venue was great and very spacious. Learnt alot about the various tools used. Thankyou.

Catherine John • Oct 2023

Organised, encouraging , patient , good humoured and responsible teaching .
Instructions on safety precautions and step by step demonstrations of how to construct the planter box were clear and well delivered.

Jacqui Edser • Oct 2023

Helena was amazing, offering to help with set up the moment we arrived and assisting in every way she could. Helena provided great instruction and was very kind with everyone's questions. Initially we all thought chocolate and lipstick made no sense but having now done it, it makes so much sense and the time flies! Great value for money having walked away with a snack and 10 lipsticks all in different colours after trading with everyone there. The Bride to Be was very happy with the surprise and feedback from guests has been very positive. venue is a great space, there are two flights of stairs on entry but overall clean and huge!

Anonymised ClassBento student • Oct 2023

Helena is such an excellent educator: everything was clearly explained, included really important and practical information that might not otherwise be evident about doing things well and keeping safe - and also the kinds of things we might see out in the world that we should be wary of. I learnt loads and now feel slightly less petrified of using tools that can dismember me.

Marita Conheady-Barker • Oct 2023

Our teacher was calm, efficient and a very good communicator. The venue was perfect for the class and everything was prepared so time was not wasted. I would recommend this class to anyone. Her equipment trolley showed her commitment and thought that she had put I to developing the class.

Jane Moroney • Oct 2023

I had the best time at the Handy Woman class! Helena was full of helpful information & advice, and her instructions were clear, and easy to follow. I can’t wait to put my new skills in action!

Natalie Billias • Oct 2023

What a fantastic class! Tina was very knowledgable, patient and kind. I would recommend this to anyone interested in learning how to make chocolate – it was delicious. Thank you for the lovely class Tina :)

Lucy Clark • Oct 2023

This class was fantastic! Exactly what I hoped it would be. I’ve always considered myself “handy” (with very little to back this up) and it was great to get confident with some new tools and better on tools I thought I was across. I was nervous about going by myself, but it was the most welcoming wonderful environment. I couldn’t recommend this higher. More classes please! Thanks Helena, you’re the best.

Alex Stead • Oct 2023

What a fabulous workshop. We did this nipple tassle making workshop for our friend hens and it was so much fun. Loved that we could bring all our own drinks and food (but Helena provided all glassware and tables). The workshop itself was super fun. Emma was a brilliant teacher and we can’t wait to wear our pasties

Naina Knoess • Oct 2023

Absolutely fabulous- fun as well as informative. Great teacher with the expertise and sunny disposition as a bonus!

Judith Hoffmann • Oct 2023

Ivan was an engaging communicator and teacher. He answered questions thoughtfully and patiently. The content was just right with a good balance of knowledge and show and tell. Great venues. Great value for money. Highly recommended. Thanks Ivan.

Helena Trang • Oct 2023

Highly recommend this course, it was very well structured and run course that had the right level of detail for a beginner. It had really useful information on what preventative maintenance can be done as well as what to look out for and be informed on when servicing cars. I would recommend to anyone who drives and/or owns a car.

Beydan Abdi • Oct 2023

He answered all the questions and it was really engaging. You’ve got nothing to lose attending this workshop

Sara • Oct 2023

A fantastic class run by Helena who shared her tips and tricks brought about by extensive experience working with the medium. It was great to get advice on best materials and tools to use if you were thinking about doing this at home and every hands on demo was clear and easy to follow. The space itself was great and welcoming and there were snacks and a tea/coffee station if you needed some extra energy while tufting. Helena also roamed around the room pretty regularly and was really great at troubleshooting! Also she was more than happy to help you out with achieving your chosen design and helping tuft/trim. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to start up tufting at home or even looking for a great one-off tufting experience!

Jason Lee • Oct 2023

Ivan left me feeling a lot more confident maintaining my new and old car after the 4 hour session. He was very informative, shared plenty of tips, showed us the most important things to know and how to identify car maintenance parts!

Wished there were more courses in Melbourne that actually educated us like this!

Kate Burke • Oct 2023

Ivan gave a great workshop on all working parts of a car, and the importance of preventative maintenance to keep cars running well and avoiding breakdowns. He was super engaging and the class was great value for money, would highly recommend for anyone who want's to know a bit more about how your car works and what your mechanic is doing each service!

Graeme Wurm • Oct 2023

2 ClassBento workshops attended • 2 reviews

Good venue in an active workshop. Very good teacher, very engaged with his subject. Not so much about how to fix small problems as be more conversant with your mechanic and understand the process better. Emphasis is on regular servicing and looking after your car properly. Learnt quite a few useful things that I'll be able to use in the future.

Jack Gromer • Oct 2023

Karen Durso • Oct 2023

Great knowledge and attention to detail. Would be great if a more advanced course was available.

Amanda Louey • Oct 2023

Really great class. Ivan is knowledgeable and passionate. The class was great for people with no knowledge but would also be interesting for people with some interest in cars. Would highly recommend!

Christopher • Oct 2023

Great way to spend an evening for anyone interested in sourdough, or even just baking in general! You get so much great information on the subject - including all the do's and don't's of sourdough - from a teacher who clearly has a depth of experience and knowledge in the area. But I also had such good fun just working alongside a group of like-minded baker's for a few hours.

Really looking forward to getting my first sourdough loaf, prepped and readied for baking during the class, into the oven in the morning!

Michael Ferris • Oct 2023

This was a great introduction to Tarot Reading. The teacher was knowledgeable & personable, which made the class a relaxing experience in an easygoing environment. I would definitely recommend it as a starting point to the path of learning about Tarot cards and performing readings.

Carol Lima • Oct 2023

Helena the teacher was Amazing, very good at explaining and assisting, friendly and warm hearted. The location was awesome, and the experience was fun and engaging .

The course was enjoyable and the teacher was good. Clear instructions. But too many people on the course so she was spread too thinly to provide adequate guidance and support. She also failed to email the instructions after the course, as she promised.

Helena is the sweetest teacher I've come across so far! She is very patient and goes through every step with care. I had a great time learning to make my own planter pot and was very inspired by the class. Big plus was to do it with the cutest pup in the studio!

Just a month I did a Kintsugi workshop in Albert Park and it was an excellent introduction to this unique craft. Unfortunately, I didn’t know that Modern Kintsugi is a lot more basic and does not require many skills.
The website doesn’t explain much about the difference between the two styles and I thought I would learn more, but in reality, I was presented with a very simple way to apply this craft. I left after the first 30 minutes after I realised, I had nothing to learn at this modern technic class.
It is only suitable for the first new students.

Rachael Roberts • Sep 2023

Well paced class with clear step-by-step instructions. The teacher was friendly and talked us through different materials and techniques throughout the class. I decided to try my own design and sketch for the lino cut which worked out better than I anticipated!

Josephine Gagliardi • Sep 2023

I absolutely loved my experience doing 'How to Handywoman' at the Work-Shop. Helena was an amazing teacher and I learnt so much. I went in a very green beginner but now feel more confident going into a hardware store and knowing what tools to get and how to use them. The venue was lovely too and easy to get to and the small class size was just right.

Josephine El Srouji • Sep 2023

Clear and easy instructions about how to use the tools and great guidance through the process to finish the project!

Excellent class. It was very interesting, well run and organised; instructions were provided clearly by the instructor and the length of time for the workshop was perfect- I would definitely recommend it!

Maryam Mostofi • Sep 2023

Really enjoyed the 3 hour workshop with Helena! She explained every detail step by step, and was always there to help every individual!
The gust of honour, Mr.Doggo also checked in on our work and made the class even more fun

Katherine Hunt • Sep 2023

Helena was a fantastic teacher. She went through the basics of measuring, using a jigsaw, a drill and even a hammer, with so many useful tips on tools that I thought I knew how to use!
This class has given me the confidence to do my own projects now.

I enjoyed the class, the teacher shared some easy to follow instructions, next time maybe we can use bigger mold and maybe double the recipe (for the price we paid for the class) so we can make more attractive better design for the soap

Elly Freer • Sep 2023

I had a great time, found it very informative and fun and was a fun group of people :)

Claudia Soler • Sep 2023

Loved the class! Most of us were designers so the class got more in depth about the techniques etc which was what I was interested in. However Gaston modifies the class to suit the needs of the group - so if there’s anything you are wanting to learn be sure to tell him. The class is focused on giving you the knowledge to go home and continue with your practice. Materials were provided and the space was beautiful. Thanks so much! Would be interested in further workshops!

The class was super helpful for me as an aspiring sign writer. Gaston has a great way of teaching and is open to all questions :)

Dion Avro • Sep 2023

Gaston was fun and very chrazimatick. I think maybe trye different brushes would o fbeen food

Olivia Flower • Sep 2023

I was gifted this class for my birthday as I’ve already wanted to learn how to tuft but I didn’t want to spend the money on equipment and find I didn’t like it !
Helena was LOVELY and so generous with her knowledge and advice throughout the process - I appreciated her honesty when it came to getting into the craft (expenses/things to consider) and her obvious passion and excitement for the craft was contagious.
Incredible communication before and after the class, and I’m so excited to come back and try some other workshops at the venue !

This is the second time I've tried to learn about sourdough - and I am much more confident that I can manage after this class. Practical with straightforward advice - making it clear what is important. I've been able to keep my starter (Harry) alive and have made a few loaves that have gone down a treat. Thanks

Chris Capetanakis • Sep 2023

Gaston is a great teacher, he is knowledgeable, skilled and patient. His passion is clear. The class is very satisfying creating something by hand is rewarding in a time when we spend so much time in front of screens.

Elly Freer • Sep 2023

I had a great time, found it very informative and fun and was a fun group of people :)

I really enjoyed this class. The space was nice and open, and easily accessible by public transport. Helena was a really great instructor who was welcoming, and provided really good practical instruction and tips.
Everything was provided and the time allowed was appropriate for the piece we created.
Definitely recommend!

Felicia Savvopoulos • Sep 2023

Great class! Had waitlisted this class for ages and was ecstatic when it became available - was not disappointed at all.
Gaston was a great teacher - a fountain of sign painting knowledge, and super charismatic. All materials were provided by Gaston, and he advised us on next steps if keen on purchasing materials to pursue practice of sign painting in future.
The class was highly hands on, with intermittent demos on how to correct technique and for the teacher to answer our burning questions through the process. I left feeling equipped to explore sign painting in my own time, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Thank you Gaston and Work-Shop!

Tim Boreham • Sep 2023

Gaston was an amazing communicator and passionate teacher . Absolutely loved the class and can’t wait to start my sign painting journey

Gerrit Langelaar • Sep 2023

I’ve always wanted to learn sign painting techniques and it’s rare to find opportunities learn it in Sydney. Having Gaston fly from Melbourne is such a privilege! Not only is he deeply passionate about sign painting, he also has an excellent teaching style including giving every person plenty of one-on-one assistance. Gaston has so much depth and breadth of knowledge in this specialist skillset - it’s super unique. I learnt so much in one day that I feel confident trying more fonts on my own at home. I also made friends in the class (we’re going to practise together). The venue was lovely too - spacious, airy, with loads of free street parking. I hope there’s a continuers class sometime soon. Thanks to both Gaston & the venue for an awesome day! A super worthwhile experience. I will be bringing friends with me next time.

Had a great class today with gas done. He’s very knowledgeable and customised his feedback based on our strengths and weaknesses. Got a great sign at the end of the workshop very happy!

Tiziana Russo • Sep 2023

Love the teaching, very knowledgeable great approach. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening and I will master the basics and well go back to-do the master class Hopefully

Adam Cusick • Sep 2023

Was very informative and great that we got the starter and banneton bowl to take home. It would have been good if the teacher brought in some bread she'd baked before the class so we could taste the final product. Also would have been good if we were given a recipe during the class so we could follow along with the process. Was finished in about 2 hours.

Venessa Fay • Sep 2023

Wonderful experience! Bread is something I haven’t been able to master, and this course was full of valuable information and hands on experience to help me perfect sourdough. Having Jess there to show me where things needed tweaking was incredible and I feel much more confident now.

Taylah Hunn • Sep 2023

I had so much fun. And hopefully i make a good batch of sourdough tomorrow

Arlene Scurville • Sep 2023

My husband and I did enjoy the succulent Terrarium Making Class. However, we were under the impression that we would get plants as shown in the picture - succulents.

Eve Haddow • Sep 2023

Had a fantastic time at the silver ring making class. Very inclusive and knowledgeable teacher, and the Workshop venue in Paddington is a great space for a creative morning. Would recommend.

Leah • Sep 2023

The teacher was super friendly and the vibe of the entire workshop was really lovely and laidback. Really loved having the freedom to choose our own plants and decorative rocks etc. It was a simple, quick and easy workshop!

Jenny Macd • Sep 2023

A few points to note
- the teacher was approachable and generous with materials
- the venue was openly spaced and airy, however the steps were a little harder to navigate!
- the materials supplied were good, however we thought it was a succulent terrarium, which was the attraction initially, but we were supplied with ferns and climbers. They were lovely, just not what we had expected.
- the 1.5 hour time was p0lanty and we were not pushed. Most of us were finished in about 50 minutes.

Jac • Aug 2023

Kat was a wealth of knowledge about incense making and good scent combinations. Our incense smells so good throughout the house :)

Sian Truasheim • Aug 2023

Ian was a wonderful teacher, and all of the information provided was very helpful. We appreciated his enthusiasm and knowledge.

Lesley Pullen • Aug 2023

I really enjoyed this session. Helena was a patient and knowledgeable teacher. Her instructions were clear and comprehensive and she was very encouraging of 'newbies'. While I have some power tools at home, I now fell confident and more competent to use them. Plus, I learnt how to hammer in a nail properly - a skill not to be underestimated

All the materials were provided and were of good quality and the power tools we used were in very good condition. It was great value for money as we got to make a planter box which I will paint up at home for a new plant.

The venue was reasonably easy to get to and parking worked out fine.
Apart from all the new skills I learnt, Sash the dog was a added bonus :)

Looking forward to the tiling course Helena will hopefully run soon.

I enjoyed the workshop so much! Helena is very approachable. She explains things from the very basics, to pro tips and tricks, which is exactly what I need. As someone who's not handy and didn't grow up in a household where people often pick up the basics, I often feel no clue where to start or what to even ask, but Helena makes it a no guilt, no shame, no judgement safe space to just learn. After this workshop, I feel woodwork is quite fun, and the woodwork skills are totally achievable. I'm planning to buy some of the tools used in the workshop! Now I feel like at least I know what I'm looking for in Bunnings :)

Suellen Greaves • Aug 2023

I loved every minute of this course. Ian Driver kept the terminology simple and not scientific which made it easy to understand. Great content with such interesting information. I loved the hands-on component of making our own bee hotel. The venue was easy to find although a little noisy at times.

Kate Kay • Aug 2023

Well planned, appropriately pitched to the attendees. Helena is brilliant and affirming in the way she teaches new skills to naive students and gives encouragement and positive feedback. Loved the way that supplies had been partially constructed to ensure we completed the work in the limitations of the class duration.
This is the class and instructor that I have been looking for. At first I thought it was a little expensive, but now I know all the tools & materials supplied, I would even pay a bit more for this excellent class. Looking forward to the advanced classes and anything else that Helena teaches

Christine Roden • Aug 2023

It was a great class, and Helena did an amazing job. It's a beginner course and she gave us a really solid foundation in the basics and created a comfortable welcoming environment. I feel confident to tackle DIY tasks now. It was super helpful to learn techniques and how to do things correctly and professionally. Plus it was fun. I can't wait for the next one. I highly recommend this class if you want to get some skills and knowledge around using tools and taking on handywoman or diy projects.

Alan Evans • Aug 2023

Great experience, even better than I thought it would be.
Our teacher was so enthusiastic and his love for all bees shone through.
We can’t wait to get started.
Many thanks Alan and Jayne.
Ps. Would definitely recommend this course to anyone!

Megan Brill • Aug 2023

So great to attend a workshop with Ian. He knows his stuff for sure and his passion for native bees is so infectious! Great workshop! Thank you

Laura • Aug 2023

Great teacher, such an informative couple of hours going into the importance of engaging content creation and how to come up with creative ideas. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to level up their social media for a business. I learnt so much, thank you!

George Kotsiras • Aug 2023

Great presenter , clarity and wealth of knowledge . Would recommend it to anyone wanting to learn the secrets about content creating .

Justine Kain • Aug 2023

I had a fantastic time at this workshop! Michelle was great - she spent time up the front of the class to explain and demonstrate the skills that we were learning, and also spent time walking around the class to check on each person individually and answer any questions or provide guidance that was requested/needed. I am so proud of myself and the books that I created in this class

Jasheel Reddy • Aug 2023

K Whiting • Aug 2023

Kat was an excellent teacher and an expert in her field! My favourite part of the class was learning about the different scents, ingredients and how to combine them. Creating a custom scent was super special and now I can enjoy this in my own home! I loved the hands on nature of combining and rolling the incense, very mindful. I highly recommend this class :)

My teacher, Michelle, for the book binding was incredibly knowledgable about not only book binding in general but many other topics that were related. She was very interesting and her instructions were thorough. She attended to each student's needs and questions calmly as they arose. It was really nice to go to a course and have everything supplied for you and leave with a little packet of treasures you made. I will be looking on your website for further courses if this is one to go by. Great quality course. Thanks.

Katherine Jackman • Aug 2023

Class was good but there was not a lot of assistance after the initial intro. Teacher was not available much to ask questions. Also lot of focus was on where to buy supplies moving forward which seemed unnecessary.

Monika Tasani • Aug 2023

Hélène is friendly, patient and full of knowledge about tufting. She was very helpful and supportive when you run into problems. Amazing class and highly recommend. Tufting is soo much fun !

Alaine Thompson • Aug 2023

Daisy is an amazing teacher with a wealth of experience. Did this Kintsugi workshop with a friend. We went op-shopping before to pick out some fun, unique pieces and they turned out so much better than I expected!

Vicki Singleton • Aug 2023

Michelle taught us how to create 4 different styles of Japanese book-binding, as well as teaching us about necessary equipment and techniques for hand book-binding in general. She obviously loves sharing her knowledge and created a relaxed and supportive environment for us all. I was glad I attended!

Felicity Ruby • Aug 2023

Rod Williamson • Aug 2023

I found it to be a good starting point for someone who has never welded before.
The teacher was helpful and informative
Plenty of materials to use.

Lesley Gillis • Aug 2023

Fabulous workshop. All materials supplied even aprons for the potential ink contact with clothing. Our instructor was readily available to assist with queries and provide instruction and assistance to everyone in the class. Thoroughly enjoyed my time and learned new techniques, which are always useful. Many of the students produced a lovely wood cut at the end of the lesson. Would attend further workshops.

Thanks for making it worth the time and money.
Best of all, I have a beautiful product to take home with me. Now to keep it alive :)

Yvonne Goh • Aug 2023

Teacher was friendly and funny. I liked the succinct and informative introduction before letting us get lost in making our own terrarium.

Cath McNamara • Aug 2023

Great teacher, great venue, great value for money. Too many people in the class - when we needed extra help at the end there weren’t enough ink stations set up and we had to wait for help. I’m really happy with what I made. Thanks

Dawn Roughsedge • Aug 2023

Excellent course. Helena, the instructor, went through each process/tool step by step and covered all the basics very thoroughly. A great teacher, approachable and helpful. I gained a lot of confidence. Highly recommend.

Zosia Stockwell • Aug 2023

Really great workshop for beginners and filled with so much information to get the most out of your tools and projects.
Helena was great! Very approachable and explained everything clearly and with so much detail. Really enjoyed it!

Kathryn Reid • Aug 2023

Sheree was an incredible teacher who made the workshop fun, engaging and creative! She was thorough in her explanations and made it easy to understand. The earrings I made were so easy because Sheree made the process easy! Absolutely loved this and would definitely do it again!

Nova Stewardson • Aug 2023

The class was so relaxing & inspiring. The teacher was lovely. It was a really lovely weekend, very grateful & was a lovely way to spend my birthday! I love my rug

Natasha Walden • Jul 2023

Wowsers! I was so pumped for this!
If you're familiar with Sheree from Polly Collective via social media then she is everything you expect she will be and more! The venue is great and the workshop was fun, informative and creative! It is so awesome to be surrounded by creative people and be able to learn from them and Sheree while doing your thang! You are set up for success from the beginning, are free to go rogue or follow the fold and just let your creative juices run wild. You have access to just the right amount of clay for it not to be too overwhelming, tools, tiles, notes etc. and even get to see any of your finished work baked to perfection. Sheree covers everything from getting started to finishing off your pieces ready for wearing. Thanks so much for an amazing afternoon ladies with extra sprinklings of special thanks to Sheree and Kubra for being so rocking awesome!

Priscila Ortega • Jul 2023

It was a good experience; Roxanna is very lovely, she explained well. And then she goes around, and you can ask as many questions as you like during the process. You have plenty of time to make your ring. I enjoyed it, and I would do it again

Zoe Fotinos • Jul 2023

Really enjoyed the workshop and the space. The instructor was super helpful and patient. Definitely would recommend.

Hayley Mitchell • Jul 2023

This was a very therapeutic workshop and sheree is an amazing mentor.
We were given the basic knowledge on how to condition clay, different techniques on creating a slab, tips and tricks and how to finish a peice. We were all given free range to create whatever we desired and help was there if needed.
This was an inspiring afternoon for me and just pushes me to continue with this creativity. The art is endless with what you can create
Was a great vibe and a very calming space to be in

Kay Salehi • Jul 2023

Alasandro is a wonderful teacher, the class went at a good speed and he allowed each student to develop their own unique style while keeping everyone tgether. I highly recommend this fun and engaging sculpture class

The structure of the class was broken into sections and Helena made sure everyone was comfortable with the next steps before beginning as well as making the class fun.
Definitely will be looking into more workshops like this one

Louise Francis • Jul 2023

Loved it. I learnt so much and the teacher was great at explaining each step. I’m looking forward to more classes for the handywoman

Ej Campbell • Jul 2023

The teacher, Daisy, was lovely and calm, and gave a clear explanation and demonstration at the start of the lesson. Lots of time to work on pieces and the confidence to keep going at home.
I purchased the extra ceramics when I booked the class, plus also purchased a couple of my own from the Op shop to break when I got there. The ceramics purchased from Daisy were of excellent quality and very beautiful.

Greg Sparrius • Jul 2023

The class was a great introduction to wild mushrooms and foraging. "Fraulein Fungi" made the class fun and interesting, and we loved discovering how to make a tasty mushy meal at the end! Now to find a basket and knife and hit the hills knowing how to be respectful of the environment and some basic identification skills to not get poisoned! Definitely recommended as a starter to learning more.

Jolene Williams • Jul 2023

The Japanese painting class was great. Dianne explained and demonstrated so many different techniques. All materials were provided. For those that find art challenging (me!), Dianne was happy to show the techniques and give advice numerous times. There was no pressure. It was very relaxed and enjoyable.

Hello I have already sent in a review on my phone. but it may not have gone through as I have received another review request.
My granddaughter is 14 years old and was excited to attend the workshop with me, a fun-RELAXING thing to do together. my granddaughter has had a very difficult past few months, has not been sleeping, and as she works two shifts a week and is A grades student and half of these classes are Extension classes that require extra study and exams, she is tired by the weekend, she injured her ankle but can only take strong pain medication on the weekend otherwise it slows her too much to study. She yawned during a demonstration and had to go and sit down- later when we got in the car my granddaughter said the teacher ignored her for half the class. I said that she yawned. the girl said crying that the teacher didn't know what she had been through, and she was exhausted and in pain. people shouldn't judge others. The girl was excited about the bird painting she was doing , and said she wanted to give the card to her mum. the teacher took a paintbrush and corrected the birds head, without asking, also took all the paint brushes out of the water dish and put them on the table, wetting the other card she had painted with fish- both cards on the water colour paper were now changed. the girls hands were shaking, very upset. the teacher said the paint was too thick, the teenager had been having fun using her fingers to add texture to her painting- do not touch peoples artwork unless you ask. they may like it as it is, once YOU TOUCH IT is no longer their creation.

This class was amazing! Helena presented safety in an engaging and informative approach that can be applied to other tools (sometimes safety briefings can come across as patronizing and boring, but this was not the case at all). One of my favorite aspects of this course was how she was explicit about how women can use their bodies in various ways to achieve results in more efficient ways. Another great teaching strategy Helena implemented in this class was instructing us in parts and also allowing us to hold the tools while she spoke about them. Great class and look forward to more opportunities to learn from Helena again!

Thanks for a great morning, very worth while

Kelly Nicol • Jul 2023

Totally worth the time and money. Teacher and space were great. I went in not knowing anything and now know basic tools and processes for small projects and have the confidence to do them. I would recommend this for anyone who wants some help getting started with small DIY jobs.

Margaret Latham • Jul 2023

The class content was good but the class was too large for the space, and there wasnt enough equipment (blenders). The fact that the warehouse was open to the elements made the room very cold a good summer activity, but not for winter.
I still haven't received the class notes that were promised.

Anne Leeson • Jul 2023

Michelle was really well organised and a very enthusiastic and informed teacher. The class was lots of hands on fun with the chance to take our work home. I was a little concerned about tipping our left over water into the back lane as it still had quite a lot of pulp in it. Perhaps some colanders would help avoid the mess and potential blocked drainage

Michelle was easy going, she was very relaxed and allowed us to experiment, giving ideas or opinions when asked. We obviously followed her initial instructions but she then let us play around and test things. she was approachable for any questions.
Venue was quirky and there was plenty of space and all equipment supplied.

Nicola Hogan • Jul 2023

Terrific course. Helena was an absolute legend - patient, knowledgeable and created a really nice, relaxed vibe for everyone. Perfect balance of instruction and leaving you to it. Can't believe we made the whole rug in a day and a half! Was really happy w final product, despite being a total beginner. Am hooked now. The space was also lovely and the resident artist/doggy was awesome. Did it with a mate but could also easily be done solo. Highly recommended.

Sophie Whittakers • Jul 2023

This was such a brilliant class! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fun and interesting new crafting activity. Helena was awesome and super generous with her knowledge and experience.

My partner and I did the workshop a couple of weeks ago. We thoroughly enjoyed it and learned heaps of useful and practical tips. We have no particular interest in cars other than wanting to be more confident and capable and walked away with a solid working understanding of the core basics. Ivan clearly knows his stuff, but he's also an excellent and engaging technical communicator. Very beginner friendly and excellent value for money.

The class was fantastic, it was very engaging and hands on. All the tools and materials were provided. The teacher was super supportive, funny and engaging, it was great to have his expertise in order to learn the fundamentals of sculpture. I would like to continue doing more classes with this teacher and learning more.

Barry Mitchell • Jun 2023

I really enjoyed the course. Very casual and relax environment. Gave me the confidence to pursue welding a bit further. We did have eight people on the course so had to share the station with a partner which was the only “negative” as we only had half the scheduled time to work out any shortcomings.

Great fun and an engaging day. Enjoyed learning to use tools to sculpt. Friendly people and the space has a positive and relaxed vibe. Alex is a talented sculptor who can also teach others the knowledge and skills he has. The results were impressive and everyone completed an individual piece. Lots of smiles at the end of the day.

Ebony Butterworth • Jun 2023

The atmosphere was comfortable and very appropriate for getting into some fun craft. Daisy was very welcoming, friendly and helpful throughout the class, ensuring she gave everyone enough help and support with their project.
I had quite a complex piece, so daisy gave me a little extra bits and tips on how I could finish it at home, which I'm so grateful for.
The Kintsugi class was a great activity to appreciate and give new life to our precious imperfect ceramics ❤️

Claudia Somaroo • Jun 2023

Thanks for your class, I have learnt so much and feel like I could retain this info for years to come! Helena was warm and explained all the steps in a way that is easy for complete beginners. All the materials were provided and class was conducted in a safe manner - no trips to the hospital. I would recommend this class to everyone :)

Naiomi Nielson • Jun 2023

Daisy was lovely and very clear with instructions but also gentle and easy to follow , the Kintsugi workshop was a lot of fun can't wait to do more.

A really therapeutic learning experience and so much fun! Lots of help and instructions from teacher and the end result was better than expected
Thankyou!

Kaila Bianco • Jun 2023

My mum and I loved this class. We found it very therapeutic. Our teacher, Daisy, was so helpful and patient with us. Her instructions were simple and easy to follow. This class has made us very excited to do this in our own time, and we loved that we were able to take home any remaining glue and gold pigment to continue this activity at home!

Alexis Wildman • Jun 2023

Good bit of fun if you're keen to just get straight into some practice/practical.
But in all honesty I have learnt more from YouTube videos about the actual basics of welding.
This course is probably not for beginners - knowledge required.

Summer Bowen • Jun 2023

Great teacher and venue, lots of fun, great to have materials to take home. Thank you!

Kathryn Harding • Jun 2023

The basics of each tool we used was covered very well and I left knowing so much more basic skills.

Tania Shaw • Jun 2023

Well explained, good emphasis on safety, practical tips. Would recommend! Hopefully there will be intermediate and advanced classes too.

Annie Forbes • Jun 2023

I’m very new to oil painting, and after a few frustrating attempts at home with YouTube videos, this class was a great way to learn where and how to start! Arabella was warm and encouraging, and the whole class had a relaxed atmosphere and was thoroughly enjoyable! Thanks Arabella!

Bethany Phan • Jun 2023

Great experience learning oil painting. The teacher had lots of knowledge to share and I now feel confident to keep oil painting at home. The facility was a nice environment and it was nice to connect with other people during the class. Was a great mix of skill and experience but everyone did a great job

Sophie Miller • Jun 2023

This was a great class! The teacher was so kind, funny and helpful. She taught us all of the basics of calligraphy and spent one on one time with everyone too.

Wonderful class. Great teacher. Definitely encourage anyone interested in learning the basics of watercolour to do this class. Lots of simple but effective tips and tricks. Thank you so much. Loved it.

Girish Gupta • Jun 2023

My daughter and I attended this course over the past weekend, and we acquired a wealth of practical knowledge that is essential for all car owners. I highly recommend this course to fathers with 17-year-olds looking to purchase their next car, as well as anyone interested in learning more about proper car maintenance and care from both the owner's and mechanic's perspectives.
The Azzco team did an exceptional job, and we thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience.

Fun workshop that allows you to have the freedom to be creative, although it's not much of a class as the workshop leaves you to your own for most of the time. The teachers walk about checking in and helping people. I wish there were more options for the colour base of the cat, otherwise there's plenty of options for the detailing of the cat. Time flies by really quickly, and it's nice to see other people's finished work at the end of the class. Would be fun if you go with a group of friends! You can also put batteries in the cat so the arm moves :D

Graeme Brazenor • Jun 2023

Teacher was perfect in manner, delivery and what she chose to impart. Brushes and oils, easel and medium excellent for the exercise. Perfect length. Can't recommend too highly.

Sheila Medina • Jun 2023

Ivan was very accommodating to the class' questions. He was also able to reference reasons why we were there as he discussed scenarios during the session. It's a highly recommended 4-hour class not only to car enthusiasts but also to those who drive but have no idea at all of what is happening inside their cars. One of the best Mothers' Day present I have received.

Great experience as the teacher guided us well, spent time showing how to weld and then observed

Cindy Chan • May 2023

The class was fantastic and super fun, Helena the instructor is very knowledgeable and kept the class ticking along at a good pace. Myself and 3 friends came away with gorgeous looking rugs
Some tips as a newbie
- If you have long hair, make sure you tie it up
- Print out a design to the dimensions of the rug beforehand so you can trace it on the canvas.
- Pick a design that’s not too complicated with lots of detail work
…and have fun!

Courtney Sutton • May 2023

It was a lovely arvo with a small class (around 10 people) in a cute industrial space in Fitzroy. The teacher was very experienced and working in the field and had lots of knowledge to pass on. Getting a quill and ink included, as well as practice sheets to take home was fab. A great way to spend a few chilled hours learning to ink fonts in a calming way (was a great in-between lockdown activity)

What a wonderful class. So much fun, wonderful teacher and a great little bunch of people. The small class was great and allowed for questions and casual conversation. Highly recommend! So many people have commented on the wonderful Kokedama I made and I'm so glad to have this new skill. Such an easy and thoughtful gift when you know how.

Warwick Hutton • May 2023

Friendly, approachable teacher, started with theory but quickly got into the practical which was great. Plenty of experience but kept it pretty basic since it was a beginners class.
Bit disappointing we started 30min late as were waiting for 6 people that never turned up, however still enough time on the welders.

Neeti Bekele • May 2023

Alexander was a fantastic teacher. I’m very happy with my very first sculpture! I will definitely be recommending this class to friends :)

Greg Riley • May 2023

Class was stress free, fun and Alex was a great teacher - excellent value for money

Craig Leggat • May 2023

Dave was a great instructor. Knowledgeable, patient, funny and friendly. A great course. I went from zero knowledge and zero experience to being able to safely use the equipment and even made a few simple structures and a Picasso cow !

Kal McShortall • May 2023

I had a really awesome time! A lot of really good information to get me started with foraging and I got a lot of questions Ive been curious about for a long time answered! This class definitely got me even more excited about mycology! I had a blast!

It was great to make some new memories with my partner and I in the workshop with Chet. He was personable, told some great stories and great to chat to throughout. We met some new friends and walked away with a new skill that will do time and time again.

Liliana Popovici • May 2023

Genuinely impressed with the wealth of knowledge and quality of content that I have experienced during the class. The level of expertise and valuable insights inspired confidence for even those who are less familiar with the shrooms can grasp the information provided effectively. It's been an absolute please being part of the class, highly recommended.

Misha Sim • May 2023

Amazing! Cool space and knowledgeable teacher. Very fun to eat the mushrooms at the end!

Serena Huh • May 2023

The Fermented Mumma was amazing at sharing her knowledge and self journey, passing down awareness for forest ecosystem protection and making yummy tacos! I was worried that by learning fundamental knowledge in an indoor venue, the class was going to be dry, but Jess kept me interested the whole time! I also had doubts about gaining skills and confidence to start mushroom hunting after just one lesson, but Jess totally made me want to go foraging this Saturday!

The venue was cozy and filled with community love. I loved that Helena's Sash was roaming around and greeting everyone. She was an awesome ice breaker for me as a first timer at the venue. Great location for public transport access too!

It was totally worth the price, and I strongly recommend mushroom foraging muggles begin take their first step with Class Bento.

Carolyn Heritage • May 2023

A really enjoyable and informative course and Helena explains everything very thoroughly. Would definitely recommend to others.

Teacher was funny, super friendly. Very helpful. I learnt so much and I can’t wait to go home and practise all these new tips. I highly recommend

Sonia Santangelo • May 2023

Helena gave us lots of tips. I do not have much strength in one hand due to nerve damage but her tips on posture were invaluable. I liked how Helena was super safety conscious. And she opened her class by asking us not to be unkind to ourselves if our project was not perfect. She was very encouraging and attentive.
She gave precise and clear instructions and was happy for us to interrupt her if we needed clarification or needed her to repeat an instruction.
It was alot of fun. I will definitely be coming back.
Thank you
Sonia Santangelo

Esther Parris • May 2023

Phoebe McCormack • May 2023

I had the most lovely time.
The space is perfect, bright and welcoming.
Caity had everything we could need. The best part of her teaching was that she gave us basic lessons and then we really were able to make whatever we wanted. Caity was around if you had any questions and was happy to provide tips or provide more guidance if you wanted/needed. I was a little nervous to go alone but I felt comfortable.
A perfect way to learn a new skill. Thank you Caity.

Caoimhe McGrady • May 2023

What a fun class! I went with my partner on a rainy Saturday and we had such a great time. Helena is a fantastic teacher, she made us feel so welcome and was so helpful throughout the class.

We learnt so much more than I expected! Great insight and safety into the tools we were using, types of wood, types of screws and nails, as well as helpful tips as to what to look out for if we were to buy materials/tools ourselves.

We made a plantar box and felt so proud after the class! It was a great introduction into woodwork and we will be on the lookout for further classes with workshop Melbourne.

Thanks again!

Caoimhe

Marisa Cesario • May 2023

Daisy was a wonderful teacher. A good balance of guidance, independent work & checking in.
The venue is a lovely, bright, comfortable, creative space.
The materials & take home items with instructions were great.
Really good value for money. I feel confident to continue practicing modern kintsugi repair with my take home kit.
I loved having a quiet space and time to learn, make mistakes, problem solve and practice with gentle & knowledgeable guidance.

Jacob Simkin • May 2023

Super enjoyable experience. I had been working flat out these days so it was good to take some time for myself to fix a plate I like and learn the art of kintsugi. My wife got it for me as a birthday present so it was good little surprise. Hopefully fix more in the future. Teacher was great and easy going

Great class, helpful teacher. Beautiful peices provided for the extra $30. Expensive class at $190 total but loved it.

Kerry Barker • May 2023

Absolutely loved the Modern Kintsugi class run by Daisy at Work-Shop Melbourne in Collingwood. No prior experience was needed which was great for someone like me who can feel a little daunted trying a new creative type skill. Daisy was a wonderful welcoming teacher who was skilled at making you feel at ease. The instructions were clear and she was available all throughout the class, roaming around and checking in on each participant to see if they needed assistance. All of the materials were provided in the course cost apart from the ceramic pieces to repair. My friend and I visited an op shop to get our 3 pieces and Daisy kindly broke them for us at the beginning of the class. The workshop was spacious and light and we had a nice time chatting to the people we met either side of us. I came away with 3 beautiful pieces and was able to get Daisy to break another 3 pieces for me to work on at home. Now that I have started to work with this skill, I will no longer throw out broken pieces at home. I can use them for my practice. What a beautiful craft. Thank you Daisy.

Yew Chow • May 2023

I enjoyed this workshop very much. Daisy's instructions were clear and her ongoing encouragement and technical support were great. All materials were provided in the cost of the workshop aside from the ceramics which could be purchased at additional cost. We just bought a few pieces from an op shop and had them expertly broken by Daisy when we arrived at the workshop. I had fun and came out with three kintsugi pieces.

Kerry Durrand • May 2023

Daisy’s class was amazing. She explained everything clearly. We had great fun repairing our pieces and have taken away the tools to do more kintsugi in the future. Highly recommend the class

Mandy McK • May 2023

Really excellent practical class learning how to properly use electric jigsaw, drill and hammer skills. Lovely teacher too who provided really clear instructions and support. Pace was good with mix of instruction and hands on, no break though as we were constantly busy learning and practicing for the full 3 hours. Nice to have something to show for the hard work at the end!

Susie Robertson • May 2023

Leah was great, she's an amazing teacher. The class was small, intimate and very informative. I love that she gave a step-by-step intro to baking sourdough, gave us a starter, take-home bread she made, and also gave us take-home notes so I didn't have to write anything down. Great class!

Iain Thomson • May 2023

I took this course with two friends and it was terrific - a great evening out and very informative! Was sent home with a batch of dough to bake and some starter to keep alive for next time along with detailed instructions on the process we covered. Highly recommended for anyone who's never made sourdough and wants to start from the basics!

Leike Koren • May 2023

Lovely space and Caity was excellent at showing the skills and techniques to lost wax jewellery making. Very chill and fun way to spend an evening!

Cathryn Burr • May 2023

Had a wonderful evening and learned so much.
It was great to come home with a delicious sourdough loaf plus dough for a second loaf and my own starter.

The studio was lovely and bright. I liked the multiple options the teacher provided, paint, boards etc.

The process was fun and felt like a warm atmosphere.

Brad Lawton • May 2023

Overall good experience, but since I didn’t know anything about welding maybe a explanation on how the helmet works and the adjustments on it also maybe some feedback on how my weld looked would have been good.

Lenka Chadaj • May 2023

2 ClassBento workshops attended

It was good to get some hands on experience but definitely felt like there was more education needed around the basics. David was really laid back and lovely, super chill attitude for a Sunday arvo class!
A few issues: he had just written up types of welding techniques and types of welding joins on a whiteboard and told us we could note them down if we wanted, but didn’t go through them at all, or explain the fundamentals in terms of what the differences between stick, MIG and TIG welding were, or what different joints were used for. Wasn’t an issue for my partner and I as we’d done some research ourselves beforehand, but a few others in the class were clearly frustrated and confused about what the basic outline of how to DIY.
When asked about things like what the difference between mild steel and stainless steel was and why one was gas less and one wasn’t, there wasn’t a lot of detail or understanding in his response, outside of ‘because science properties’ - it would be better to go through some of this knowledge before getting us out onto the practical in a structured manner, as well as properly explaining the safety components in one overview; like grounding, why you wear rubber sole boots, what the setup of the stick machine is with the correct inputs for running your grounding clamp, setting up a safe workspace with your mild steel conductor working plate etc.
Would be keen to do another class that went into more detail, and also possibly incorporated things such a metal cutting, shaping and forging elements so we weren’t limited to flat straight pieces of metal to play with.

Hannah Kennedy • May 2023

I organised a nipple tassel class for 24 ladies for a hen's party and it was just great. Perfect venue, perfect activity and the work-shop was the perfect venue. It was a huge highlight of our day/night and we loved it! Emma Grace and her team were also so lovely, helpful and patient.

Robert Nield • Apr 2023

Can't wait for the next Handy-women course.
Thank you Helena

I learnt how to make a planter box .
I learnt how to use a jigsaw. And learnt a few extra things about other tools I have used before. Was a great class.

Helena also spent a few minutes at the end giving some advice about a diy project I would like to do.

Thanks again Helena. Great Class

FANTASTIC This course was great from start to finish.
Helena is friendly, patient and full of knowledge. She shares so much purposeful information, in an easy to understand manner, and it all makes sense. The whole class were off working independently and using the tools in no time, after her well modelled demonstrations. I couldn't wait to get home and start using the tools that I have had for so long, but had no idea how to use. Love my planter box and can't wait for the next course. Excellent experience. :)

Joanne Tran • Apr 2023

Helena was a fantastic teacher - went at an appropriate pace and was encouraging. Grateful to know how to handle the tools in a safe manner. I had a lot of fun!

Liana was a fantastic teachers I learned a lot about the basics of watercolour through the class group activities and also asking Liana more specific questions. The venue was great, easy to find a park. Would def recommend as a fun weekend activity or for someone wanting to learn watercolour basics.

Ruana Jayasuriya • Apr 2023

Helena was super warm and friendly. Explained everything so clearly and pace was perfection for project. Such a great teacher!

Soomin Ji • Apr 2023

It was my first time building a plant pot using power tools.

Teacher Helena explained the process step by step and gave us the basic information about tools and the instruction how to use them safely.

After this class, I gain confidence that I can fix or build things at home on my own safely!

I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn woodworking.

*Thank you Helena, it was such an amazing experience.

Kirsten McLean • Apr 2023

What a great workshop! Covered so much in 3 hours and coming out with a completed project at the end was amazing. Helena is a patient and kind teacher, who explains everything clearly. Highly recommend this class!

Chris Day • Apr 2023

This course is high on practical work with a mig welder but low on theory.
After a breif round table of who & why we headed straight into the machines & started working.

Christopher Stewart • Apr 2023

Extreme value for money; can’t believe this is 4 hours long.
Ivan not only has a lifetime of experience with cars but he is also able to explain things in a way that someone like me (knows nothing) can understand.
A place where there are no stupid questions and I left there feeling confident about putting my hands into my own cars bonnet.
Bonus points for a great assistant who made a killer coffee!

Liam Fallon • Apr 2023

Gaston was a very engaging and charming teacher. It was really good to actually have that much time to get a lot of practice in under expert supervision. It is a lot harder than it looks so classes like this are absolutely priceless for anyone wanting to learn.

Great session taking a literal beginner and giving them all the tools needed to progress in this awesome craft. Gaston was great at making the information simple and digestible and he is a great teacher.

Valerie has excellent knowledge and expertise. Interaction and explanation s helpful. Enjoyed seeing cheese made and tastings. Venue difficult to find, especially when glitch in the system sent us to the wrong place.

Teacher was good, was giving of time, got around to all students to check on progress and offer support.

Sienna Cleland • Apr 2023

Gaston and Cal were both incredible teachers, very hands on learning experience suited to any level painter and really helpful advice and technique teaching! Really fun and enjoyable day

Kate Thompson • Apr 2023

Brilliant class! Helena was a fabulous teacher and gave great instructions with many insights from her personal experience perfecting the art of tufting. She kept a great pace that felt challenging yet achievable and fun. I was so pleased with the end result.

Eddy Sara • Apr 2023

Gaston was a clear communicator, gave great real world examples for problems we may encounter when performing the task and responded with great care and attention when questions were asked.
Cal was a very awesome and helpful sidekick!
I felt I had a good grasp of the basics of hand painted signage by the end of the workshop and am also now aware of what to practice and learn in order to take it to the next level.
Also finished up with my very own badass poster!
Thanks again guys 10/10

Joseph Alcorace • Apr 2023

Workshop was ok, had lots of time on the welder. Didn't feature much transfer of knowledge on beginners e.g. rate of weld, what is a good vs. bad weld with examples, or what to look out for when welding to avoid warping. Instructor seemed very knowlegable with 30+ years of welding experience however, spent majority of class sitting in the corner on their phone. Only piping up when someone was lost or had a question or the rod was stuck in their welding machine.

A worthwhile class to be on the tools but not worth $150. Was hoping to walk away more knowlegable on the in's and out's of welding and some tricks and tips from an instructor with 30+ years experience.

All my opinion and first take on the experience. If you want to try welding without buying one or joining TAFE, try it.

Helena was an amazing teacher and the class was such an enjoyable experience. I found the class easy to follow and we were able to get right into making the rug without too much fuss. Although the hobby is an expensive endeavour, it was a really fun experience getting to create a unique piece of work from the ground up and getting to complete all of it ourselves. Thank you Helena and Classbento for putting on this amazing workshop

This is a fantastic class and I highly recommend it. Everything you need is provided and the range of colours you can choose is great. Helena explained everything clearly and even gave us information on what we need to get/ look out for if we decide to set yourselves up to do it at home in the future. I went in thinking it would be harder than it was and it didn’t take long to feel comfortable doing it. It’s quite the workout though especially the first day. My arms and feet were very sore but it was more than worth it. Thanks Helena

What an awesome teacher! I have been to quite a lot of lost wax classes now (thus not having any photos of my finished silver rings) and this was definitely one of my favourites! A larger style class but the teacher was able to spend lots of time with anyone who needed it. Really fun and well organised, and a seemingly endless box of tricks that could help out with all kinds of crazy ideas.
Alone or with a group, definitely an excellent class.

Jacqueline Blanch • Apr 2023

I had a wonderful time using the lost wax technique to make rings. There was plenty of time to practice with a few extra rings on the way. It was a great opportunity to learn and practice the craft.
Thank you

A lovely relaxed class in a beautiful studio. Caity was a great teacher, made everything fun and didn’t over complicate things. And the studio dog is adorable!

Sara O'Keefe • Apr 2023

Teacher was awesome. I was on my ownso a bit anxiousbut she made me feel welcome and regularly checked in with how I was going.

Riley Holloway • Apr 2023

This class was excellent for beginners like myself and my partner. Our teacher Caity was extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and helped us design/produce rings that we can actually wear and be proud of. I would definitely recommend this class to others as it allows you to create what you’d like with nothing being the right nor wrong design which makes it a very laid back and enjoyable experience.

Kat was amazing as a teacher and patient with a fiddly guy like myself!
I was suprised by the amount of guys who also rocked up - definitely a gender diverse appealing workshop
The venue was great and very welcoming to get my creative juices flowing.
I love the variety of scents available to use and am definitely excited to try another one of these workshops!

Katala Jordan • Apr 2023

Friendly, insightful and welcoming - this class is perfect for beginners and friends to catch up and bitch. Everything is provided, you are shown and hides through their design and encouraged to go forth and conquer stitches of your own. High recommend, enjoyed my experience.

Dee Granados • Apr 2023

This was the first time I've done this and the class was so much fun. All the materials were provided and went home with a finished piece.

Alex was a great instructor. Easy to follow instructions and he made us feel in a comfortable and safe space, judgment-free. The group was fun to work with and seeing what everyone created was inspiring too.
Alex managed to look at the class as a whole but also spent time supporting individual projects. I never felt rushed to do anything and managed to complete my piece by the end of the day.

The venue was full of natural light which I found important. Make sure you bring some food as shops around the area are closed on Sunday.

I gained a great foundation to explore further sculpting with clay and I am looking to do this class in the future again.

James Carrick • Apr 2023

Great little welding course that taught me some basic techniques that I can develop upon at home. Looking to make some alteration to our camper trailer and this was just the kind of skill set I needed. Teacher was awesome, very knowledgeable, explained everything well with a great sense of humour. Will definitely recommend to others. Cheers

Rakhee Nair • Apr 2023

The venue is great, with coffee n tea and fruits. The ambience was good with a lot of materials provided for the course. Our teacher Alex was very detailed and patient in explaining us and make to give all of us individual attention.

Carmen Edwards • Apr 2023

Such a fun workshop!
Helena and the team make everyone feel so welcome and comfortable from the minute you arrive (thanks again for the coffee!)
The space is full of light, plants and inspiration and there’s more than sufficient work areas, equipment and materials provided.
We had a fantastic day learning various techniques from Alex and came away with a much better understanding of clay modelling. The instructions were well paced and full of interesting ideas and applications, handy tips and extra advice. We had a small friendly group that creatively challenged and encouraged each other as we all worked away on our projects. It was nice too to be able to leave with a sculpture at the end of the day.
Having attended other classes with Work-Shop previously, I would not hesitate to recommend. Can’t wait for the next one!

Daisy was great teach - Spent time with all in the class going tips and tricks after showing the class what To do.

I felt it was slight on the expensive side considering the class.
But overall was a great class and something I will continue to do at home.

The way the piece went together allowed for the inevitable wobbly, not quite straight cut which was appreciated.

I did the Handy-woman Workshop this morning and thoroughly enjoyed myself and leant so much. Helena was delightful and certainly knew what she was talking about. Her explanations and demonstrations were excellent and detailed. I was thrilled with the planter box I took home. The venue was fine, easy to find and instructions for parking very good. I would love to do another workshop and learn further skills.

Julie Nguyen • Mar 2023

I had a blast learning how to tuft with Helena! All tufting materials were provided, well organised and set up for both day 1 and day 2. Helena was friendly and fun to learn from as she shares so many hot tips for tufting! (I learned so much, ahhhhh) It was a definitely a work out using the tufting guns, but when you see the end product (a finished rug) *chef's kiss*. Already excited to get into tufting more in future! Thanks so much Helena :)

Deborah Marchant • Mar 2023

Interesting class using mixed media - able to interpret in our own way. So many different artworks were created from the basic techniques. Lovely teacher, very encouraging.

Deborah Busch • Mar 2023

This was a very enjoyable class, with an engaging teacher. Everything was beautifully prepared, the chance to practice techniques provided, and the take home resources to go it alone were great. I highly recommend if you are interested in learning how to make sourdough.

Leah's Sourdough Intro class was fun, interactive and really informative. I left feeling excited to bake my first loaf.

Great warehouse space and loads of fantastic imagery to work with including piles and piles of old picture books and magazines. Very supportive and encouraging teacher with a good potted history of collage over the last 120 years to start the session. I would do this again.

Anton Musiienko • Mar 2023

Great instructor, very lovely and down to earth, but also knowledgeable and helpful. We had a great time. And she even didn't mind we stay behind an extra 10 min to finish off. Very wholesome and meditative activity, but also very practical, easy to pick up, beautiful and creative, and fun.

Suzie Casale • Mar 2023

Barbara Ngai • Mar 2023

Teacher was good and very helpful. It would have been good to get information before the class, we were asked to bring an idea and given dimension of piece. Provision of yarn and cloth and gun provided , it would have been great to have spools for yarn as indicated in photos to stop tangling !
Enjoyable experience.

Michael Gratton • Mar 2023

Daisy was great, the location and atmosphere was great, the experience was great also. We learnt to fix some broken pieces and will hopefully now get a lot more use out of them.

Allison Spratt • Mar 2023

The teacher was very clear, thorough, encouraging and helpful to all.
The class was well structured and set up with good light and a relaxed feel.
Materials were set up effectively and questions were addressed promptly.

I enjoyed it much more than I thought. It was quite an intricate creative activity. Practical and adding a unique beauty to an often, well-loved piece of porcelain/pottery.

A great general workshop that covered the basics of car maintenance. It stressed the importance of preventive maintenance and explained why. I took away some great 'rules of thumb' and practical tips. Ivan was a fantastic teacher who was engaging and inclusive of the whole group. I now know what a good mechanic should be doing. I would not hesitate to recommend this workshop to others.

Wow! So much fun! Just an absolute joy! The teacher was informative and very precise, but had a way about her that just made everything easy and simple… I must have asked for help a dozen times or more and all the other students would organise materials for each other, ask the question again if the teacher didn’t hear it, I never felt embarrassed or singled out at all. It was a real community vibe in a professional class. I haven’t fully finished my journal as I haven’t decided on my edge design, but you can see clearly from the photo this is THE workshop for soft leather (or synthetic) journal making!

Christina Macdonald • Mar 2023

A wonderful evening learning the art of leather making. We were given clear, well communicated instructions and feedback in a fun environment. We learned the step by step process of journal binding before creating our own special leather journal. 5/5 Recommend.

Great experience, really fun. My only gripe is that it was seriously expensive with not much return. I wouldn't recommend this experience to others, simply because the price is so high - and shouldn't be. For $180 a person, consider including lunch, or afternoon drinks. Otherwise, consider lowering the price to $120-$150 maximum.

Matisse Rooke • Feb 2023

Fantastic course! Helena was extremely helpful and informative… the best part was I got to take home a rug I was proud of. Left feeling very inspired!

Alexander Voinovich • Feb 2023

The class was very unstructured, and pretty unsupervised, there was a few minutes of introduction at the start, followed by a demonstration of the absolute basics by the instructor - this was quite difficult for everyone to see clearly, perhaps there could some more thought put into this stage, and then it was essentially just pair up, and start having a play on the machines.

For some, I could see this being beneficial, but personally, I prefer a bit more structure, and explanation of the process before getting hands on with something.

Additionally, the instructor didn’t check in with everyone regularly, and it was sometimes a struggle to get his attention.

Given there was a whole bunch of information written on a whiteboard, I was expecting us to go through what that information was, like an explanation of different joint types, the differences between Stick, TIG and MIG, and perhaps even an explanation of HOW the machines actually work, safety tips, hazards associated with welding, etc, but that information on the board was seemingly there only for show, as it was not even covered.

This class would probably suit someone who already had an interest in welding, and has perhaps watched a few YouTube videos on the subject, and they just want to jump on a machine and try their hand at running some beads before investing in a machine themselves.

Personally, I have gained a lot more theoretical knowledge from watching some good, longer form videos on YouTube, than I did from this course, but again, this course will suit some people more than others.

Anna Hedstrom • Feb 2023

Really nice, relaxed environment and Alex had a very clear instruction style that helped to achieve more than I thought possible. Definitley recommend this class.

Cherie Ross • Feb 2023

A really enjoyable day with Alex. The pace was relaxing and the outcome surprisingly good! Alex’s gentle guidance had me create something I didn’t expect I would achieve in a beginners class. I now have the fundamentals to build on and as Alex said many times over … start with a sphere! And he was right (of course) it was so much easier to start every piece of the puzzle with a sphere and build something I was happy with.

Perhaps an aircon as well but all up was good!

Suzanne Alexander • Feb 2023

Teacher was great, venue was clean and easily accessible. The class was exactly as advertised. I’m very happy

Pam Yarra • Feb 2023

Daisy was very informative with details of the process. However with a large class of 18 new students , she seemed stretched to attend to all students. Given that Kintsugi is an ancient Japanese philosophy, surprisingly , there was no reference made to it.

Great workshop, Helena was an excellent teacher - organised, encouraging and pitching her instruction well. We learnt about tools and techniques in a way that will be so useful going forward. And we made a great planter box in the process. And had FUN! Thanks Helena

Helena was a fantastic teacher. The class was very enjoyable. I hope you do the class level up next time. Thank you!

Lauren McKinnon • Feb 2023

Loved this workshop with Caity. She did a demonstration in the beginning and then circled the room answering questions and telling people how to execute their visions. The 3 hours is plenty of time to practice the different techniques and then refine them into your final ring(s). Can’t wait to see my finished rings!

Sally Warmington • Feb 2023

Caity was friendly, approachable and explained clearly how to make a ring. She moved around the room offering advice and help as needed throughout the evening. There was a positive atmosphere in the studio which was spacious and had good toilet facilities, it was a bit hot but not too bad. I enjoyed the process and had a fun evening with my daughter who gave me the ClassBento voucher as a birthday gift. Overall it was a great experience!

Maxim Lioudvigov • Feb 2023

super fun class, had free reign over our rings and was a super nice atmosphere, highly reccommend!

Keirra Duffy • Feb 2023

Really friendly teacher. Super fun and relaxed class. Highly recommended. Can’t wait to see the finished product

Great introduction to native bee understanding by knowledgeable instructor - highly recommend anyone even slightly interested in learning more about Australian native bees

Cathy • Feb 2023

A really fun and enjoyable class - highly recommend it! There was a great selection of different coloured paints and posca pens to use to paint your maneki neko. Carlo was very friendly, walking around the class and checking in if anyone needed help.

Kathryn Wyatt • Feb 2023

loved it. Great teacher. Daisy was great at answering my questions. I would have liked more time say 3 hours to finish more then one repair.

Cynthia • Feb 2023

Daisy explained the kinsugi process very clearly. She helped us individually which is an amazing feat considering there were around 18 or so students. I like how we were able to keep our kinsugi kit so we can do more ceramic repairs at home.

Edward Bwyorth • Feb 2023

Very friendly and helpful, had a hands on approach which helped if people were struggling or stuck.

Mary Williams • Feb 2023

Georgia Tombs • Feb 2023

I had the absolute best time in this class!
Helena (and her furry assistant Sash) was a fantastic teacher who explained and demonstrated every step of the process in detail and made it very easy to understand.
Her passion for tufting was very contagious and makes me look forward to starting my next project!
10/10 would recommend!

Kylie Rosan • Feb 2023

What a wonderful workshop! Daisy was a fabulous teacher, giving us lots of tips and tricks across the 3 hour period to make three things of our own choosing to be glazed and fired. Our imagination was the only limit. I had so much fun and am looking forward to receiving my beautiful ceramics in a few weeks!

Allister Cutbush • Feb 2023

Teacher was friendly clear and helpful. Class was a good size and the class was well set up and equiped. Nice relaxed atmosphere.

Helen Pham • Feb 2023

The class was extremely fun! My friend and I were laughing throughout the night and overall it was a good bonding experience for us.
It was definitely a challenge to come up with ideas/designs for the cat, however our teacher Carla was helpful and supportive and guided us through it all.
Time really flew and I was having so much fun that I wish I had more time to continue painting my cat!

Think it would be better as a 3 hour class - it wouldn't feel so rushed.
Quite expensive.

Lianna is a great teacher, encouraging you to unleash your creativity while she shares tricks of the trade in a well paced and fun environment, all materials were provided. We got to do practice runs with the block ink which gave us several chances to edit our stamp, adding more detail, tweaking bits here and there.
10/10 I've had my eye on this class for months and it was so enjoyable to attend!

Eileen Morley • Feb 2023

I’m a complete beginner and Tom was really patient with me. He managed the different range of experiences/ability in the class really well and it was a great experience.

Well paced, knowledgeable and empathic teacher, the process was easy to follow and catered for all learning styles

George Lebesis • Jan 2023

Teacher was knowledgeable and provided plenty of advice and allowed plenty of hands on time to apply what we learned.

At the end of the day this course provided me the necessary information to see if welding is something I would like to do before I went out and spend money buying equipment.

The sculpting clay class was great! The instructor was knowledgeable and provided clear instructions. The studio was well-equipped and the atmosphere was relaxed. The class was well-structured and provided individual work and critique, improving our skills and giving us feedback. I recommend this class for those interested in hands on sculpting.

Brendan Sherry • Jan 2023

Really good course. The breathwork is really interesting and helped me reduce stress.
The last week I have never slept better!

Michelle gave very comprehensive instruction and staged that well with the different stages of the paper making process. She was very friendly and was quick to put us at at ease.
The equipment was all there and a really good handout was provided at the end of the workshop. A very informal setting very suited for messy activity.
Great value and the glass of Prosecco was a nice touch.

Jason Buick • Jan 2023

Teacher was top. Parted his knowledge at beginning and then allowed the class to work on their own but still had input if needed.
Great teacher, good value for money.
Cheers

Carl Marning • Jan 2023

David was very good and relaxed with a wide range of experience.
I learnt allot and enjoyed the opportunity to learn a bit about welding.
Worth doing again

Rob Maxwell • Jan 2023

Our teacher Dave has decades of experience and clearly knows everything there is to know about welding.
It really shows how little you can really learn from YouTube etc, you have to get on the tools with someone who can guide you. Would highly recommend!

Marc Funaro • Jan 2023

Really great class. My final product turned out much better than expected. Kat was a fantastic instructor. The class learned so much about layering scents and creating a perfume in a short amount of time. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone interested in the world of fragrance.

Jeannie Paterson • Jan 2023

I booked this class for my two children - recent P plate drivers - to learn more about basic car maintenance. This is important as they are often driving long distances on country roads and need to know how their cars work as well as simple emergency techniques. They thought the class was excellent - definitely five stars. They really liked the enthusiasm and expertise of the instructor, and felt they learnt solid, practical, useful skills.

Roci Kraljevski • Jan 2023

The session was informative, and easy to follow for people at any level. Great value for money. Instructor was knowledgeable and personable. Overall, I recommend this to anyone looking at these types of therapies

Simon Hibbs • Jan 2023

Would definitely sign up for a more advanced version to keep learning if it became available

Arabella explained techniques well. It was easy to follow the steps to paint a scull. Really enjoyed the class.

Michael Venn • Jan 2023

If you’re wanting to try a new medium or are new to painting in general I would highly recommend this class. The instructor (Arabella) is very pleasant, both professional and casual.

Lucy Gale • Jan 2023

Loved the teacher and was a great experience. Would maybe prefer a step by step approach as a class rather than being given all the information at the start.

Zoe O'Mahoney • Jan 2023

Emilie was a passionate and a great teacher. The class was perfect to get you interested in drawing and show you some tricks

Jaala Webster • Jan 2023

This class was really informative, but also really enjoyable. The teacher was awesome- set everyone at ease straight away and then did a great job of explaining quite hard to explain ideas. I could tell everyone in the class loved it and had a really beautiful evening.

Callie Harvey • Jan 2023

The teacher was great. I think that it will be useful to have a longer time to complete one piece and receive advice from the teacher.

Alessia Capriccioli • Jan 2023

It was a great experience, we had fun and learned the basics about watercolor. It’s a good start for beginners. All material was provided and some wine as well

Wendy Lewis • Jan 2023

Great beginner's class. Pitched at the right level for all participants. Emilie was fantastic.

Tanya King • Jan 2023

I enjoyed this class so much! It was very dynamic with a lot of exercises. Emilie was an enthusiastic teacher with lots of encouragement and positive tips. I would recommend this class for beginners looking for inspiration to draw

Dani Robertson • Jan 2023

Emilie is so warm and passionate about drawing and making it accessible to all. This class was judgement free and great encouragement to enjoy the artform rather than the output.
My only suggestion would be to include an acknowledgement of country at the beginning given the class is being held on land that was never ceded and the long history our first nations people have of visual storytelling.

Bethany McConachy • Jan 2023

Natalie is a profoundly talented teacher. Her ability to guide a group of students to connect with the material is completely flawless. She brings the best out of each participant and allows them to find the answers for themselves.

Practice at doing the welding was the most enjoyable part of the whole workshop. The trainer provided us with the right information to get going.

Amanda Cunningham • Jan 2023

The workshop was good, especially if you like the teacher to be pretty hands off and let you do your own thing. I havent got the finished ring back yet but the class felt super reasonablety priced (we made two extra ring during class for only an extra $40-something).

Ann Sala • Jan 2023

Teacher was fantastic. Only one suggestion, which would be to provide a few example designs if people wanted to use them. This is what I imagined would happen. Especially if they were of a Japanese theme, would be helpful for those less confident at drawing.

Rebekah Lin • Jan 2023

Awesome class! Super knowledgeable and awesome class led by the amazing Caity. Was super cool to meet other interesting people and learn a new skill that results in a sick silver ring! Would definitely recommend to anyone whether you want to go with a friend/partner or on your own.

A really enjoyable morning spent. The teacher was knowledgeable and encouraging. I enjoyed the variety of techniques learned and the direction, as well as the time to explore. Lovely location and welcoming energy to the space.

Viet-My Bui • Jan 2023

I loved this class! Helena is an excellent instructor: she is warm, funny, thorough, patient and supportive. She placed a lot of emphasis on safety and technique, which I appreciated. I had a lot of fun and even though I was intimidated at first, I came away feeling empowered and proud of my efforts. I can already see how these skills will be transferable with doing odd jobs around the house, or tackling DIY projects. The workshop is reasonably easy to find via public transport, and we were provided with a comfortable space and all necessary equipment. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to learn how to become handier/self-sufficient and is a bit apprehensive about doing so on their own!

Just completed this course in Collingwood. The teacher, Helena, was fantastic. She explained the materials and tools and took us through the building a planter step by step. One on one assistance was always available if it was needed, and everyone came away with a functional piece that may not have been perfect but was great for a first try at carpentry. I would recommend this course for anyone with no previous experience. The venue is also great; plenty of light and space and includes Helena’s friendly dog

Vicki James • Dec 2022

Loved this. Daisy is a fantastic teacher, full of practical knowledge, helpful hints and right there to guide you through the process. I took my own broken pieces but you can break something you’ve brought with you or purchase Daisy’s pieces to walk away with something truly wonderful.

Pavla Jones • Dec 2022

Teacher very knowledgeable, but class too large for individual attention. felt the cost

Svetlana Volochina • Dec 2022

The teacher was friendly and patient, however inappropriately dressed as a teacher. She was wearing very short blouse with fully exposed tummy and back also very tight jeans. I felt uncomfortable .
Another thing , when the front of the rug was completed and we had to do backing, teacher offered for everyone only black, unhemmed material, which looked very messy. For my blu and white rug this backing material was unsuitable and teacher had nothing white. I unfinished my work and planning to finish it at home using my own white backing. I hope that my review will be helpful for other students and the teacher.

Teacher's response

Hi Svetlana,

Thank you for the feedback. While we appreciate your ideas & suggestions about how to make rugs, we teach a specific method which we've found works best, and have taught this method to over 100 students.

Unfortunately it is very difficult to find the appropriate rug backing fabric in white. Light coloured backing fabric stains easily, discolours and does not hold up well over time for floor rugs. Finishing the raw edges was covered in the following steps using twill tape and hemming the initial fabric is unnecessary when this is completed. This method is widely used among professional tufters.

As for the facilitator's dress code, we have reviewed your complaint and come to the decision that we kindly disagree with your stance. Work-Shop does not support policing the way our teachers, or anybody chooses to dress.

Warm regards,
Work-Shop Team

Natasha Brisbane • Dec 2022

We had a great time creating today with our wonderful teacher, Daisy. I would not consider myself artistic and didn’t know the first thing about ceramics but felt that this was a great introduction. It was also a great class for those with more experience as Daisy is very experienced and was able to support everyone with bringing their ideas to life. Thank you!

Hatem Ahmed • Dec 2022

The teacher Eric was very knowledgeable and helpful and the workshop was well prepared with everything we need. Also, we gained lots of information and hands-on experience which makes the fee for that workshop a good value for money.

Blake Henderson • Dec 2022

Loved it. Great date night.

I now have 2 wedding rings to choose from - stoked.

Damon Weetman • Dec 2022

This is an ace way to spend three hours. I'd highly recommend it to anyone keen to try out wax carving. Caity was an excellent teacher, with plenty of personalised tips for ambitious beginners like myself. The studio is clean, comfortable and well lit, and the tools provided were in good shape. I'm keen to come back and try a class in something else. Looking forward to receiving my very own ring, once it has been cast. Thanks again!

Elyse Morahan • Dec 2022

The mushroom growing workshop took us through the stages of creating a substrate and starting a farm for fruiting.
The teacher provided us with an easy to follow guide for home, provided us with heaps of resources, and kept it fun! I walked away with a farm ready for fruiting, a jar ready to make mycelium, knowledge, and confidence to tackle this alone.
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and spores Eric!

Ann Yeung • Dec 2022

Lots of fun and learnt how to make a wax cast to create a silver ring. Caity was great demonstrating how to use the tools and also providing guidance during the workshop. The information in the sheets are great and the materials and tools were all laid out for each person before the workshop began. Looking forward to collecting my silver ring when it has been cast.

Emily Luhrs • Dec 2022

My husband and I really enjoyed the experience and found it a fun and creative exercise. When we asked about the best way to care for our new terrariums, our instructor said that they had no idea as they often killed their own. This was a bit disappointing as we would've expected our instructor to provide maintenance tips and care insight.

Janelle Hamlyn • Dec 2022

An easy workshop clearly explained and demonstrated by Sheri to a good sized group . Access to quality materials was generous . I think to improve value for money , 2 rather than 1 candle made , would be better . The wax melt were a lovely addition . I would recommend the workshop.

I was a little bit scared of using a drill and jigsaw before, but everything is changed after this course and it's so fun. Thanks so much to Hellen! The photo is the planter box that I made.

Tom Wood • Dec 2022

Lovely hot day for standing over a welding arc!

Loved this class. Helena was very knowledagble and clearly explained and showed us every step needed to make the planter box. The tools were easy to use and we were given ample time to complete the project.

Tori Langens • Dec 2022

We attended a live drawing class for my sisters’ henparty. Our class was taken by Hini and Aaron was the model. I highly recommend this class, many giggles were had and the hen even discovered a new talent for drawing she didn’t know she had!
Hini really made the class, she was funny and warm and enjoyed a laugh.

Thanks again, this class really got our hen party off to the best start.

I have just spent a very enjoyable afternoon making a festive wreath with our teacher Helena. Everything we needed was supplied, & with her enthusiastic guidance we created our beautiful wreaths. This was a birthday gift from my family.

The instructor was lovely and very helpful, very nice space to get together with friends and have a wine

Gideon Wyeth • Dec 2022

Great class, we covered the basics which is what I was hoping for.
I’ve never welded before, but I now have the confidence to buy a machine and know that I can safely start practicing and improving my skills.

Kate Porter • Dec 2022

With the expert guidance of Helena, I feel more confident in using power tools, although I will definitely need to practice to make perfect! Helena's instructions were clear, and she gave useful tips on how to make things easier with "a woman's body".
The location was great and the presence of the resident dog was a bonus!

Libby Stapleton • Dec 2022

Great teaching, we had an awesome time, made some really cool art and learnt a lot. Thanks so much

Leon Beauchamp • Dec 2022

What a fantastic team building event - I would highly recommend this to others! Our teacher Stephanie was excellent and highly experienced. The Work Shop venue in Newstead was perfect and the coffee shop out front a bonus :-). The team made some great pottery and had so much fun and laughs in the process. This is good value as a team building event and the benefits of spending time together doing something totally different. Many thanks to Stephanie, Ellie and the ClassBento Team!

Danuta Bulhak-Paterson • Dec 2022

Thank you so much Liana for your awesome class!

Kylie Smith • Nov 2022

This course was a great creative and relaxed way to spend the afternoon.
Jo was a great teacher and keen to share her knowledge and ideas. She is really warm and supportive of your creative ideas whilst also offering other possibilities. There were many life lessons to take from this class too! (It's amazing how cathartic hammering flowers can be)
You learn the basics of dyeing with flowers and botanicals and learn a couple of different techniques. You have to wait 3 days to unwrap the silk scarf you make and get to use your new knowledge on an item you bring with you.
This course was so enjoyable, informative and nice to be doing a very different yet easily replicated, creative activity.

Had an absolute blast. It was a relaxed vibe where everyone just got in the creative zone. The venue was light and bright with great facilities and space. Loved the workshop itself. All the tools and know-how was provided. A little community was created for the 3 hours. Fun! Looking at what I can do next

Milton Maganas • Nov 2022

Easy going environment no pressure.
Teacher on the day had shown us the welding machine and how it works and how to weld.
Best part is that your hands on using a welding machine and do your own welding.

Alberto Capponi • Nov 2022

We had such a good time!

Darryl have such a good vibe! he made us feel so comfortable and welcome, but yet safe and fun! Can tell he has years and years of experience welding, coz from the most stupid question to the most complicated scientific one he knew the answer and was able to explain it so easily!

The venue itself is gorgeous, even tho, the workshop was outside, for obviously reasons

I'm finally comfortable in welding and I only need practicing to be able to reach my goal and be able to start fabricating some things that I've been planning for years!

Highly recommended to anyone that want to start welding and has no idea where to start!

Simon Armstrong-Bunker • Nov 2022

Quite unstructured- which suited our group of 5 men, but in my experience women often benefit from more structure.
I'd advise a short list of key topics and some prep on each
eg
Safety/WHS
Basic concept of process
Best Practice

There was loads of hands on which is always good!

Graham Chandler • Nov 2022

This was a very interesting and informative workshop and a great introduction to native bee keeping and native bees generally. Well worth attending by anyone with a interest in keeping native bees.
The workshop was well presented and covered quite a bit of ground, but delivered by Ian in an enthusiastic and easily digestible manner and pace. The practical demonstration of hive splitting was fascinating and provided a measure of confidence that it was a task that could be undertaken by a careful DIY/hobby bee keeper.
A thoroughly recommended "must do".

Michelle Ray • Nov 2022

Loved this class. The tutor, Alexander, was delightful, patient, encouraging and kind. All materials were provided. Small group size meant individual attention from tutor. Perfect course to learn basics to sculpture at home.

Nina Demoulin • Nov 2022

2 ClassBento workshops attended • 2 reviews

Venue had a fun creative energy. Carla was great, but sometimes it was hard to get the attention of herself and the other teachers assisting. Instead of addressing the whole room, she would come to the separate tables which was nice, but also felt like it separated the groups a bit so there wasn't much interaction between the guests attending the workshop unlike some of other workshops I've been to.

The fumes from the sealing spray at the end was very strong and got stuck in the room so might be something to consider for future workshops. Overall, the cats turned out great and an enjoyable activity to do with a group of friends.

David Donaldson • Nov 2022

Teacher was great. Loads of good info across a wide range. Great to see a hive split. Thanks

Nicola Balch • Nov 2022

Great workshop. Felt like we had a lot of time to practice which was awesome. Teacher was lovely and very patient.

Paul Paterson • Nov 2022

Teacher was great however facilities were primitive to say the least. I may have missed it in the course advert but two people to share a welder!
bench height way below a safe working level, should be 900-1000mm

Sally Chapman • Nov 2022

It was fantastic to walk out with a printed lino cut. The class was super practical, individual attention, just the right place and duration.

Alison Hunter • Nov 2022

Booked a tufting/make a custom rug workshop via ClassBento & will definitely be back for another. Easy to use portal & good communication. The actual class with Helena (at The Work-Shop Melb) was fabulous. Patient, comprehensive and clear instruction, plus received a follow up pdf packed with info, tips & links; bright, funky, clean workspace, small class size, great vibe & cruisey music; ALL materials provided; excellent value for money! Learnt (& got to do hands-on) the complete process, including the backing. Very happy to recommend. (my tip - Parking on Saturday was busy due to basketball stadium nearby, so allow time for circling the block. Also, the pub does take-away lunch!)

The class was easy and lots of fun, with even the uncreative (me!) happily loosing themselves in this new world of mosaic'ing.

I'm not a craft person, I don't even like mosaic stuff, I just came along to explore, and found it really rewarding.

Thanks to Alyson, I have a newfound appreciation of mosaics!

Everything was set up and ready to go. Teacher was so lovely and enjoyed nerding out on the history of terrariums which was cool. He was so free with sharing his knowledge and happy to supply as many succulents as we needed for decorating. We took my parents and they just had the best time. 10/10 recommend it.

Tina • Nov 2022

I really enjoyed Dianne's class. It's so clear she has incredible expertise in the subject matter. I had a lot of fun with the mixing. Her encouragement is authentic but she also gives great advice as you go. My only thing is, I wish there was ambient music to fill the space. Doesn't need to be radio - just some light jazz. Also, it would be great to have more time on the final canvas. Overall, loved it. I'll book again with Dianne at workshop.

Chet was an amazing teacher, he was very knowledgeable and attentive. The venue was absolutely gorgeous, from the aesthetics, the location; to the layout of the workshop - it was beautiful. The materials provided were all high-quality, and very fun to work with. What I liked most about the workshop, was how much you could play around with the terrarium - personalising and creating a unique project that reflects your creativity.

Thanks for the amazing experience! Will definitely recommend this to my friends and family :)

Genevieve Kaiser • Nov 2022

This class was the best, I had such a great time!

Gaston was an amazing teacher as well as just being super talented and knowledgable. Can’t recommend this class enough!

James Laham • Nov 2022

The teacher Darryl was excellent and direct. As long as you are paying attention and following his instructions, then you will be fine. As expected too, because you gotta be careful when dealing with a job this dangerous.
The venue was average, nothing spectacular but enough space to move around with the amount of people that attend a class at any one time.
The safety equipment provided were perfectly safe and in a great condition, the materials provided to practice on were also perfectly fine, though the first materials handed out could probably do with a bit of a clean up, as there weren't too many scrap pieces that had enough un-welded or bare faces on them for us to really see our first welds properly.
All in all I think it's a great course for anyone who wants to learn the absolute basics like I did today. Darryl will go through safety of course, then the 3 types of welders that are most common, then it's hands on.
I enjoyed the practical of course, that was always going to be the most exciting bit.
Highly recommend it for anyone wanting to learn basics of welding, it isn't easy but it's a good skill to have I think. Thanks.

Helena was great! Every step was broken down to manageable chunks and really great tips that will come in handy with future projects. I feel so much more confident with the tools now!

Just finished the class and I’m chuffed to bits. Helena our teacher was excellent - professional, safe, encouraging and fun.
Facilities were good and easy to find and the tips about timing for arrival time and parking really useful.
It’s my intention to find out what other courses Helena offers because I felt very comfortable in the space and with her as the instructor.
I’m basically a complete novice to this type of activity.

James McGlone • Nov 2022

Good teacher ,awful hand tools,they need replaced, couldn't find a pair of snips or pliers capable of cutting.valuable time wasted looking for suitable alternative

Helena was a fantastic teacher. She made everything really easy to understand and was patient and encouraging.
I really liked the workshop and can’t wait for the follow on one she mentioned would be available soon.
I’ve come away from the workshop feeling confident, empowered and excited to creat more using the skills I learned to work with tools.

Awesome intro to woodworking and use of basic tools. Great teacher, clear instructions, well-paced. Looking forward to the follow up!

Deborah • Nov 2022

Helena was excellent gave us lots of tips and useful information to use for future projects Highly recommend the class

Hal Witney • Nov 2022

Was a PowerPoint presentation of the chakras and a lot of talking about ‘how great tantric sex is’ but with zero real knowledge and understanding of the practice. When asking what breathing techniques i could start with, she just said ‘just breathing, there’s so many’ and this in various other ways to other people in the class asking for actual advice.
She didn’t really know what she was talking about and not worth the $120 I spent on the two tickets

Alinta Koh • Nov 2022

Great to learn how to do printmaking at home without needing a lot of equipment!

Michelle Tan • Oct 2022

Ivan presented very well and was very patient with answering any questions.
The venue was easy to find and very spacious. Since the course was 4 hours duration, I was very thankful for the coffee and cookies provided for mid break.
Highly recommend this course to anyone as I greatly enjoyed learning the names of the main vehicle parts and the safe way to change tyres.
The only small thing was the Course Overview said 'a car will be brought in for a full demo and you'll get your hands dirty poking around its insides' but we didn't seem to have the opportunity to do it on the day.

Rosy Moore • Oct 2022

A great experience, teacher was helpful and attentive and kept the class on track to try many different exercises. A lot of fun too, and great to do if you're an absolute beginner

Carla Walker • Oct 2022

Dianne was a very good teacher. We had many examples to try. She showed us how to extend the examples and create new images.
It was a good space for the workshop and was a very enjoyable class.

I want to be really careful how I review this. I loved the product. Everything needed was supplied. The class was a little too large for my liking and the instructor seemed more interested in her dogs than providing assitance.

Great teacher setting up a relaxed and open environment to try our hand. Lots of fast moving exercises to practice skills without being self consious. Really enjoyed this session and great value for mone.

Ria Avent • Oct 2022

Teacher was really good.
There was a lot to fit in so maybe class could have been just 20 mins longer

I learnt some great concepts and ideas to sketch so very happy. Would love to have a follow up

Tamara Barclay • Oct 2022

Absolutely the best short course I’ve ever done! Ivan was engaging, passionate and no question felt stupid. I loved learning about how my car functions and the basic vitals to look out for under the bonnet. So much great take away information that will stay with me forever. Five stars are not enough! I give 10!

Nic Shilo • Oct 2022

Emily is such a wonderful, supportive teacher. I went in with no experience or skills and walked out of the class feeling like I could get started on basic block printing at home. You don't need to know how to draw! Plus, I had a print to take home that I was so happy with that I framed it when I got home. I highly recommend this class to anyone wanting to get started with block printing.

Selea Griffiths • Oct 2022

He has put together a very informative and brief class.

Excellent class. Learnt a lot in 3 hours! Some theory and some practical so overall very happy.

Katharine Blake • Oct 2022

Great overview/start to MIG gasless welding from a master craftsman. Good fun too. If you’re debating whether or not to do it, go for it. Highly recommend.

Mathew Chwah • Oct 2022

Good Course - Highly reccommend for someone with no welding experience, teacher was also great and answered many questions!

Jason Saarinen • Oct 2022

Darryl was an excellent teacher. He has loads of experience and really did well to show the basic fundamentals of welding in only 3 hours.

I got a lot more out of this course than expected. Im a tradesperson but it is suitable for anyone from any background who can listen to his wisdom and have a can do attitude.

Feeling confident to set up a gasless mig welder, and have a crack at joining some bits of steel together, or better yet, doing some repair work!

Ingrid Shenley • Oct 2022

It was a good intro to the world of metal work and some techniques that make plain metals look interesting for homemade jewellery. I really liked using small tools and sculpting something simple.

Christine Nguyen • Oct 2022

What was the teacher like? Knowledgeable, passionate about the subject, patient enough to answer any and all questions even after the 2 hour mark. I learnt quite a lot.

How was the venue (if applicable)? A little cold and uncomfortable for such an in-depth class. For such an intimate topic, I imagined we'd be sitting on the floor in a circular arrangement and on cushions in a warm environment so we'd feel more comfortable volunteering information or answering questions.

Was the experience good value for money? Was hoping there would be more interaction with each other, not just information on a slideshow.

Michelle Sawyer • Oct 2022

Charlotte was very professional and a good speaker.
It was a shame that we didn't have a chance to do some more practical exercises (eye gazing, breathing, feathers etc).
All the theoretical chakra stuff was a bit much for me and put me off a bit. A little less on that would be good.

Great class to introduce yourself to pottery. Instructor was really good at explaining and helping you with shaping/ideas when needed! Fun to do with friends

Karishma Suresh • Oct 2022

The class was a great intro to the concepts and the theory. Charlotte was an engaging teacher and took out time to answer question and make sure everyone was listened to. The space was cozy and easy to access. My partner and I left with a better understanding and eager to learn more. Thanks Charlotte.

Wendy (Dee) • Oct 2022

Charlotte introduced the topic in a very accessible way, tailoring to individual experience and knowledge in the group. Looking forward to more courses offered. Great venue.

I’ll likely be booking in to make a pet pendant soon too! Thanks so much one and all!
Charlotte & Lorilee

Cameron Davis • Oct 2022

The person running the class was fantastic and full of character,

only disappoint was that the plants used do not reflect the picture that is used to advertise this class.

We received only 2 plants that looked nothing like succulents.

It was an interesting and informative presentation. A passionate conservationist. Venue adequate and well located but absolutely no parking on street particularly due to ongoing street works at present.
Went home with a small useful bee hotel for our garden.
It is very much a sitting and watching session with little or no chance to really socialise. Was several opportunities to see and touch nests and it could be the start of a whole new hobby.

Learning to use power tools in a group environment had me a tiny bit anxious but Helena mad ja real fun and encouraging environment. This class was empowering, informative and engaging and I would recommend it to anybody who is curious but nervous to do a home build. I left the class feeling bad ass and a real cute planter box.

Kerrie McInnes • Oct 2022

The workshop was (exhausting) but so much fun. My Mum and I had the best two days creating our rugs, it's something that we've wanted to try for ages. Helena was a fabulous teacher and very generous with her knowledge. She was so patient and very helpful I would highly recommend booking in for one of her upcoming workshops. We're are officially addicted to rug tufting

Cheryl & I both enjoyed the session very much.

My focus has historically been overwhelmingly focused on my physicality, orgasm orientated mine & my partners.

I have struggled with my mental state (PTSD) & struggled with being present.

I have been unable to move past or have been unaware of some of my pre determined assumptions / expectations.

I have in the past had some experience with sexual tantric practise (early 20's) but had not brought them into my current 40 year long marriage.

This & a previous workshop hss allowed Cheryl & I to communicate more freely openly & make this communication a priority as we continue to make our relationship a priority. Above & beyond everything else in our lives other than caring for ourselves as individuals.

Individuals who each have sexual needs not just desires. Needs that we have a right to fullfill without shame or limitations as long as by doing so we do not bring harm to others. Sexual needs that we choose to explore develop and fullfill together & alone. A need that when fullfilled will benefit every aspect of our lifes our relationship and relationships with those close to both of us.

Thankyou for the guidance, encouragement and support.

Shane Durance

Debbie Solms • Sep 2022

Harish Shrestha • Sep 2022

The mushroom growing class is awesome, the team provide everything needed.teacher is very helpful and fun to attend the class.this could be once in a lifetime experience as a hobby or to grow this skill as the commercial way.
I found this fully worth the value for money as we can take freshly made mushroom growing bucket and culture and booklet.

She explained everything well and in terms we could all understand.
I would have liked to take more time on the work but it was also tiring doing 3 hours after a full day work so it was probably the right amount in the end.
We’ll worth the $!

This class was was great! Very informative session and Elisa was very attentive and encouraging.

Shane Durance • Sep 2022

2 ClassBento workshops attended • 2 reviews

For me & I think my partner, Elisa's 1st point was the cornerstone issue. Learn to talk openly about a topic with those important to you, about a subject silenced by shame, misinfomation, lies & social predjices & norms, that are not only not helpfull, but harmfull.

It is opening the conversation that this session helped facilitate. This gives us, as a couple, the opportunity to learn in more detail & experience all the benefits of the other aspects touched on by Elisa.

My wife & I are coming out of a 10 year period of total abstinance. For too many reasons not relevent to this review.

This open and frank discussion along with some practical hints & homework. I anticipate, offer a kick start to us unlearning, relearning, experimenting and growing in ways together, that will allow us to re gain a healthy mutually satifying sex life as we move into our 60's.

I was keen and encouraged my wife to share this session with me as we are experiencing very different levels of desire. I was hoping to learn more about how best to ensure my partners experience was pleasurable. I think I did.

I also think the session gave my partner a framework that will make it easier for her too not only help me learn who to best pleasure her. But how she can learn more about her capacity to enjoy intimate pleasure. Not only with me but also alone

I find it easier and am far more motivated to talk about these issues than my partner.

In particular having a conversation about how I can best offer her a pleasurable experience has been challenging.

Tonights session created an opportunity to both learn & share our thoughts, fears, desires & emotions on this a critical contributor to the health & strength of our relationship. As well as our physical, emotional, spritual & psychological health.

Thankyou

Could I also ask you forward the link to the upcoming program discussed at the end. I missed the details and couldnt see them on Elis's instagram feed.

Thanks again

Couldn’t be happier with this class. Teacher was fantastic; made a fun, engaging but relaxed env where mistakes were fine. I was nervous about some of the tools but she explained concepts thoroughly and stepped us through everything carefully. Also delighted with the planter box! I would recommend this class to anyone.

It was brilliant. Learnt lots. Teacher awesome. Wish more classes like this. Please do more like this

Lara Tees • Sep 2022

Helena was a great teacher. The class is very well organised and moves at a fast pace so you really need to concentrate. The class gives a good introduction to using a jig saw and a drill. Perfect for complete beginners. Everyone’s planter box turned out looking great. A fun action packed evening learning some great new skills.

Andrea Mazzurco • Sep 2022

Leah is very friendly and knowledgeable. She explained everything clearly and answered all participants ‘s questions. I feel like i got a good handle of the process and feel like i can start making my sourdough right away. Best of all, we got a nice loaf of bread to take home and a dough to let proof and then bake. Amazing experience!

Cathy Appleby • Sep 2022

Class lacked focus. I didn't learn much about Japanese brush strokes. Spent more time talking about colour mixing and chickens. It was a nice afternoon but I was hoping to come away with a new skill.

Teacher's response

Hi Cathy,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the workshop! We are so sorry you felt you didn’t come away with a skill. A lot of the workshop is experimentation with the process, using different paint brushes, and finding the flow of painting in this loose style. I’m glad to hear you had a nice afternoon at least! We will try to add a bit more instruction for those needing more formal guidance throughout the class. Thanks again for your feedback!

Loved it, learnt a lot, and haven't stopped wearing my perfume since! What a treat.

Paulina Cur • Sep 2022

Very nice, professional and friendly teacher. She definitely encouraged me to buy watercolors and try on my own :)
Very well prepared, with all the materials needed.
Highly recommend.

Rachel Meyer • Sep 2022

So fun. Definitely great value. Want to do it again so I can make another perfume!

Chloe Jay • Sep 2022

Loved every bit of it! Only wish the class had more time! Maybe could start a follow up class? Like watercolour for beginners 2. Where you’d practice skills learned in the first class.

Mark Redgewell • Sep 2022

Good teacher and 4 hours well spent learning the basics of welding. I would definitely recommend this course and Darryl.

Hilary Schmidt • Sep 2022

Teacher was knowledgeable and gave directions that were easy to follow! A combination of personal instruction & demonstration made it easy to understand watercolor basics. Supplies and class setup were well done and promoted an engaging and friendly atmosphere!

Class was ok, but there was too much basic instruction& therefore not enough time to finish the classthe teacher was very quick to hustle us out of the class .I had thought of going back ,but now to am not too sure

Teacher's response

Hi Cindy!

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback. We will absolutely use this to better our services! So sorry you felt rushed at the end of your workshop. 3 hours a usually enough time for students, but we will try to add more buffer time at the end for students working at a slower pace. There was a workshop on after the class you attended on Sunday, so our teacher wasn’t able to extend the class time anymore unfortunately. We did allow an hour between classes, but perhaps we can look at adding a little more time between classes.

We certainly hope this experience hasn’t deterred you from booking with us again. Hopefully we see you at Work-Shop again soon!

Andrew Corless • Sep 2022

Good facilities excellent and extremely knowledgeable instructor, we would highly recommend and will look to attend further subject sessions.
Thanks for a good time

Kristine Phipps • Sep 2022

Di was an amazing teacher. She explained each technique clearly and was very supportive of our artistic attempts. The venue is in a great location. All materials needed were supplied. Loved the experience. Great value.

Di, was amazing. We had fun, learnt a lot and left with a beautiful piece of art.

Katie Williams • Sep 2022

Enjoyed the class but spent too much time on mixing colours than using the empasto.

Ben Smith • Sep 2022

Kat was so helpful and knowledgeable, we had so much fun and all smell amazing

Lep Beljac • Sep 2022

Kat is a wonderful host and there was a huge array of scents available. I felt a bit lost when it came to mixing my perfume because the class didn’t go over what scents work well together, or how to emulate fragrances you might like. I ended up disliking the 2 formulations I made but ran out of time to fix them or make another, so I ended up with a perfume I don’t like. If you want to take this class I suggest looking up some of your favourite fragrances, sussing out the notes and using that to guide you in formulating yours. I think people enrolled in this class should be given that suggestion prior to attending, given that’s not covered in the class. I sort of assumed it would be.

Michael C • Sep 2022

Great course,enjoyed it very much we’ll plan had everything I wanted in this course

Tucker Nasu • Sep 2022

I really enjoyed the class! I had been looking forward to getting an intro to the basics and background on what kind of equipment I’d need to get started and wasn’t disappointed. Darryl had infinite knowledge that can only come from real experience and was funny and friendly on top of that. Definitely would recommend!

Liam Jenkins • Sep 2022

Great teacher, fun and easy to understand lessons.

Nothing I can think of as a negative.

Our class kept getting cancelled due to teacher sickness which was really annoying but it was well worth the wait when we eventually got to the class.
It was such a fun class and activity to learn. The teacher was very helpful and the resources provided were great.
Would love to do some more tufting in the future and would definitely recommend the class.

I really enjoyed the class, the teacher was really friendly, warm and inviting. They were really knowledgeable about tarot and had lots of books,decks and tools on display to show and also had beautiful journals with there own interpretations which I felt really inspired to do, very creative.

I feel it was a great introduction, we were given work booklets that were easy to digest and understand. I feel I left with the tools and knowledge to build upon for my own tarot journey.

This is my second workshop in this space and I've really enjoyed it!
Thank you

Catherine Piper • Sep 2022

Natalie was incredibly informative and supportive. I had an amazing experience and I look forward to working more with the skills she's helped me with.

Daniel McCormack • Sep 2022

A great experience carving spoons in a relaxed and calm environment. Julian was generous with his knowledge and took the time to work with each member of the class throughout various stages of the process.

Sienna Lemming • Sep 2022

Amazing class Loved every minute of it and was worth every dollar Thank you Amy

Samantha Shaw • Sep 2022

Ivan did a great job explaining the basic concepts of car maintenance. I learnt a lot about what car parts are called and what they do. I came away with a greater understanding of what are the main things that need preventative maintenance and what to focus on when buying a second hand vehicle.

Rachel Xu • Sep 2022

Learnt about different important car parts, how to check fluid levels/change tyre etc and useful things that will help you understand what your mechanic talking to you about. Ivan is a good teacher and very open to any questions you have during or after the session.

Angie Richards • Sep 2022

Cute venue and a fun and accessible activity for all skill levels. Insurrection was good and you could ask for 1-1 assistance when needed.

Teresa Huynh • Sep 2022

Had a lot of fun. Highly recommend brainstorming well ahead of time as the 3 hours goes by quickly.

Eloise Hagstrom • Sep 2022

Daisy was great. Clear easy instructions and was available to help anytime I got in trouble. Class size was perfect and the two hour flew by. I would recommend

Gabriel Wall • Sep 2022

Fantastic session - Ivan began by covering the components in cars that are common to cause issues, and then demonstrated how we can diagnose issues with them based on how they fit into the engine.

Very valuable, especially for myself who has minimal knowledge in car engines.

Kane Berry • Sep 2022

I had such a great time at the workshop.
The space was so nice and relaxing, big plus was there was a friendly dog there. Carla the host was great and showing some examples of how you could customise your piece and demonstrated techniques. Carla came around regularly to check out what people were working on, if they needed help or wanted some creative input or feedback.
It was all organised really well and didn't feel rushed.
It's so great to take a piece home with you after the workshop.
I'll definitely recommend it to some friends to try. It's great for all creative abilities.

Thanks again Carla.

Tsz Lee • Sep 2022

Ivan is a great and patient teacher. He covered the basic knowledge about cars and answered our questions.

Lina H. • Sep 2022

Amazing instructor. Very informative class. Now I have basic knowledge about car maintenance, including changing a flat tyre, jumpstarting a car and looking out for warning signs.

Sarah Pavy • Sep 2022

Ivan was fantastic. We learnt so much, from the basics of all the car parts and terminology to how to jump start a car, change a tyre, what noises to listen for and what they might mean, what happens during a car service and what might costs be. Fantastic. And all individual questions answered along the way! His daughters made everyone coffee, Ivan told so many stories, made everything memorable or meaningful. We had great fun and walked away feeling excited about maintaining our cars!

Keatan Howard • Sep 2022

Very informative but communicated in a way that was engaging and understandable. I would highly recommend for anyone wanting to feel more knowledgeable during the car servicing process.

Ivan explained everything really well and covered a lot of topics, which I can imagine is difficult because there’s so much he could cover. This class was perfect for me having driven for a while but never learning about how a car works. I feel a lot more confident about checking my car and talking to a mechanic about it

Joshua Wigley • Sep 2022

Had an amazing time! Carla was an excellent teacher
Would definitely reccomend and try again!

This workshop is really interesting. I had never used a drill or touched a jigsaw before. Helena has a wonderful way of making you feel comfortable. Her instructions were very clear and detailed but not overwhelming and she would pop up at just the right moment with gentle encouragement or the help that you needed. I highly recommend this workshop.

Lesa Macpherson • Sep 2022

Di Kelly is such a wonderful artist and her classes are so much fun !
I loved every minute and came away with a beautiful art project and loads and loads of her professional ideas and inspiration .
Great value too !

My sister and I had such an amazing time at the Handyman workshop. Helena was brilliant, great source of knowledge and great teacher on how to use elective power tools. Helena took the scariness out of using power tools. We made a planter box which is adorable. I've learned lots of new skills which are essential for everyone handywoman's repertoire included using a jigsaw to cut the wood, how to measure correctly and use an elective drill to pre drill holes. The 3 hour class went so quickly but we happily would have stayed for longer and to learn more. Looking forward to another class in the near future hopefully.

Hamish Priest • Sep 2022

Dianne was incredible at showing us the various materials we used for the class and super enthusiastic about everyone’s art! I felt as though I learned a lot and her teaching was thoughtful and kind, she was fantastic and I would highly recommend any class from her to anyone.

Lily Harrison • Aug 2022

Absolutely Fantastic
So amazingly put together, my partner and I learnt so much and had so much fun, I couldn't recommend it more We are very excited to go out and put our new knowledge to the test, everything was so in depth and easy to follow! I'd give 6 stars if I could!

My daughter and I attended the mosaic class given by Alyson. We decorated a terracotta flower pot. Alyson was very clear with step by step instructions, and assisted and encouraged everyone throughout the workshop. She is very knowledgeable about her craft and is a very skilled artist herself. She also has a friendly demeanour and a wonderful sense of humour. My daughter and I both enjoyed the experience very much. It's a fun activity to do with family or friends, and you get to learn new skills.

Bella was full of good information and tips, I have only been playing with houseplants for 3 years and am new to Australia, so hearing those Brisbane based tips was definitly worth the money. Bellas fun, bubbley and a personality you will enjoy. I can't wait to get the handbook notes in my email so I can give it a good study.

Ian is really passionate about native bees and made the class really enjoyable. The hive splitting was really interesting.

Aaron Catley • Aug 2022

I would have liked a hand out of the different things we learnt as I might not do any wielding for several months. There were also a few things that needed better co-ordination of the site ie curtins as our masks black out when people beside you are working on their projects. I think people shouldn't be walking around with hot metal to a single water bath as we could walk into each other, especially when our masks black out. There should be a water bath next to each work bench. I really liked how we just got straight into doing the wields even if they were basic, I feel confident i could do this at home.

Nigel Anderson • Aug 2022

Very practical and plenty of time using the welding equipment. The teacher was knowledgeable, helpful and shared some great trade secrets.

Guanghui Chuan • Aug 2022

An enjoyable and insightful beginners class to welding, I felt like we covered a lot of ground the 3 hours of class with Darryl. Different welding and joining techniques were explained clearly and everyone had adequate time to have hands on practice. Very interested to continue on with future welding classes with Darryl.

Ameka Ewart • Aug 2022

The teacher was so kind, friendly and informative. It was a fantastic workshop and had all information of where to go to get supplies and recreate it all. My Mum, Nana and I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop.

Son Au • Aug 2022

Great experience, learn a lot more then I anticipated. I now know I need a decent amount of practice before starting my projects.

Peter Middleton • Aug 2022

This welding crash course is terrific. I had done a welding certificate at TAFE 20 years ago just for fun but never put it into practice, so forgot everything. This course got me welding quickly and with passable quality. The teacher is great, and the delivery is well paced, so a lot of knowledge & practice fits into 3 hours. We were welding before long, and it seemed the whole class of 10 novices were able to produce decent welds. I loved the venue, and the facilities & equipment were good. Overall a bargain to get even total beginners welding good enough for DIY projects. I'm pretty sure this is a unique opportunity to learn welding quickly. Really glad I did it.

Janice Roger • Aug 2022

Came away much more knowledgeable and confident to look after my native bees. I really appreciated the opportunity to learn more on this fascinating topic

Jennifer Mashiter • Aug 2022

I loved it! Caity is warm, encouraging, and experienced - I felt really comfortable asking questions and experimenting despite it being my first time making a ring. The venue was spacious and lovely too, especially with the buzz of conversation, music and sound of rain outside. I’ve been wanting to start creating rings for ages now, and I left extremely keen to continue learning/making. I hope I have more chances to learn from Caity again soon:)

Glad I did this class and the soap turned out great. Was fun to do in a group and the colours and fragrances to use were beautiful. You don't make the actual soap, it's provided for you as a blank canvas, and then in the class you add your choice of colours and scents to personalise it. Don't forget to bring your 1 litre milk carton to take you soap home in too. It looks good enough to eat!

Whilst baking "bread" for several years, I had no real concept of "sour dough" apart from buying it! The class was informative, interesting and Jess provided a great incite to the ups and downs of baking sourdough. My daughter Emily and I have made our "first loaf" and whilst it was not perfect, it was delicious and having our new found friend (starter Graham - named after my father who is also in his 90s) we will be certainly making more and trying to perfect this ancient art!

I loved this workshop! It was great and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in sourdough bread.
Jess, our teacher, was very ver friendly, Knowledgeable, clear and structured. The venue was very noce and I loved the fact that we were given a sourdough starter & a bread basket. It was excellent value for money and I learnt sooo much through the workshop. I’d definitely & happily attend another workshop with the same teacher.

This is one of the most valuable, inspiring and interesting workshops I’ve attended. Ian’s knowledge, experience and passion for our native bees was clear and infectious. Couldn’t wait to get home and get started on solitary bee hotels and put what I learnt into practice. A wonderful way to learn, pass on and give back. Thanks so much.

John Slinger • Jul 2022

Thanks for hosting the native bee course. The information was interesting, presented with a Hugh degree of knowledge in a setting that was ideal for the number attending. The only issue was parking.
Thanks again and I look forward to discovering more and starting my journey in encouraging the bees into the garden.

Darryl, our teacher, is clearly a man of vast welding experience and ability, an asset to Australian steel building/manufacturing and taught this basic course well in a compressed time frame.

Cliff Curran • Jul 2022

Teacher was practical and authentic . Course was practical. Instruction was clear . Gear was good .

Enjoyed the intro course . Look forward to a one to one training session.

Antony Stephenson • Jul 2022

Enjoyable and informative session. Daryl provided excellent instruction and advise. A course we’ll worth doing.

Gene Ramirez • Jul 2022

Darryl is very knowledgeable and has extensive industry experience. More importantly he explained these principles very clearly. He was attentive and addressed questions I had.

Materials and equipment provided were able and suitable to learn with

The balance of theory and practical application was just right.

8 students was the ideal number. I would not have gotten what I expected from this course with more.

Paul Cooper • Jul 2022

Presenter knew his stuff, was entertaining and didn’t mind interruptions, which were handled well

Jackie Mergard • Jul 2022

Great practical information and knowledgeable and passionate presenter. Highly recommend this workshop for anyone interested in finding out about native bees.

Sheree is a phenomenal communicator and shared many valuable tips to avoid pitfalls in the process of making customisable silicone moulds and pour resin. Worth every cent and then some! I’ll definitely be back to join her again :)

Brenda Rawson • Jul 2022

Workshop was incredible. Everything about it was great, especially Sheree! Well organised with excellent supplies. Venue was very convenient for us. We were staying in the CBD so catching the train to Collingwood was easy and then the short walk to the venue was also easy. Highly recommend!

Chris was very knowledgable and helpful, gave us great beginners tips and tricks and successfully guided us through the process to a result. The history of printmaking was interesting too!

Course Waa good, I learnt alot and the teacher was good, though she does need to let us doing the painting.

Kate Pitcher • Jul 2022

Sheree is very engaging and entertaining! The only downfall is I wish we had more time to complete everything, smaller class or a 2 day workshop. Second workshop I have been to and great value for money!

Christie Berry • Jul 2022

It was really good, very informative, well presented and lovely goodies to take home.
Thank you so so much!
You have done a stunning job Sheree!
Its a workshop that worth to go to!

Thank you Sheree for a great day !

Laura Veugelers • Jul 2022

Absolutely loved everything about today. Sheree did an incredible job at hosting our workshop and ensuring we got the absolute most out of our day. I couldn't fault anything about it. I learnt so much and have gained so much motivation & confidence working with Resin! Thankyou Sheree

Great fun. Although we were beginners the teacher made us feel very comfortable. We’ll be back.

Nick • Jul 2022

Charlotte- if only every couple could hear you talk, relationships at every level would be a whole lot better off. Porn and instagram culture is now driving sexual relationship dynamics and that’s sad really. Those who go on a sexual tantric journey with like minded partners, we know. Oh my god, do we know. HOLY SHIT. And those that don’t know - only have to hear you talk about it. Keep talking, keep writing, keep practising. We are all on a Journey to the Ninth Planet and I want to end up on the same planet as you.

A great setting and a wonderful discussion by Charlotte of the possibilities tantra presents to expand relationships through establishing consciousness and intentional connections

Bethany Richards • Jul 2022

What was the teacher like? Approachable, easygoing and very educational.
How was the venue (if applicable)? Comfortable, clean, open and pretty!
If materials were provided, did you like them? The tools were easy to use, so was the wax.
Was the experience good value for money? For sure, I haven't seen the end product yet but based on the others from previous classes posted on Caity's Instagram, they look amazing.
What did you do / learn? I learnt how to carve a wax ring which will act as a template to produce an exact replica. They put plaster on top of the wax, then melt the wax and fill the void with silver. It's an exact replica, which Caity then buffs and polishes. It's very good value!

Camille Bergerson • Jul 2022

Class was instructional and enjoyable, and the teacher was nice, knowledgeable, and helpful.
I was hoping we were going to be working with silver but when the instructor explained everything, it made sense why we were using the wax instead.
Would recommend:)

Sarah Cohen • Jul 2022

It was a fun night, the teacher was really friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend!

Nigel Postill • Jul 2022

Caity was knowledgeable, helpful, patient and fun. The course was well run, interesting and enabled me to create something worthwhile whilst teaching me new skills. Thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommended

Victoria is so great and knowledgeable in what she does, it was a great deeper dive into the zodiac and how it makes up parts of our personality. The place where it was held was chill and cosy, parking wasn't to terrible either.

Would definitely recommend this place to a friend, I plan on going to another workshop here in September.

The mosaics for beginners with Alyson was so much fun, informative and productive- all materials were provided; many inspiring examples were on display and we all left with a completed (except for grouting) product - so happy and satisfied.

Susan Stern • Jul 2022

Teacher was good. Disappointed in the final colours. I wanted yellow/black and got khaki and black. And black/white and got brown and black. The oven was too hot. Also I wear clipons and there was no fittings. So at the end of the day I had no complete earrings. Luckily I had some fittings at home so at least I had a couple of finished pairs. Thanks for an interesting day.

Sarah Cameron • Jul 2022

This class was great! As a not particularly creative person who loves earrings it was so much fun to turn blocks of clay into my very own design… and they actually look good. Chris gives great guidance and has lots of patience. Highly recommend this class.

Michele Pezzimenti • Jul 2022

Great workshop at a fantastic venue. The teacher was amazing! She was very warm and helpful. Her instructions and demonstrations were easy to follow. Absolutely loved the finished product of my earrings.

Paul Bilic • Jul 2022

The lesson was a great way to get into Sourdough! Leah was fantastic and made for a great evening. We've already made 2 at home.

Nathan Morley • Jul 2022

Leah provided a thorough explanation of the bread making process. She is knowledgeable and approachable.

Shalini Pehrinparaj • Jul 2022

Great class size (8 students) with a fun and informative trainer. Relaxed atmosphere but I learnt lots. Very glad I went!

Nathan Bailey • Jul 2022

Michelle is a fantastic teacher, I *really* appreciate the way she "streamed" the class, showing people who were faster how to do something and then repeating it for the people who were a bit slower. I think this is a brilliant approach for keeping everyone engaged regardless of their familiarity with the needed techniques. And for those of us who needed a bit of extra help, she was very happy to explain or show us what to do on a 1-on-1 basis.

I also appreciated the many options she provided for us in terms of materials, meaning our final product was very specific to each of us; and also teaching us where to get those materials (and the necessary tools) if we wanted to continue to make journals ourselves afterwards.

The venue is a delightful space for creative adventures, a hidden little gem upstairs in a side-street of Collingwood! Loved it and the people there are creating great experiences for fun and learning.

It was a great afternoon, I enjoyed learning, others in the class were friendly and helpful and I really appreciate feeling like I could do this again on my own.

Katrice Doyle • Jul 2022

Loved this class so much! The teacher Bella was super friendly, super helpful and just really wanted everyone to succeed. Everyone got one on one time at every step but there was still so much we learnt in the session time. I really love this, I wish there was a class after this like the next step from beginners because I would buy a ticket in a heartbeat!

If you have been looking at this class and were not sure, it’s great value for money, I’ve been able to keep going in the days that follow and have made a few granny squares now and it’s just amazing! Thank you Bella so much!

Pauline Risoli • Jul 2022

It was a really relaxed atmosphere catering to all skill levels. Fun but educational at the same time. Lots of transferable skills which I will use in other settings.

Friendly and welcoming trainer, Helena.
I found this introductory course useful and very practical. We learnt basic skills by making a planter box. This included using a jigsaw, drill, clamps, hammer, measuring properly etc.
I found the little tips along the way the most useful and would highly recommend if you want to improve your DIY skills.

Sarah Duke • Jul 2022

This was a very gentle introduction and easy class for anyone who has never done crochet before! Belle was approachable and explained things in an easy-to-understand way. She created a warm and open space where it seemed everyone including me was very comfortable. It definitely inspired me to continue to learn and practice crochet.

Fiona Goulding • Jul 2022

Helena was a fabulous teacher informative and helpful. It was great to walk out with a planter box that you made. Thanks for the experience

This workshop was so much fun. Michelle was a great instructor, with clear direction and plenty of individual help when needed. The way the workshop was set up allowed for some customisation of our leather journals, which was great. Super happy with the end product and will definitely be looking to do more bookbinding and other paper-based workshops with Michelle in the future.

Mandy Girvan • Jul 2022

Super fun! Teacher was Liana who was lovely, friendly and firm, giving excellent assistance and advice. Liana Was able to understand when people needed more help and when they were feeling more confident which is really appreciated!

The venue was beautiful, a big space with bathrooms. Highlight was the sweetest studio dog.

Accessibility notes are it is up stairs and the chairs were a bit flimsy for heavy girls like me. I was confident to ask for another chair but I know some wouldn’t be so something to consider.

Would recommend and would go again!

Megan Tingate • Jul 2022

Helena was a fantastic teacher. The simplicity of the instructions made what might be a daunting task for a first-time power tool user relatively simple. The positive attitude of Helena meant that even when your planter box is not perfect, it is still beautiful. Thanks so much!

Its an expensive class - i think it could be a bit cheaper personally.

Maybe consider updating the description too.

The teacher Helena was lovely and made us all feel so comfortable. We could ask any questions and her response was so informative and helpful for when we are at home. I picked up lots of tips for shopping for materials and tool and she has made me feel confident to take on other small projects. I also had a good giggle with the ladies also participating.
Ps. I also loved having the dog about it really brought a calm but fun atmosphere.

Vanessa forgot about the class and so we got a bit delayed in starting the workshop. Sally (who came in place of Vanessa) was an absolutely lovely and great teacher. She had the perfect balance of guiding us and also letting us find our own way with the clay. Cannot recommend this class enough, it was thr best way to spend my Sunday afternoon!
Made a whole bunch of things and am eagerly looking forward to getting them back glazed and ready to use!

Nicole Lazos • Jul 2022

The teacher was great, helped everyone keep up with the pace but allowed ample time to complete each section. He was very helpful and knowledgable.
The venue was set up well but it was freezing cold, something to consider for future classes held in Winter Also cleanliness in toilets was not great. Tea towels to dry hands is not very hygienic. Also maybe consider suggesting people bring lunch, there are very few places around the area and time is wasted driving/walking around to find lunch or even a coffee.

Elise Wall • Jul 2022

My partner and I had the best time attending this workshop. At this workshop you get the hands on experience in creating your sourdough starter, feeding your sourdough starter, stretching and folding the dough and tasting the end product.

This workshop is a true start to finish experience and the best part is you can be an absolute novice (like I was) and walk away feeling confident enough to start your own starter and baking sourdough.

Leah was such a great teacher. Very approachable and very knowledgeable. We had a large class of 10 and none of us were left behind and we were all able to ask questions.

Also the bread was absolutely delicious.

Caddie Meredith • Jul 2022

This was a fabulous introduction to Tufting. Helena was such a great teacher. She really showed us everything we needed to know and explained it all in such great detail. I left the course with confidence and knowledge on what I learnt over the two days. Everything was provided, and Helena really used our class time so well to be able to leave at the end with a finished product. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone considering tufting as a hobby. Thankyou.

I really enjoyed those course. Helena was really knowledgeable and explained and demonstrated the steps really well and made it very easy to follow. She was really helpful when we needed help, and anticipated our needs, by keeping an eye on everyone's yarn needs and spinning the yarn for us before we even needed it. I am really happy with the rug I made, and the skills I learned and this it was good value for money

Penny Wilson • Jul 2022

I really enjoyed this class! It was so nice to be in a woodworking environment that isn’t dominated by men. The space was great, easy to find, lots of nearby parking and they had a lovely smelling incense burning which was instantly relaxing, as someone who does yoga.

Helena, our instructor, was fantastic. She didn’t just show us what to do, she gave us tips and general knowledge about woodworking that would apply to any future projects we might be interested in pursuing. She was attentive and helpful and made sure that she got around to everyone to provide guidance or assistance.

The class was perfectly timed, I walked away with a completed piece and confidence that I can continue woodworking and see a project through from start to finish!

I have done other classes and courses (not Work-Shop specific, just generally) where time got away and I walked out with a half finished project and it doesn’t provide the same sense of achievement. So being able to leave with a completed piece is an important aspect to me!

I would definitely recommend this class, and this positive experience will no doubt lead me to attending more Work-Shop classes in the future.

Molly Burke • Jul 2022

The venue was super cute and our teacher was so experienced and helpful whilst still giving us full freedom to experiment and create as we liked. I would absolutely recommend this for couples, siblings or friends to do together, its a great activity and I can't believe how great the quality of the end product was. I can't wait to try more classbento classes! 10/10

Suzana Bonin • Jul 2022

I can say she taught me a new skills which I would have never learnt using YouTube. Helena gave equal attention to all participants
The materials provided were of good quality
The environment and other participants were very supportive
I highly recommend this class to any one who love DIY projects and believes that creativity has no limits

Janina Kurnuszko • Jun 2022

Most enjoyable class. Gave you an indication of how to use some tools and how to incorporate them into an actual finished product. Teacher was very pleasant and helpful moving around to everyone at different times. Loved the fact that you could take something home at the end of class.

Maria Hamsitzis • Jun 2022

Great fun! It was great to learn about the tools and actually build a finished object in an encouraging environment.

Alexandra Harper • Jun 2022

Teacher was really great - explained everything perfectly! It was the best having time to make the planter to take home. Thanks

Tania Parker • Jun 2022

Helena was awesome! I still don't know how she got across so much valuable info in such a short time (& I usually have the worse memory!). The facilities were great, we got all the equipment we needed, and Helena went through all the functionality and the way to use them all safely. AND I got to go home with a plant stand which I built myself during the workshop. It's really made me far more confident in trying to use more tools myself after taking this workshop - I HIGHLY recommend this to others, and will be checking out the other workshops these guys hold. LOVED IT

Julie Lowerson • Jun 2022

Excellent evening with a very informative & patient facilitator! It was enjoyable & constructive & I completed the task with great assistance!

Highlight is the Workshop canine!

Linda Whiteside • Jun 2022

Great introductory course to build confidence using basic tools. Helena was great. She was clear and concise in her instructions and explained everything in simple terms. Her emphasis on safety was excellent whilst still encouraging us to dive in and have a go ! Leaving the workshop 3 hours later with my planter box was extremely satisfying and has given me the confidence to tackle other small projects at home. I would highly recommend this workshop for those seeking the confidence to start working with timber and basic power tools.

Amanda Lawless • Jun 2022

Great introduction to power tools and how to use them safely in a welcoming and safe environment to learn.

Rani Hannah • Jun 2022

Helena was a fabulous teacher. It's a great class learning great skills. Very patient and there's a dog!

Theresa Turner • Jun 2022

I really enjoyed my morning learning how to weld. Darryl is a great teacher. He gave excellent explanations, step by step demonstrations, and was attentive to each and every one of us when it was our turn to have a go. We got heaps of time to weld, and as well as being honest about our work, Darryl was very encouraging. A positive experience - I'll be back for the next course.

Laura Hennessy • Jun 2022

This class was amazing! Helena was super knowledgeable and helpful. Venue is really nicely designed. All tools and materials provided and loved the output. Would recommend this class for sure!

The lady who runs the class is very knowledgable and has a real passion for plants. She sources plants which suit a beginner and have the best chance of surviving. We left the class full of new knowledge on how to get the best out of our Terrarium. I would highly recommend this class.

Jeanette Robins • Jun 2022

Leah was very friendly, enthusiastic and a great instructor.
We learnt the basics of sourdough bread making and tasted samples of bread and crackers. I didn’t know there were so many things to make out of sourdough! We came home with a loaf of bread, dough to bake another loaf and starter to continue the journey. Most of all I left with the confidence that I could do this at home. Thanks Leah.

Amanda Restovic • Jun 2022

The class is fantastic, so much value for money. Allows you to see if you would like tufting before investing too much on your own, whilst learning the basics and best practice. I definitely recommend to anyone interested in having a go.

Jeffery Lillington • Jun 2022

The class was very informative the time went so quickly, Darryl our teacher was fantastic. For a short time he fitted a lot in. I would highly recommend his class.

This was a great class with teacher Emilie. She was very encouraging and made everyone feel like they could experiment and play, and reconnect with the art of drawing - even if we weren't very good yet!

Andrew Carroll • Jun 2022

Course was great. Darryl knew his stuff and was clear with instructions. The 3 hours flew by and before we knew it we had finished! Course left me with enough confidence to buy a welder, practice and have a go at those odd jobs that need doing with confidence. Gear supplied to practice with was good and learnt how to operate different machines.

Warren Chan • Jun 2022

Darryl is a very funny guy and
The venue located at a very quiet and easy to find area.
The equipments that the class provided are up to date and very easy to use. Also the experience is good value for money. I learnt a basic welding skills and the knowledge about different welding machines and equipments.
Thanks again to our tutor Darryl!

Ashlee Arnold • Jun 2022

Coptic book binding was challenging and fun.

Michelle, our workshop leader, was great! She was really enthusiastic and passionate about her craft. Michelle provided all materials and the tools necessary for the workshop. Everything was of high quality and we had a range of things to choose from to really personalise our final product.

Coptic was a tricky bind to learn, especially as I was new to bookbinding. Michelle went at our pace, stepping in and helping us when needed. We went a little over time to finish our binds, and Michelle happily stayed with us to make sure we had beautifully finished books to take home.

Our teacher was fabulous, she hit just the right balance between friendly/encouragement and keeping the class pace moving! I liked that we had lots of drawing opportunities and learnt about proportion, ways to loosen up, draw more, and accept that any drawing involves distortion and editing. My first drawing class in 35 years and won’t be my last!

Meabh Murray • Jun 2022

The teacher was very friendly and provided a lot of information, including a handout sheet on how it’s done and the materials/tools you’d need to do it at home. I really really enjoyed this workshop! The 3 hours flew by because you’re so focused on your creation but there is still plenty of time to experiment and make mistakes. Overall a brilliant class and well worth the money!

Angela Kelly • Jun 2022

Was a welcoming environment. The instructor and daughter were warm and helpful. Booklet provided all the information which I could work through as the workshop went on, giving me experience and then confidence when going home to do the task again on my own. All materials were well ordered and easily accessed. Instructions were clear. Workshop provided me with all the information I needed. I particularly enjoyed that there was not too much time taken on giving instruction but in doing the task.
Greaat workshop. Thankyou

Edwina Cameron • Jun 2022

Dianne was a fabulous teacher. She taught some basic principles in a fun way but didn’t make us all do the same thing, which was great. The canvases that we finished were amazing & all so different. The 3 hours flew by, would love to do again

Alice Wu • Jun 2022

I greatly enjoyed the Japanese Woosblock printing class today in Collingwood. I felt the class was well prepared and I learnt a lot and everyone was friendly. The teacher gave us some invaluable pointers on where to buy supplies and technique supervision was really appreciated. I had a look at most participants work at the end and for just 3 hours great talent and enthusiasm prevailed

Kate Burton • Jun 2022

Vanessa's watercolour class was exactly what we needed on a Friday night - simplified instruction with focus on a few key techniques, plenty of wine, great music and company, and a real freedom to experiment with allowing the watercolour to do what it wants. Loved it - thank-you Vanessa, we'll be back!

Michael Davis • Jun 2022

What a great class.
All equipment provided.
Tom is an amazing, personable teacher, he’s definitely worked out how to get different types of student from zero to having basic skills within no time.

Dennis Lai • Jun 2022

the class is located in a yard outdoor behind an old workshop so on days where it is raining or is very cold it may not be as comfortable but lucky for us we had a sunny day although it was a bit windy and cold. they offer bathroom facilities and tap water. I suggest bringing your own drink if you are not happy with tap water. the location was quite easy to get to but parking can be a bit scarce.

our instructor Daryl was very friendly and helpful. you can tell he is very skilled and knows his stuff. there was 3 sit down sessions which total to about an hour of sit down lesson and the rest on practical. there is no desks for the sit down sessions and the chairs are simple black fold out metal types with very thin padding so if you have back issues please be aware.

The welding station are setup on plastic fold out tables and there is 2 stations per table. as there are not enough welding machines you get to partner with someone and take turns welding. one of the biggest issues with this setup is when people from the other staton moves it would shake both the welding stations so it is hard to weld in a straight line when the table is moving. During the actual welding Daryl walked between the groups and offer tips and look at what we are doing and inspected our work. overall I am very happy with the class.

Karen Goltz • Jun 2022

Not good value for money.

Bella was a great teacher! She is a beautiful soul who was so welcoming and inclusive and very patient with all of us. She was very encouraging and engaged with the students. Even when I felt like mine looked like crap she reassured me that I was doing great for my first time. We had a wonderful and small group and it was awesome to have a genuine conversation with everyone while we worked away at our little punch needle projects. I just wanted the class to go for longer because I was loving it so much! Follow up classes would be great! Maybe something to consider, cos I would definitely go back!
I wish Bella all the best with her teaching and continuing her passion for needlework, sewing and Drag! X
P.s her doggy Pheonix stole the show! What a cutie face!

Jayne Melville • Jun 2022

Fantastic class and the teacher Helena was really helpful. I went with the intention of gaining more confidence with tools and her tips were great. Particularly the use of a hammer to avoid bending nails. I made a great looking planter box that will be used on my deck at home. With the skills I’ve gained I’m confident I could tackle a similar project at home now.

So much fun - it was the perfect Mother's Day gift and we all enjoyed the way Daisy not only taught us how to do this in the class but gave us the instructions and tools to replicate it at home - well worth it and well worth opting in to have the ceramics provided from the studio of the gifted Daisy.

Stephen Doble • May 2022

Darryl was a great teacher. It's a hands on course, you'll be having a go using the welder not long after the course starts. Good for people like me who didn't know where to begin. The venue is a little rough and ready but everything worked just fine.

Darrel was excellent in the way he conducted the class He was informative and yet still casual and informal in his approach. This put everyone at ease right from the start.

I came away having learnt and more importantly proven to myself that I can weld at a sufficient standard for the jobs around the house that I want to take on.

I did the course with my son and we both enjoyed the experience and the fact that we could do it together.

Les Parker • May 2022

Nice and relaxed class plenty of laughs and lots of things learned great class and teacher if you want to get started in welding

Caity was lovely, great venue although parking was slightly difficult (to be expected in Fitzroy), all the materials and tools were provided, as well as demonstrations and coaching on how to carve the wax ring.

I would have liked to have seen the casting process, but that is done offsite through a third party. Having the ability to watch or participate in the finishing/polishing process would be a great addition to future classes if people are interested.

Beatriz Bravo • May 2022

Super lovely and chill silver ring making class. The provided tools of files, fire, and ring sizing were all super easy to use. The instructor was super helpful with lots of tips and happy to figure out how to make someone’s design work. Excited to see the final result and maybe do more on my own.

Sam Hall • May 2022

A thoroughly informative class for anyone who wants to up their earring game.
Teachers are great and plenty of materials and tools are provided.
It was a lot of fun and I learned a lot of the tricks and tips that you won't master outside of a hands on class like this.
Having the two different artists with differing opinions and techniques was fabulous as well. It allows you to feel confident in experimentation, encouraging you to "create".
I'd recommend this class to anyone that has fundamental experience with polymer. If you've never used polymer before take the beginners class first so you get the most out of the masterclass.
The only drawback for me was that my resined earrings didn't make it home. They were still quite wet leaving class and I hit a lot of speed humps driving home . So not the fault of the class at all.
Advice for anyone else taking the class; Don't drive home via wellington street!

Working with resin was also great.
This class provides the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of polymer clay jewellery making and I would recommend it to others.

Happy enthusiastic teacher, great venue, perhaps smaller class size would allow more individual guidance, notes on the night May have been beneficial!

Suwarna Barsagade • May 2022

Hi
Me and my friends had good experience with this class. We have few suggestions as below.
1. We were expecting more knife painting strokes as the subject was knife painting
2. Time for artwork on board was less compared to colour mixing
3. We basically had idea of colour mixing beforehand were expecting more on knife painting techniques.
Overall the class was good but focus could have been more on knife painting than other activities.

The class was amazing and Sheree was so thorough and fun at the same time. My daughter and I did this class together and we absolutely loved it. We learnt many new skills and Sheree had a whole heap of materials to learn with which was great. Didn’t realise how quickly the 4hrs went as we were thoroughly enjoying our class.

I think the class itself was OK but I did not come away learning how to do a granny square. This was due to the large size of the class and the lack of availability to have the instructor have enough time with each table. Our group of 3 were particularly bad at this task and struggled throughout the lesson.

This class needs to be a touch longer, and probably with lesser participants. Written instructions might help, as would examples of each step of the way to be able to look at what we are trying to achieve.

It’s not as easy as it looks to learn how to make a granny square but it has great potential.

Teacher is so lovely and super helpful. The supplies you're given are very high quality and the location is very nice and spacious

Jess O'Farrell • May 2022

I am brand new to clay and this class was an excellent starting point. I learnt fundamentals and then also was able to explore a few different techniques and design styles. I noticed it was also great for those that were already familiar with the medium, because there was so much access to materials. A great chance to experiment with so many different materials and techniques to see what really grabs you. I made 3 pairs of earrings and some extra bits and pieces, but I was quite slow and I noticed other people made a lot more than I did. I enjoyed using resin to coat some of the earrings, and made some matte options and some resin options. I've attached a photo of the resin pieces that I made.
Sheree and the other teachers were outstanding. Very knowledgeable and generous with their time. Sheree is also a really fun character and brought a lot of joy and life to the workshop.
The workshop is bright and light filled, and packed with inspiration for making the creations.
There were tonnes of materials to chose from. If you can imagine it, you can make it.
I went to this workshop on my own and found lots of other solo-makers there to befriend. But honestly I was too busy to even chat. The time flew by so fast!
Thanks to Sheree and team for a really fun and inspiring day :)

Sheree, and her co-teachers Amie (Feeling Kissy) and Kubra (kil by k) were absolutely incredible. They were welcoming and had so much experience and knowledge to share. They made time to work with everyone one-on-one, and Sheree was great at tailoring her course to the mix of experienced makers, small business owners, and total utterly-lost beginners (like me!). I’ve been wanting to have a go at making polymer clay earrings for some time, but never known where to start. Sheree’s very comprehensive course has given me the skills and the confidence (and the supplies) to take the leap.

My only advice to total beginners wanting to try the course - bring some ideas with you, like colours, inspiration, shapes, or anything to give yourself a starting point when it comes to actually making. Sheree offers so much choice and freedom, and I (already quite socially anxious) was fairly overwhelmed with all the options. Sheree was amazingly supportive and encouraging, and allowed me to work at my own pace, so I knew that once I was home, in my own space, with creativity flowing, I now have the skills make the earrings of my dreams :) as well as many quality resources to refer back to. I’m sure I will be taking more of Sheree’s classes in the future.

What was the teacher like?
She was amazing, she spend equal time with all the students and thought us heaps when wanting to make earrings.

How was the venue (if there was one)?
I loved the venue, great space and really funky.

If materials were provided, did you like them?
I loved all of them, our good bags are amazing.

Was the class good value for money?
Yes!

What did you do / learn?
I learnt how think it’s needs to be when applying resin, how to make Caine effect and how to make a slab out of my scraps.

I would do this class again- I am also going to do her next class in July.

Afroditi • May 2022

Cheryl Rabe • May 2022

I really enjoyed this class but I agree with other reviews that maybe too much time is spent on colour mixing and not enough on teaching technique. We had just under an hour to start working on our piece, which felt a bit rushed. The venue was spacious and well-equipped and there was plenty of paint, and sufficient tools. I have the confidence to try this technique at home after this class.

Catherine Barnsley • May 2022

Very well taught class, lots of interesting information on the resin.

I really enjoyed this handbuilding with clay workshop. The teacher(Helena) was very through in explaining the principles of hand building and was kindly attentive and encouraging to each individual in their clay hand building and also gave great tips and suggestion along the way. The venue was a perfect art/craft creativity zone and was warm and welcoming. Many people had attended and it was nice getting inspiration from other participants creations. I am thoroughly happy with my clay pieces and I also enjoyed the whole atmosphere of being around people focusing along with the process of creating.

This is the second class from Workshop I attended. Sculpture class was amazing. Alexander is great teacher; explains not only the best way to start sculpting but makes it interesting and gives lots of tricks from his experience. I feel that after the class I can go ahead and practice on my own.
Also the place is very welcoming and with nice decor.
Recommended as one of the best classes to get you into sculpture.

Daisy Cooper is a great ceramic artist so it was a pleasure to have her teach this class.

Helena is a natural teacher. Clear instructions, had a sixth sense when you needed help and was at your side with an infectious warm laugh and gentle skilled guidance. I couldn’t recommend this workshop more highly. I had a fabulous night and brought home a beautiful planter box made by my own hand even though I’m the least practical person I know. It was outstanding value for money. Do yourself a favour and book in immediately. I’ll be back for more.

Marie Cacoyianni • May 2022

Excellent course. The instruction and help were outstanding, introducing a variety of new skills, techniques and use of essential woodwork equipment and how to measure correctly. It is satisfying to take home a finished project, a planter box.
Helena is a fantastic teacher!

Kushlani Premachandra • May 2022

This was my first time going to a class like this and I can’t believe I didn’t do it sooner.

Helena was a really great teacher, I learnt so much! I would love to come back for another session to learn about other tools or even just make different projects.

I left the session feeling incredibly proud and accomplished.
(There was also a cute friendly doggo)

Would definitely recommend it to a friend!

Rachel Glover • May 2022

The class was fantastic. Even though I had little understanding about plants I followed all that Bella shared. There was so much information that will help me with my house plants. I took along my mum (who knows a lot about plants) and she learnt so much more too.

Helena is a super knowledgeable teacher and made the class very accessible by sharing her knowledge. She also gave us a lot of creative freedom while giving enough direction and assistance so that all of our creations were amazing.

It's a big two day class, however it's totally worth the effort as my rug is the best most professional looking craft I've ever made.

The venue is amazing there are more than enough supplies for everyone and there's a super friendly doggy.

Brooke Skuse • May 2022

Was expected to predict 3 days in advance that I would be sick and not able to attend the workshop. No compassion was provided and as a result I will not bother to attend any future workshops and would not recommend them either.

Teacher's response

Hi Brooke,

I’m so sorry to hear your were unwell the day of your workshop :(

Unfortunately we need at least 2 days notice of a cancellation. The policy is at the request of our teachers because materials are purchased based on the class size, and because this is a plant based workshop (thus perishable) the materials can’t simply be transferred over to another class. I'm very sorry we can’t be more flexible on this.

The cancellation policy is included in the terms and conditions of your ticket purchase. When you purchased your ticket, you ticked a box that agreed this policy.

In the case that you need to cancel within the 2 day lead up to a workshop, we are totally fine if you send a friend or family member in your place! There is no need to transfer your ticket to a new name.

Hope you are feeling better!

Dianne is a fantastic teacher & it was such a fun class. We learnt how to put a watercolour paper concertina album together, different drawing techniques with different pens, and how to add some colour and several different types of colouring. She had lots of printed examples to try and also demonstrated the techniques. She encouraged out individualism & we all came away with something special & unique. Thanks for starting me on the journey Di

My mother and I attended the Shibori dyeing workshop together recently, and we both had the MOST amazing time!
Roz, the teacher, was welcoming, gentle, genuine, knowledgeable and her passion for her work was inspiring. She readily shared her skills and made time for everyone in the group.

The venue was an amazing space, very bright and open, with a sweet studio puppy to keep us company as well.

We were provided with lots of time and materials to complete numerous samples trying different techniques before we moved onto our finished products. Roz provided a few options for our final products (scarves, tea towels, socks) - not the tote bag as advertised unfortunately. My mum and I brought along our own fabrics to dye as well, which was great.

All in all, we were both amazed at the value of the workshop, we felt we got SO much for our money. Thank you so much Roz for an amazing experience!

Jess Domingo • May 2022

James Lawless • May 2022

This is a great introduction to welding.
We were shown how to do basic welds and were given advice on what kind of equipment to buy if we want to do some welding at home.
It was great to get hands-on experience, but if you want to do good welds (ie not ones that look like a dog's breakfast) you do probably need to practice a bit!

Jack McGinn • May 2022

Great introduction with a lot of time actually welding. Looking forward to a gas welding beginners course.

Nicole Torres • May 2022

Victoria is a very professional and informed teacher! I loved learning about the basics of astrology. My only recommendation is to make more time for our own birth charts; it was quite rushed at the end as we ran out of time. I’d suggest skipping through parts that are already in the workbook (like the qualities of the zodiac) as we can easily refer back to them another time.

Valerie was a fantastic instructor. The venue was very hot and the power kept tripping. It was great value. I learned a lot. It would be better to do it in another venue which has airconditioning, better power, and facilities suitable for learning how to do cold process. But besides that, I really enjoyed it. Had a blast!

Great value; loved the take home kit to make my first bee house. Best bit was watching a hive get split and hundreds of tiny bees flying around us.

Daisy was an amazing teacher - I feel like I learned so much! The workshop was beautiful and we were provided with enough clay to easily make 3-4 items. Definitely a great night out, I’d book again in a heartbeat! :)

Margaret Wise • Apr 2022

What a class ! Di is an incredible instructor. I could have listened and watched her all day. She is so inspirational. Can’t wait to sign up for another one of her classes. Thank you so much Di.

We had so much fun and learnt so much in our ceramics class on Tuesday night. I am very excited to see how the pieces turn out!

Zarinah Hienekamp • Apr 2022

Teacher was really great, terrific venue and all resources were provided. A great class and night

Amanda Sabo • Apr 2022

This was exactly what I needed to dip my toe into a new craft. Daisy was lovely and personable, and obviously very experienced and knowledgeable about all things clay. She was eager to share her skills and facilitate each person's vision for what they wanted to achieve in the class. The group was small enough to allow for plenty of 1 on 1 support based on each person's skill level and ideas. All materials and equipment were provided, and Daisy was very clear about what will happen to our pieces after the class (i.e. drying, glazing, firing), and how we can collect them when they're ready.

I couldn't fault this workshop, it met all my expectations and I can't wait to book in another session with Daisy!

Deborah Davis • Apr 2022

Perhaps I should have read the outline of the course more carefully as I am not into pinch pots. Vanessa is knowledgeable and clearly delivered techniques and general instructions.

Teacher was okay but not overly warm or friendly. She seemed to be bored as she presented the class and didn’t seem to enjoy doing it.
It also was a bit average serving cold water. A simple tea or coffee would have been better customer service for the price we paid.

Teacher's response

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback Alisha. We use student feedback to better our services :)
We are sorry you felt your teacher didn’t seem overly warm during the class. We know she takes working with resin pretty seriously, as it’s a potentially toxic material if not used properly. For this particular class, we don’t recommend eating or drinking too much during the workshop. As mentioned, resin is a potentially toxic material so we wouldn’t want our students to accidentally ingest. Resin is also quite an expensive material, hence the higher price point of the workshop. We hope this clarifies some of your concerns, and we hope you’ll join us for another workshop in the future :)

Russell Pata • Apr 2022

The class was well organised and the teacher Daisy was very knowledgeable and great at imparting it. It was a fun atmosphere and I would recommend it highly.

Natasha Orel • Apr 2022

The course was really great … amazing what we acheived in 2 hours and I will feel confident to use the processes I learned at home. Lovely bright studio space and Daisy was so kind and knowledgable

Sarah Hope • Apr 2022

This is my second workshop with SCC and I would definitely go again. Kubi is a great teacher, offering as little or as much input on your work as you’d like. Three hours might seem like a long time, but you’ll be amazed at how quickly time flies. Loved the space and the materials provided, although it’s a little tricky to access via public transport. Overall, highly recommend.

Sue-Ellen Rosenberg • Apr 2022

I had heard of Sydney Collage Society some time ago and when I found that there was a class on, I thought I’d check it out. The venue was easy to find and I loved the vibe of it. What I loved most of all was the astounding array of books to cut up and use. Spent a fine afternoon making collages. Felt more comfortable making the abstract ones than the portrait ones.
I’ve been currently attending collage classes at WEA which I thoroughly enjoy. Our amazing tutor is putting together a show for us to commemorate World Collage Day on May 14th from 2pm-4pm at Scratch Gallery Marrickville. Come and check us out. There are ten of us in the show.

Susan Birdsall • Apr 2022

Daisy was a great teacher, very thorough and helpful. I had wanted to learn the techniques for some time and was very happy with the workshop and the ability to continue at home with the materials supplied as a starter. I would recommend the workshop to anyone.

Tashi Grey • Apr 2022

A great class for beginner collage enthusiasts!
Everything you need to get started on collage, and good advice and guidance to help you throughout the process.
Kubi is a great and enthusiastic teacher, happy to help with any questions or issues that might come up.
Highly recommend, would also make a great and thoughtful gift.
Thanks again Kubi!

Thank you @Alexander Esenarro for your encouragement, helpful tips and trick to bring the best out in all of us. Such a fab, diverse group of people attending and creating wonderful, unique sculptures too. I did think halfway through that I would take a break, a long walk and not return, however the second half brought it all together - thank you! A great afternoon using the other half (and very unused part) of my brain - feels like meditation! Bonus, my family (who totally believe I don't have a creative bone in my body), even think the outcome (sculpture) is impressive!

Michelle Craig • Apr 2022

Daisy was great - the perfect mix of helping and letting us do it. I had the smashed up lid of a favourite jar that got dropped and now it is back in use. It was a fun class and now I feel confident to do it at home.

Anonymized Customer • Apr 2022

It was a great day, really enjoyed it. Alexander was really great and encouraging. Awakened my creativity and will definitely go again.

Yumi Jones • Apr 2022

That was a great class. I could learn Kintsugi with modern materials. I think it will be very useful for daily life.

The teacher, Alexandro, introduced himself and outlined the goal of the class.
He was very attentive to each of the 7 students throughout. We had one student needing a person to sign the instructions which occurred seamlessly and all of us produced rewarding work. My grandson, 13 years old and the only child in the group, really enjoyed himself. The was praise and careful correction.
Parking (on a Sunday) was easy but getting lunch, difficult. I recommend the class.

Geoff Braid • Apr 2022

Darry was a very good and experienced teacher. He showed patience when two class members turned up late, which I thought was great.
No issues with the tools or location.We needed more explanation on the tip distance with MIG welding and what to look for under eye shading. This takes a lot of practise.
However, I would give the class 9/10.
The class made me want to do better with welding.

The class was fabulous. Daisy was so patient and encouraging. She explained things clearly and nothing was to much trouble. Left feeling very confident I can do this at home. I particularly liked we all has out own basic supplies and could take them home at the conclusion. Thank you Daisy for a wonderful afternoon.

Leonie Seabrook • Apr 2022

Natalie Sweeney • Apr 2022

Alyson was great. She has a wealth of knowledge and was thorough with her explanations and demonstrations.
Materials were plentiful though I think I would have also liked the experience of creating a flat mosaic as well in my first attempts

Fran Upton • Apr 2022

Excellent and great fun. Inspired to make more mosaics and complete the current project. Thanks

I came to this class as the first of some - a gift from my sisters and daughter. My 80th birthday. They had chosen this course as my first and I was not disappointed. Claire took us through a series of steps/moments in a careful manner. Claire provided each of us with what we needed for the evening and a blank book and pens to be taken home and used. Claire has motived me to follow on and use each page. She is polite, respectful, encouraging. If she was to run another course I would be very interested to pursue it. Thank you for having her as part of Classbento.

Claudia Wize • Apr 2022

Emilie was lovely & very patient. Would recommend for beginner crochet. My daughter really enjoyed her time.

Wonda Ball • Apr 2022

Absolutely brilliant basket weaving workshop in an easy to find great location venue. Roz was a welcoming and friendly teacher of her passionate craft.
Her knowledge of diverse basket making techniques, natural weaving fibres , native plants and dyeing techniques was inspirational.
She nurtured every participant through their learning and skills development.
Roz was so personable, open to questions, advice, listening and hands-on in a one to one tutoring style whilst being inclusive of the whole group. Obviously a very talented facilitator of group dynamics. As a visual learner l really appreciated how Roz circulated around the group to show each participant the ‘next step’ skill.
Do l want to do more classes with Roz? - Definitely!

Tara Pycroft • Apr 2022

Terri Wyeth • Apr 2022

Teacher was nice and helpful. The class is a bit too expensive. But it was great to be as creative as you wanted.

Zoe Hattaway • Apr 2022

I don’t believe the class was worth the price as the materials were different to what was displayed on the website (lower quality boards) and the class went for two hours when it could easily have been completed in 60 minutes.
If the above were amended then it would be a good class.

Genevieve Harris • Apr 2022

Had 2 beautiful little kokedamas to take home at the end of the class

I would recommend this class to anyone.

Saskia Klompenhouwer • Apr 2022

The teacher was lovely and the class size was small enough to get help with the fiddly parts when needed. There was also a fridge to keep our BYO drinks cool, which was nice on a warm evening.
There was a good range of materials to choose from, however some of the beads and stones did not have holes so could not be used.
The overall experience was fun and it was exciting to learn a skill and have a finished product to take home. Would definitely recommend to others.

My partner and I both haven’t lino-printed since high school. It was a treat! The teacher was so knowledgeable and very clear in the instructions.

All of the materials were easy to access and we were told where to buy them if we wanted to do Lino at home.

We had fun and made some lovely prints!

Tam Nguyen • Mar 2022

Dagmar Rowlands • Mar 2022

The workshop was very informative and well presented. I wasn’t sure if 3 hours would be too long, but the time flew and there was so much to learn. We are inspired to fill our garden with bee homes, flowering plants and start taking greater notice of what is flying around.

Ian is so passionate about bees and helping beginners get into supporting their local environment. Great PowerPoint, loads of info but broken up with hands on stuff like showing us the process of splitting a hive and tasting the fresh honey and passing around bits of resin and wax. There is so much to learn but he is so passionate and really loves his stuff. Can’t recommend this workshop highly enough.

Maxine Peacock-Smith • Mar 2022

Darryl provided all of the equipment we needed. His instruction was good, and being a beginner, I learned a great deal. The class size was 9 so we had a lot of attention from the teacher.

Jessica Kelly • Mar 2022

Sheri was a wonderful teacher. She explained the process in a lot of detail and with demonstrations to ensure that everyone produced great resin cheeseboards - but also so that we could try the process at home ourselves which was really awesome. Would definitely recommend Sheri and this class!

Sarah Riley • Mar 2022

Tammy facilitated a wonderful class on pattern making, suitable for beginners to intermediate designers. She provided an excellent explanation on the basics of design and provided great material for inspiration. There was more than enough time to create my design, and play around with it until I was satisfied with it. Tammy is an open, approachable teacher that helped coach us to bring our design to life. I love my new skill - it's so addictive! I want to make patterns all day long. The venue was really lovely too; centrally located with plenty of parking available, and comfortable and creative.

Natalie was so passionate and great at delivering the workshop. It was good value for money and a nice unique experience with other likeminded, open, people. It was very basic and beginner level which is great for anyone with no experience. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who has a bit of experience in card reading or any kind of psychic ability, it’s more for absolute beginners, which was perfect for me. Thank you!

Penelope Coutts • Mar 2022

The teachers were very friendly, helpful. It was my first time using ploymer clay, I learned many useful things in the class. Unfortunately, the oven was broken so the clay we made could not be cured at the venue, which causes trouble to cure at home as I don't want to use the home oven. I don't suggest to go on a hot day as it is very hot inside, the venue doesn't have air-conditioning.

Christine Griffiths • Mar 2022

Had a brilliant time at this event - if you ever want to learn how to do Mosaic this is the course to take. Great input by the teacher - plenty of how to do's & great cheat sheet to take home.
Looking forward to doing an advance course in the near future, when available.
Yet to fully complete this project but will tackle it this week.
Thanks for a great afternoon.

This was such a fun and informative class. As a beginner I found it a wealth of knowledge to start off my clay journey the right way. Sheree and the ladies were so lovely, friendly and funny. It was a high energy day that went too fast. Can't wait to attend another class in future.

Darryl was super friendly and a great teacher. Took his time to explain concepts verily clearly. Was a bit nervous going in but Darryl made us feel right at home. Had a great time and learned a lot. Looking forward to more classes with him

Damian Fawkner • Mar 2022

Super knowledgeable and friendly teacher. Made it a lot of fun. He was very happy to share his experience to help us.

Carla Jones • Mar 2022

Sheri was great! She ran through things pretty quickly, but was very helpful during the session to help when I got lost!

Kerry Pyle • Mar 2022

Brilliant experience. We learnt so much and had a great day. Our instructor was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We’ll be back to level up!

Sheree was fun and supportive and had great tips and tricks that we could use. I really loved the freedom to experiment with the myriad of tools and gorgeous clay colours we were able to play with. While the 8 hours was amazing I really didn't want the day to end! I felt very inspired.

Bee Hasseler • Mar 2022

I had a very good time at this welding class, not just a lot explanations, but a lot of actual welding metal. Darryl, out teacher, came with a lot of experience as a working welder on job sites and his instructions where safe and easy to follow.
We got the very basics done in a three hour class, and we can take it from there.

John Hallam • Mar 2022

Engaging and Great Teacher, Great Class - sensible, fun, practical, and I learnt lots. Thank you Daryl.

Craig Beechey • Mar 2022

Great workshop and great experience. Darryl is a master craftsman, very knowledgeable and very helpful, giving excellent insights to his trade and the use of the equipment.
Highly recommended.

Fiona Russell • Mar 2022

A fun & relaxing class. Future sessions should be 3 hours, instead of 2. Would love to participate in future classes hosted by Sheree. She provided plenty of materials to use & we were spoilt for choice. As the class was hosted in a new venue, information on parking would have been super beneficial & would have saved 10 minutes driving around to interpret all the different parking signage.

Victor Simone • Mar 2022

Highly recommend this class for newbies like me. Listen & you’ll learn plenty. More then enough to get you started at home. Fantastic teacher too, very experienced, happy to engage & answer all your questions. Would like to do a more advanced or different type of welding class with same teacher.

Robin Jack • Mar 2022

Teacher was super friendly and clearly knows his stuff. Very good introduction into welding, very informative. Definitely will carry on learning to weld.

Michelle Siu • Mar 2022

The class was wonderful. Daisy gave a great demonstration and very hands on in assisting throughout the class. It was nice and chill, 3 hours went by quickly. Sangria was a great addition and we really enjoyed it.

Sheree and her posse are brilliant artists and presenters. It was a great day packed with information, assistance and an awesome goodie pack. Really professionally run, entertaining and fun ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cheryl Charlton • Mar 2022

Di gave a very good worshop. She only had 3 hours but I learnt new ways to use a
paint brush and paint. This I am sure will help me in my weekly watercolour classes.
It was a most relaxing experience and a lovely way to spend the eevening.
Di is a lovely encouraging teacher who gave very good demonstrations and considerable individual help.
I would certainly consider going to her weekly classes if I wasn't already attending
another.
I would be interested in a still life workshop should Di offer them.
The venue serves its purpose but I would like to suggest two smaller tables rather than a long one. I was towarsd the end and would have liked to be closer to hear and see demonstrations better.
I am thinking of giving this workshop for a birthday present to others.

Amanda Vilela • Mar 2022

The teacher was awesome! Accurate, super didactic and friendly. I had a lovely time, learning and playing at the same time.

For next a next time, I'd love to follow the drying and painting process.

Janice McCallum • Mar 2022

Alison was a great teacher and made everyone feel very welcome. The venue was great with easy parking and all our needs were catered to. I thoroughly enjoyed the session and learned heaps about mosaics.

Michelle Emanuel • Mar 2022

What was the teacher like? All the teachers were amazing. Friendly, full of very useful information and encouraging everyone to step out of their comfort zone.
How was the venue? The venue was great, though needed some bigger fans on a warm day like today.
If materials were provided, did you like them? All materials were amazing.
Was the class good value for money? 100% value for money

Jennie Dunne • Mar 2022

Thoroughly enjoyed my Mosaics course today. Alyson was wonderful and extremely patient and generous with her time and knowledge. Wonderful to be able to take something home that I created today good sense of achievement. Looking forward to continue with my new found skills. Would thoroughly recommend Alyson and Classbento. Thanks for a fabulous afternoon. Jennie

Super interesting and helpful.

Thanks so much!

Vicki O’Meara • Mar 2022

I loved the simplicity of the class. No fancy bells and whistles just a great learning environment with a very knowledgeable teacher (Bella) who made us feel welcome and encouraged plenty of questions! I learnt heaps, had all my questions answered and walked away motivated to try propagating anything at least once! Great experience thanks Bella!

This class was excellent, the teacher was thorough. He explanations of the basics were clear and she she showed us how we could embellish from there. The time flew.

Kate O'Donohue • Mar 2022

I really enjoyed the plant propagation class with Bella last night. She is full of energy and knowledge and clearly has a great love for plants. I'd really recommend this class for anyone who is interested in house plants and keen to grow their own collection from their own collection. Some really great tips on how to nurture your indoor garden.

Maggie Court • Mar 2022

Such a friendly and knowledgeable teacher! The perfect combination of expertise and likability. Great value for the money and appreciate all the materials provided.

Tessa Neil • Mar 2022

It was great to n learn about the process of design and to spend a few hours being creative

Sarah Williams • Mar 2022

The kokedama class with Bella was a great experience. Bella loves her plants and is really knowledgeable about them and a great teachers. The class was in a relaxed and fun environment and we left with all we need to replicate these projects at home.

Jo Asher • Mar 2022

The Native Bee workshop was so interesting, the time went really quickly and we were very happy with everything. Ian kept us all engaged with his enthusiasm and vast knowledge. Looking, smelling, touching and tasting different things helped greatly to. A goodie bag included made a special touch also. I was very pleasantly surprised.

Courtney Walsh • Mar 2022

Excellent Class, Joanna was very friendly and approachable. Can't wait to keep practicing everything i learnt. Thank you Joanna

Abbey Ashton • Mar 2022

Jennifer Cochrane • Mar 2022

Great teacher who was friendly, well-informed, articulate and passionate about the subject. Ian used his time well and took us on a journey over three hours that was well structured and enjoyable.

Vince Poncini • Mar 2022

Thoroughly enjoyed the Native bee workshop 101. Ian is a wealth of information. I found his workshop well designed but packed full of information. Given the nature of the subject, I can understand why Ian has challenges with sharing his knowledge in the time permitted. I would encourage other people to attend the workshop even if they do not intend to own a Native bee hive. After attending Ian’s workshop people would be more conscious of the Native Bees in their neighbourhood and enjoy them.

Gemma Steele • Mar 2022

I booked for this class about nine months ago, you cancelled it twice and when the date came around I didn’t get a reminder. Thanks for nothing, I guess.

Sandra Monkhouse • Mar 2022

We could have received more feedback from the teacher on the day. More interaction with all students is probably needed.

Francesca McNamara • Mar 2022

Good venue. Clear instructions. Lots of materials. I found it abit rushed and a 10 minute break would help as it’s hard work on neck and shoulders.
Certainly came away with some new skills

Barbara Old • Mar 2022

I attended with a friend who was a art teacher for many years We both enjoyed the class and got so much useful information. We have been searching or such a class for a long time. It was hands-on and the teacher, Daisy, was attentive and gave great suggestions. Highly recommended xx

This is a creative and fun class. There was a variety of mediums to use to paint the Maneki-Neko. The teacher (Carla) was very helpful in giving tips and suggestions with the color design. Overall this class was relaxing, fun, and joyful. I was so happy to take home my own custom color designed Maneki-Neko.

Leon Fernandes • Mar 2022

I loved this class. I've always wanted to learn how to paint lettering that doesn't look crap. As an artist (and a messy one), my skills at painting neatly were abysmal. However, I learnt some simple tricks about brush handling and brush cleaning, which made it much easier. I even mastered painting my own signature.

Emily Chou • Mar 2022

Jonny Gorhm • Mar 2022

Wanted to say how much fun I had in Gaston’s class. He is a very good instructor. Very nice and well spoken. I will be looking into more classes from Gaston and will continue sign painting. Money well, well spent. I loved the studio that the class was at. It was a inspirational day for me. Thank you again for letting me have one of the best days in a very long time. We will see you again!

The venue was brilliant - great space for lots of people to gather.
Sheree was a brilliant teacher, she was so approachable and welcoming and made everyone feel at ease. The day was long but we covered plenty, and the items included in the package made this a really great value for money event. Would highly recommend for beginners or even those who are very experienced with polymer clay. Thanks Sheree!

Paula Brown • Mar 2022

We had a fantastic day. The class moves fast but there is plenty of support from Alexander. We were blown away by what we could achieve. This course was definitely worth the wait. We were beginners with no experience. We booked the class as a group of 3 for a birthday. Highly recommend the class (the supplied materials & equipment, the location space, and most of all the teacher - Alexander).

Les Lamy • Feb 2022

It would have been good to have seen more examples of both beginner style work but also more advanced work at the beginning of the workshop so we could see we could aspire to being able to do one day

Such a fantastic course and really enjoyed all the hands on time! We learnt how to do "slabs" and some of the "finishing" techniques to make the final earrings.

I didn't find there was enough of the instructor coming around while we were working for feedback on our progress not sure if others were going up for feedback or she was working on pieces but I only saw her once in the time around the tables.

I was also a little disappointed that there was only one making technique demonstrated - the plan outlined at the beginning of the course was that simple canes using scraps would be demonstrated which unfortunately didn't happen.

The materials on offer were very generous and I was really pleased with what I produced in the time.

The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and talented, perhaps a bit abrupt at times but not to the detriment of the class.

I was extremely disappointed that there was no proper snacks or break offered in the class, which was scheduled from 10-2pm, and no advance notice of lunch arrangements was provided in the booking details.

Would definitely do another similar course to learn other techniques.

Linda Goss • Feb 2022

Great class. Sheree is clearly a talented artist and teacher. Her humour and ability to put everyone at ease really allowed everyone space and permission to try, make mistakes and learn to rework their piece into a glorious creation. I really loved her approach and message about mindful making. Can’t wait to do the master class next

Katherine Withoos • Feb 2022

2 ClassBento workshops attended

Had been eagerly anticipating this class for quite some time (stupid covid delays) and Sheree did not disappoint. The class is fast paced and chock a block of info. The boxes we received were sensational, the literature was essential and the supplies available to use, plentiful!

Sheree is a wealth of information and her knowledge of clay is second to none. She’s fun, friendly and I wouldn’t hesitate to book another class with her in future.

If I had to provide a downside, I’d say the venue was a little unsuitable. It was a warm day and with all the people, the space heated up very quickly. Also, the communication from Workshop itself was a little frustrating. I had to follow up on multiple occasions to get updated info about the class, I also didn’t receive any form of communication that the class was going ahead when it did. I had to email to confirm this.

The venue is spacious, which was handy considering we’re in a pandemic. The session was very well organised. Materials were provided in the middle of the tables and at the front table. There was lots of variety of colours and all sorts of accessories, so plenty to explore and play with. We get a booklet with all instructions and tips to keep for ourselves, which I thought was a great idea. Sheree is hilarious and knows her stuffs. She had 2 other assistants to help- bonus! Sheree did a few demos with very clear explanations! I had a lot of fun, although it is pretty intense with tons of info thrown at you (especially if you’re a beginner like me). Nothing a beginner cannot do though.

Overall definitely recommend Sheree. Will be attending more sessions with her!

Jacq Ceh • Feb 2022

This class was so lovely and relaxed! The teacher was fun, skilled and made sure that each member of the class received adequate instruction without being intrusive so that each attendee could enjoy the experience of embroidery!

Di was a welcoming, passionate and skilled instructor. She prepared a workshop for all to engage in successfully, with or without previous experience in use of ink and watercolours, or drawing. The materials were and venue set up were ideal, encouraging us to share and engage. Everyone got lost in their own sketches. Excellent value for money. Simply loved this session.

Caleb Turner • Feb 2022

Caity was extremely friendly and helpful to everyone in the class.
This course was a wax-mold based method of ring-making and Caity was always checking in on people, giving technique tips, and helping people make the designs they wanted.
Left the class wanting to continue making rings, thanks Caity!

Fun experience with good instruction but I was surprised at how much water is needed (and potentially wasted) in the process. For that reason, I would probably not do it again but it was a fun class overall.

Merilyn Jones • Feb 2022

The teacher was knowledgeable, and certainly very charismatic. I felt there could have more information about the errors to look out for, and common mistakes. There could have been more information about how to repair or make amendments if you do make a mistake. I guess the point is that given the amount of information to the price of the class ~ it could have been a wee bit better with information. Besides that feedback, the class was enjoyable and Daisy was very nice.

Peter Miller • Feb 2022

This class was a fun Friday night! I loved how much advice we were given about painting - which is applicable to all painting :)

Louisa Harvey • Feb 2022

Very knowledgeable teachers.
Accommodated different ages/ skill level
Friendly
Workshop booklet difficult to read- capital font and centred made reading difficult. A good reference for future candle-making though.

We had a great time at the candle making class.
Friendly teachers
Easy to make
Very relaxing

Max was great, the place was great and the vibe was great! All around a top experience. Max, the teacher, was generous with his knowledge and insights. His adorable dog, Frankie, was just icing on the cake. The lesson and overall skill is taught with sustainability very much at front of mind - all magazine resources are donated and the collage process is done in such a way to use every individual cutting over and over again, making this a really eco-friendly and low-cost craft to learn. Set in a funky warehouse filled with creative art along all the walls, music gently filling the silence while everyone eases into the process with a glass of wine in hand - bliss. Highly recommended, particularly if you go as a group with friends or as a date, as it’s a unique way to gain insight about a person. Thanks Max, Frankie and co, we had a great time and hopefully there are more classes in future! Can’t wait to get our scans!

Merrilyn Doeland • Feb 2022

I loved this class and learned a new skill that i can take away with me for life and fun!
Great vibe and class environment and was comfortable and inspiring for an Art class. Great interaction among everyone. Everything was provided and the teacher was great and explained everything really well with constant interaction with us. Learning this will certainly help for a new hobby but also a great idea to teach friends and be able to give gifts to friends using my new skills!

Great class. The teacher was fun and friendly and really knew her stuff. Made everything look easy and was really helpful when we needed help. Great crafty and arty venue. Made getting creative easy

Kate Milton • Feb 2022

I really enjoyed this class! I was a complete beginner in painting, and we spent time on basics and how to mix colours, which was really helpful. I also liked that we all got to paint whatever we wanted, so no one's final work was the same, and I left with something I actually like and want to hang up. I'm definitely not a pro now, but it was such a great way to try out a new skill without investing in all the equipment, and in a fun environment. I wish the class went for longer, and I'll be continuing to play around with impasto and paints on my own.

Great night great fun for something new! My only concern is I don’t live close and when I booked it stated - you will be able to pick the pieces up 12-24 hours later. At the class I was advised I should be able to pick it up the next morning as it will only take 6-12 hours to set. I was told to pick it up during cafe hours (close at 12) turns out the cafe is not open on weekends. I had already made plans to stay out that way so I didn’t have to do the drive another day. Well now I have to. The heads up would have been good that’s all. Other wise all around enjoyed the class and would recommend if you lived close.

Kee Forster • Feb 2022

Teacher was friendly and approachable. She was happy to answer any questions and offer assistance to anyone struggling with the task.

The space wasn't air conditioned and it was very hot so that made it a bit hard to concentrate and enjoy ourselves, but this is no fault of the instructor.

Natalie was a very passionate and approachable teacher, who helped everyone warm up into the space and activities to share their own sensory experiences and understandings without judgement. The workshop certainly opened my eyes to this practice and I felt really privileged to have engaged in others stories in new ways, as well as my own.

Stacey Hutcheson • Feb 2022

Justine Sargent • Jan 2022

Alexander's class was just as good as I hoped! Great instruction, great location and space, small class and lots of one on one time to get hands on help, explanation and tips and tricks. My partner came with zero artistic experience and we both had a really great day. Alex was so friendly and engaging, and a great teacher. I'd be interested in ongoing sessions and additional mediums.

Oscar Jones • Jan 2022

Teacher was very nice and encouraging, and gave some very useful information for the class. The venue was such a relaxed and chill environment and work from other classes made a great back drop. Everyone recieved plants that they were happy with and the materials provided were of of quality. The price is a little steep seeing all materials were probably only $25, but the class was very enjoyable and I highly reccomend.

Barbara Davidson • Jan 2022

Great informative evening. Science meets great taste. Learning and developing the fundamentals of yogurt and cheese cultures in our modern day. A wine, laugh and tasting couldn’t have been better.

Lots of laughs had by all the girls, Emma Grace was very helpful to those of us who were already a few Prosecco’s deep and needed assistance haha, and it’s been very funny seeing where everyone’s tassels ended up the next day. Do yourself a favour and book this for some giggles with your girlfriends!

Mayumi Purvis • Jan 2022

What was the teacher like?
Tammy is knowledgeable in surface design and had helpful tips on how to place artwork for best outcomes. I would recommend letting class participants know they can trial their design by uploading to Spoonflower earlier in the class to see immediate results, and then edits and changes can be made if needed.

How was the venue?
The venue had a great creative vibe, and was comfortable and spacious for the 8 participants in our class.

If materials were provided, did you like them?
It was helpful to have the textiles on hand to make an informed choice for purchasing different fabrics, and to see how the colours would print on different fabrics.

Was the class good value for money?
I believe so. For tutelage, post-class edits and a metre of fabric, I was happy enough to pay the fee for this.

What did you do / learn?
Designing a pattern for fabric is fun, and can be very meaningful! It is also not always as easy as it looks! It was good to find out about Spoonflower and how I can preview a design straight away.

Thank you Tammy!

Ina Lazaro • Jan 2022

The teacher was fantastic, gave some really good tips and tricks on candle making. The venue was lovely, spacious and suited the diy nature of the workshop. I would say though for the strong scents of the oils, it was a little small but I understand that big spaces cost more. Materials were good, except I would have preferred a greater variety of scents as they all smelled very similar. However, as a class it was amazing, I can personalise all of this to suit me at home and it showed me candle making is not so intimidating after all

Frazer Ruddick • Jan 2022

Great class held outside at Work Shop in Arncliff on a hot January afternoon. Teacher was engaging and provided us with a good summary at the start, then let us lose to get out hands dirty and be creative. Lots of fun materials to work with, and a helping hand or further information if we asked for them. Everyone created something unique and beautiful.

Be sure to buy some of Daisy’s ceramics to repair as they’re so beautiful and really add to the experience. I’m so glad I did.

Amanda Reeves • Jan 2022

Such a fun afternoon! I loved how hands on it was - Daisy ran us through a demo, gave us some great tips, then supported us as we worked on our pieces. The end result is beautiful, and I love knowing where to get items to top up my kintsugi kit as I keep practicing

Wayne Evans • Jan 2022

Bella was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about all things indoor plant related, for the local climate. The workshop was a great space and set out so everyone had a view of the teacher. The plants and moss provided were from local, sustainable nurseries.
I'm very happy with the outcome of my tropical dome and will look to book another class with Bella in the future.

This was a fun session with lots of support offered by Daisy.
Daisy is very personable and engaging.
Everything you need was supplied apart from the broken objects you want to practice on.
I am delighted with my repaired items, one was a cheap and nasty small bottle which now looks fabulous as an incense holder. The other, a jug which l now value even more as the kintsugi has made it look amazing.
There was plenty of time to complete at least 3 items.
You get to take the kit home and Daisy tells you where you can get more supplies so you can continue learning in your own time. Totally recommend.

Franka Tuchelt • Dec 2021

I loved the Kintsugi workshop. Daisy explained everything really well and took her time with every student individually also.

I would attend further welding developing lessons with classbento if they are offered.

Darryl was a great teacher, we got to try a lot of different welding techniques, was definitely more of an art to making the welds look as good as his!

Was a great intro, 3hrs doesn't seem like much but it was plenty to get you started, doing basic welds and a good taster for trying out more.

I didn't get to attend due to the class rescheduling but I'm sure I would have loved it.

Helen Leahy • Dec 2021

This was a good introductory class on welding. Darryl was helpful and made the class interesting. I think 3 hours was too short as I was just getting the hang of it by then. I took this class to see if I would like welding and then continue on to make sculptures. I'm still not sure if I would be any good so the only improvement would be if a second class was added to give a bit more practice and instruction.
Worth it though!

Thierry Lacoste • Dec 2021

Good introductory course, well organised, friendly and efficient.
Darryl, the teacher, explained well and demonstrate first how to do it, then the students (8 in total) replicate the exercise in group of 2.

Margaret O'Riordan • Dec 2021

Great teacher but disappointed with the visor. I couldn't see the work as I was welding which limited the experience.

Warren Cartledge • Dec 2021

A very easy to understand instructor who explained things in simple layman terms.
All the safety aspects were explained in practical - home handy man - language.
We had plenty of time to try sticking bits of metal together, and by the end of the three hours we were all able to "weld"
The instructor was very patient and understanding considering the level of trainee prior knowledge.
I would recommend this class to anyone who ever wanted to try welding but was to timid to try. Thanks Darryl

Amazing - full of information I don't know where I'd get elsewhere. Ivan was professional, friendly, completely open to answering any and all questions, and extremely tolerant of constant interruptions caused by an over enthusiastic member of class. I would highly recommend this class for car owners everywhere. Go into your yearly car servicing without complete ignorance as to what needs to be done.

Ivan is an excellent communicator - he gave very clear information and explanations, and was happy to answer all questions.
The workshop was held in Ivan's professional workshop so there was plenty of space for us all to sit a comfortable distance from each other, as well as for Ivan to set out all of the car pieces to show us. The space was very clean and we were all offered hot drinks, and provided with water.
I thought the class was great value for money and Ivan gave us lots of information about how much various parts cost as well as how frequently we should all be doing our own car maintenance, apart from regular garage services.
Ivan gave us practical demonstrations as well, including where to check oil, how to tell if your car needs more coolant (or if a leak has developed), how to change a tire, and so forth.

Ivan Signorelli • Dec 2021

Had a great course, learned way more than I was expecting. Darryl was a great teacher. He looks the part, was very knowledgeable and supportive.

Tony Button • Dec 2021

Darryl is great. Very knowledgeable and he could obviously take any advanced class as well, but he makes beginners relaxed and willing to have a try. This was my first experience welding and was a lot of fun and if he does another extension class I will definitely be booking.

Valerie is super knowledgeable and was skilled in sharing information. It was fun playing with the soap mix and designing our own soaps, and I feel confident to try my own at home

John McMorrow • Dec 2021

I attended the terrarium workshop on Saturday morning - Renee was an excellent instructor - she was very knowledgeable, patient and helpful - the venue itself is suitable for this type of activity, although parking is tricky - I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will consider training

Imogen Tate • Dec 2021

It was a great class- very informative and was able to create what you wanted.

Ian Hutton • Dec 2021

The teacher was very informative and the information was to the point. The venue could have been better but was suitable for the topic.

Helena was an excellent and attentive teacher. She made the class very enjoyable and fun! We will definitely be back!

Kristy Phang • Dec 2021

The teacher is an amazing artist with highly developed skills.
We completed a few different skill pages and learnt some great techniques.
My favourite was probably the galaxy exercise.
A class for anyone who has never worked with watercolour.
The venue was nice, make sure you bring your own drink bottle!

Michelle Herbert • Dec 2021

I had zero resin experience and found this was a great introduction to working with resin, casting moulds and using colour.

Sheri was full of knowledge, willing to answer all our groups questions and give advice.

I even walked away with some pieces to wear!

I lOVED this class. All of the materials and equipment supplied - and there was plenty of foliage, cones, seeds, baubles and flowers for everybody. Helena gave clear instructions and was fun and helpful, and now I have the most beautiful wreath hanging on my door.
I love the Work-Shop Brisbane venue in Newstead, the atmosphere there always helps me get my craft on!

George Katsiouras • Dec 2021

Alexander was very patient and made the class fun and easy to follow along.

He showed some brilliantly simple techniques that allowed us to turn simple shapes into works of art.

I was amaze at how much fun clay sculpting could be and appreciate all the extra attention and care he provided.

Will do another class with him for sure.

If you want to start a journey of clay sculpting and make your first beautiful little semi realistic bust? This is the class.

Sarah Potter • Dec 2021

The venue was easy to find and parking was easy too. All materials were provided and the course was very thorough. Sheri's relaxed and easy to talk to personality set a lovely friendly tone for the class. Her descriptions were clear and easy to follow.
It was a lot of fun .

Jacquie Hudson • Dec 2021

We all had a great time. Class went super fast. Was a very hot day but the venue was kept cool with large fans. Helena was super nice and explained the steps well. My 5 girlfriends and myself loved our wreaths and there was lot of Xmas joy creating our master pieces. We are planning to attend next year

Angela Miller • Dec 2021

Ian was so informative and passionate that this class was both enjoyable and valuable. Of course it has set me well and truly on a path of wanting a native bee hive. It was a nice, simple venue and with the big fan it was quite pleasant in temperature.

Was a fantastic workshop filled with lots of information and lots of fun. Was relaxed and a great team building activity.

John Falzon • Dec 2021

I found the workshop very informative considering I had no prior knowledge about Native Bees. Ian Driver’s presentation to the class was excellent and he made great use of visual resources which he brought along. I liked the relaxed atmosphere of the location which wasn’t like a typical sterile/boring classroom style room. I would highly recommend anyone interested in attending to take the opportunity to go to one of the Native Bee Keeping workshops because you will not be disappointed.

Claire Platz • Dec 2021

The class was amazing! The 6hrs flew by so quickly but was filled with so much fun and learning new skills. Alexander showed us all step by step in creating the sculpture and didn’t overwhelm us with information or make us feel under pressure. This was the best experience, I’d definitely recommend it for anybody who wants to learn a new skill + have fun in a supportive environment.

Ron Weinert • Dec 2021

Good and interesting material and very well presented.
Better than I expected.

Jill Edwards • Dec 2021

We had a great day, learnt a lot. Roz was very helpful. Only problem we found it quite a rush at the end of the workshop, with everyone trying to dye their fabrics at the same time. We could have done with at least 2 vats and probably encouragement to get moving so to avoid the rush.

Louise McNab • Nov 2021

Emilie was friendly, helpful and provided clear instructions. I really enjoyed the class. If there was more time, it would be great to hear a bit more historical background.

Glenn Croft • Nov 2021

Hi I'm Glenn Croft. I did the welding course for beginners. Darryl the instructor was great he explained things so you understood what he said. The venue was a bit rough as they are moving to new premises it was OK. Some of the welding helmets were rough but they did the job. The course was worth the money and I learned a lot.

Peter Grant • Nov 2021

Enjoyed the weding class. Very informative & helpfull
Teacher a big improvement on last class I attended
When is the next available class I can book into ?

Look forward to other more advanced classes in future!

Jessica Walden • Nov 2021

Steven was fantastic! I booked this class for a bit of fun, didn’t really have much in the way of expectations (it’s finger-painting after all!) but Steven brought so much knowledge to the class, it was really great. It was a very casual and welcoming vibe at Work-Shop, a fantastic location, drinks and all materials were provided. Can’t fault it!

Jeffrey Lee • Nov 2021

A very fun and productive afternoon learning the basics of welding with Darryl.
Good balance of safety and getting stuff done.
Learned how to lay down metal, butt join and fillet join.
A great starter for someone looking to give welding a go or maybe for someone who is not sure about their career and want to try something different.
10/10

Michael • Nov 2021

Teacher did a fantastic job, getting us straight into welding, with minimal fuss and only the most necessary briefing. He had a friendly and humorous manner which made us newbies feel comfortable. If i was to offer a suggestion it would be to have one welder per person as most of us were sharing, and the 3 hours went very quickly. Incidentally, the one person who had a welder to themselves had arrived late and got the bonus solo welder! That said, it was well worth it and i feel inspired to learn more about this craft.

Had an amazing class today. Our ceramic teacher, Alyson, was a joy and shared her enthusiasm and wealth of information on her passion of ceramics. She was always available to assist us and answer any questions. A thoroughly enjoyable class and our pots all looked amazing. Would recommend all my friends to give it a try, you too could get addicted to ceramics

Corentin Hamel • Nov 2021

We were quite disappointed by our experience of the Home Brewing Class. Reading at the description when buying the tickets we were definitely expecting something better.
First we paid for a 3h event from 6:30 till 9:30 but at 8:40 the session was finished. Secondly, we though it will be an interactive session where we actually do some things, which was not the case because we basically sat during two hours watching a screen. When reading the description "As a group, we’ll get the party started, steeping our grains etc" I definitely though we will be more involved but we did nothing.
Finally, I though we will be testing more beers.
Overall the teacher was nice and indeed answered a lot of questions with some useful tips but I really felt like it was over priced. The session looked a bit "cheap" and not really professional. We felt lie going to a lecture rather a fun activity as described in the product. I could watch a youtube video at home and have the same information.

Chitra Das • Nov 2021

We had to cancel the workshop at short notice due to medical reasons. Therefore, was not able to attend it. Would we be able to re-book down the track please?

This clay workshop was fantastic! Daisy was a great teacher, attentive to all and encouraging.

Good covid safety measures in place. I’d suggest coming with some ideas and inspo about what you might make. We got to make 3 med or 4 small things for Daisy to fire and give to us later.

Larger plates not recommended, but so much fun making vases, pots, mugs, small dishes and much more.

Thao Dao • Nov 2021

Daisy was a fantastic, knowledgeable, and generous teacher. Her instructions made me feel very comfortable with the techniques in the class, and being able to take them away to apply them on my own at home.
The class was great value for money, I really feel I’ve learnt a useful skill.
The space was excellent, nice and airy with good facilities.
I’d recommend bringing bar least 3 pieces with you, the more cracks the better.

Daisy did a wonderful job explaining the process and technique and was available to help during the practice stage. I didn’t feel rushed or judged. She was a great teacher.

Robin Blacklow • Nov 2021

Darryl was an excellent teacher who explained everything fully. The layout of the space was not as conducive to the course as it could be (students too close to one another, so helmets went dark).
Plenty of equipment to go around.
Learned the basics of non-gas (mig) welding.
It was 1:00 before we knew it.

With some prior knowledge, the workshop has been great for ingraining understanding and deepening my confidence.

Will definitely be joining another class soon. Thank you Sarah!

Benjamin Vase • Nov 2021

I really loved the course. I feel confident that I can do a reading now with friends and family. Sarah was excellent, personable and made me feel welcomed. I have no tarot experience and feel like I’ve learned a lot from this workshop. I told Sarah I wanted to do tarot after watching people on tik tok going live and doing readings LOL

Ian's enthusiasm is engaging and the manner in which he imparts his knowledge makes it 'stick'. The splitting of the hive was an absolute highlight, closely followed by tasting the honey and pollen. Went home and made the bee hotel supplied in the takeaway kit and promptly installed it in the garden. Highly recommended for any one wanting to increase their native bee knowledge.

Julie Taylor • Nov 2021

Di is a very enthusiastic artist and teacher. Her workshop was very interesting and informative and involved lots of practise of brushstroke work. The building is easily accessible with great parking on a Sunday. I went with 2 friends and we all felt maybe a focus on 3 main skills and definitely more time was needed to paint our canvas that was completed in haste so clean up could be done.

Roderick Gelder • Oct 2021

Great set-up with a lot of fresh air, good for both welding fumes and a benefit in times of COVID.
Daryl was great as a teacher and the class was well planned.
Learned a lot in a few hours, great value for money!

Claire Bird • Oct 2021

Great teacher, loads of enthusiasm - still baffled to learn as a Scientist working in genetics that drones are unfertilised eggs so lots here from lots of fascinating angles. The hive was just beautiful and demonstrated so well what communities can achieve that no one could alone.

Nice venue, just a little tip for future development - missed out on the yummy crackers with goats cheese and native honey as I’m Coeliac and vegans or lactose intolerant a would miss out too :). Be good to grab some dietary info from attendees (or ask people to bring their own cracker in this case for instance to make it easier) if food is involved in courses.

But fantastic session. Spent the weekend rethinking our land vegetation. Will no doubt be in touch with Ian once we’ve got the mass of flowering shrubs we are planning for some bees.

Leah Bestwick • Oct 2021

Dianne was just lovely. Showed us different techniques, explaining along the way… assisted when needed… and encouraged with positive feedback and suggestions that was helpful to make your artwork look amazing Thank you. Would do again…

Had a fun time and learnt a heap. Darryl’s clear explanations and personality made it a great afternoon. I’d highly recommend the class and would be interested if any other welding classes are available. Tks

Margaret Walters • Oct 2021

Thoroughly enjoyed myself. Daryl was an excellent communicator, very informative and good fun
Well done.

Owen Roberts • Oct 2021

Darryl was excellent, we were straight into welding with great supervision, he packed a lot into a three hour session

Nikki Lentfer • Oct 2021

If you have ever thought about keeping or even attracting native bees, or just have an interest in them, this is the class for you. My husband and I arrived knowing nothing and left ready to purchase our own hive and give it a go. It was a real bonus that we got to watch a hive being split and to taste the honey.
I recommend this class for anyone with an interest in native bees.

John Ashby • Oct 2021

Had a great time trying some welding. The teacher was excellent, explained things well and was very approachable and encouraging. It made it comfortable and easy to try something I've never done before. A good sized group paired up on welders, good supplies and help when you needed it. I felt well looked after and guided in improving my new skills.

Very well structured class. Gradual progression from simple tricks to more complex. Truly enjoyed by our family on a random school night activity.

Erin Davidson • Oct 2021

Class was very interesting and Bella was clearly very knowledgeable about the topic. The take home books was a nice touch. Location was also great.

Was a little disappointed we didn’t get to pick the cuttings to take home like the class description said (and got 2 rather than 3 as listed), and we didn’t go through preparing those specific cuttings once we get them home.

Aside from that, it was very useful and I will be looking forward to reading over the book again to cement the knowledge and put it into practice.

Grace Adams • Oct 2021

Bella was so warm and wonderful+ her two furry studio assistants ❤️.
I suffer from social anxiety and went out on a limb going to this class by myself. I'm so glad I did! I felt so comfortable! No pressure to create a perfect or particular work just fun free expression and great company. Bella is more than helpful and encouraging of exploring different styles and shapes. Helpful tips and industry insight is definitely a great pull for this class also.
I am in NO WAY a florist but I really enjoyed trying something new and absolutely love my new little bookshelf warmer.

Thank you again,
Will definitely be back for more classes xx-G

It was very interesting but a bit dry in the delivery. I know the guy had lots of information to deliver but a more hands on approach would have been more interesting. It should have been called a lecture rather than a workshop.

It requires a little more dexterity and patience than the more basic bookbinding classes, but is well worth it for those who want to increase their skills in this niche artform. Teacher is very helpful and enthusiastic and offers good stockist tips; it's fairly fast-paced and you'll go home with a beautiful journal. Would have liked a cup of tea midway through to break up the intensity. An affordable class, as is usual for Work-shop.

Friendly engaging teacher, plenty of materials available, very hands on class which was great. Covered a lot in a short time.

John Wilkinson • Oct 2021

I thoroughly enjoyed Ian’s presentation of the native beekeeping topic. His narration was clear, Concice and spoken with complete knowledge. But presented with a light banter. The time just flew by. The venue was suitable for the purpose and Ian’s material supplied and samples provided to us was really well done. He put a lot of effort into the sample bee keeping hives.
All in all it gave me a very clear insight into what is required in keeping native bees. Overall a well presented and enjoyable afternoon.

This was literally the bee's knees! I didn't know what to expect as it was a gift to my husband who would like to have bees. It was an absolutely fascinating session with Ian, who is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about all things bees.

I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more about native bees, how to support them in the wild, how to keep a hive or nest.

During the workshop, you will have the opportunity to learn how to split a hive and taste some real native honey! After the workshop, you take home a goodie bag with a diy bee home and some more information!

Thanks again to Ian for the great presentation and info!

Liz Weissteiner • Oct 2021

Absolutely loved this workshop! Dianne is a great teacher showing us how to use the many different brushes with both water colour and arcylic paint.

I loved putting colour down on the paper without actually "drawing" anything and seeing what came out at the end.

Got some great results and loved the way colour could be added to the brush to provide wonderful colour combinations on the page.

This class is not easy for beginners to follow along with. I wouldn’t recommend it for those without some prior experience.

Kate Hessling • Sep 2021

Dianne is a great teacher. Learning to hold the brush differently and not try to paint something specifically but rather evolve into an image was enlightening. Having materials provided was excellent because when you are a beginner at something you don't want to invest in this when you don't really know what you need or if you want to continue with it. Definitely recommend this session and hope Dianne does more workshops :-)

Cathy Wilson • Sep 2021

Dianne was fabulous and I learned so much. It was really relaxed and everyone could go at their own pace and choose what they wanted to focus on. I really enjoyed it.

What was the teacher like? Vanessa was very attentive and knowledgeable, she helped assist in my creations where I had acryllic nails I did not take into consideration before attending the course.
How was the venue? The venue was nice and set up well.
If materials were provided, did you like them? Yes, I loved the materials provided.
Was the class good value for money? Yes, because the Vanessa was great and provided alot of interesting knowledge and explained the costs for clay shortages and firing costs.
What did you do / learn? I created plate, bowls, spoon and learnt how to manipulate the clay properly, cut the clay, mould and facts about pottery construction.

Jessica McCabe • Aug 2021

Other students were more experienced, but we were given a lot of freedom to play and explore at our own pace - my friend made 8 pieces and I made a whopping total of 3, haha! I don't think anyone felt held back or pressured by others in class. It was also wonderful to see everyone's different creations at the end.

Jade Holmes • Aug 2021

A great class and teacher. Chris provided a well rounded overview of lino printing, scattered with some printing history and background. Chris guided us through the creation of our prints, answering all of our questions and giving us lots of tips and insight into the different products and tools to explore if we wanted to try for ourselves at home. Relaxed atmosphere, nice venue and good teaching pace. Overall a really great experience!

Leith Hudson • Aug 2021

I am really disappointed with the lack of service, I had really been looking forward to doing one of your workshops and had made the arrangements for myself and 5 colleagues to attend as a team building exercise. The day before the workshop my 7 month old son was admitted to hospital and when I asked for our class to be rescheduled, not refunded, the response time was slow and I was told that this didn't comply with the terms and conditions of purchase. I feel that this is really disappointing, I couldn't have known that my son would be seriously ill 3 days before hand and I wasn't asking for a refund. It felt a little uncompassionate for extenuating circumstance. Seeing as my son was being covid tested and in isolation, I would appreciate a refund for my ticket as it is against the law for me to have attended. I would have been satisfied with a rescheduled class, however, this experience has now left a sour taste in my mouth about your organisation. And I would not recommend.

In regards to the actual class, the feedback from my colleagues who could attend was that the delivery was good, the presenter was knowledgeable. However, it was off putting and unprofessional to have her pets be brought to the class, as not everyone is into dogs and some people may even have allergies. We have a colleague with a phobia of dogs, so this would have been a deal breaker for him when he'd paid $80 to attend - something to consider.

And finally, the general consensus is that the price point was too high. I understand there is the cost to rent the space and something for the presenters time, however, the finished product does not reflect the cost or even the example image used for the workshop listing.

Teacher's response

Hi Leith,

We are so sorry to hear about your son falling ill, our thoughts are with the little guy.

As discussed on the phone, because you guys were a group of 6 and you wanted to cancel a few hours before the workshop, it make things difficult for our teachers who pre purchase all the materials for the class. Sadly, in this case we just didn’t have enough notice. Also since the workshop materials for this class are all plant based and therefore perishable, we just couldn’t simply transfer you to the next date and reuse materials.

I'm very sorry we can’t be more flexible on our non refundable cancellation policy, the policy is at the request of our teachers who are otherwise out of pocket if we don’t enforce for them.

We try to make the 3 day cancellation policy as clear as possible before tickets are purchases, and we also include it in the terms and conditions of your booking.

We are so happy that most of your group were still able to join the workshop, and that they were able to take home your workshop materials so you could make a terrarium at home :)

We sincerely hope your son is in better health. Xo

This class had so much potential and I was really looking forward to it! I had never used resin before and I was excited to do a class where I could try it out and get some cool bangles to take home. But throughout the class I was let down time and time again

There wasn't enough moulds to go around so people were left frantically searching for anything to pour their resin into before it set.

The sizing of the moulds were also minimal and only a couple fit around my hand.

The instructions from the lady running the class we're fine but there wasn't enough time to finish before we were told we had to leave because they had another class coming in shortly. So that meant most people were left with pieces that weren't set yet or hadn't been sanded down.

I think of there were more time so it felt less rushed and some more varied moulds, it would've been a much better experience.

I hope the teacher takes this opportunity to improve her class so that in the future people can enjoy making resin bangles and leave positive reviews!

Sally is a wonderful teacher, very patient and friendly, and her instructions are clear and easy to follow.
The ladies all had a wonderful time unleashing their creativity and taking time out for themselves for a little while. It was great to see everyone relaxing & enjoying themselves, which is so very important in these current, difficult times.
Thank you Sally :-)

Fantastic introduction to native stingless bees. Ian is very knowledgeable and has a lovely approachable teaching style. Learnt so Much! Splitting a hive was fascinating.
Loved the venue as well.
Highly recommended this workshop for all people interested in our very special native bees. Why isn't this taught in Schools?

Lee Davies • Aug 2021

I had a headache and a fever and couldn't move my time at the workshop to another date as the teacher won't permit it 3 days prior to your class. I have emailed Bento and thankfully am receiving a goodies bag. The person I was emailing was really helpful and lovely to deal with. Just unhappy that I couldn't move my date.

This workshop was super informative in a very relaxed atmosphere. I had no idea how little I knew about bees.

Taste testing was a really nice inclusion.

It was a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

The goodie bag at the end with the little bee hive in it was a nice touch.

Majda Ferligoj • Aug 2021

A great productive way to relax & enjoy time with friends. Vanessa was very helpful with clear & hands-on (if required) instructions. Had a great time, & would highly recommend this class.

Monika Kish • Aug 2021

Ian was super knowledge and the entire class was informative and engaging. Would highly recommend this for anyone interested in keeping native bees Loved it

Jillian Coomb • Aug 2021

It was brilliant the teacher went through so much and splitting the hive was amazing. Even if you aren't going to keep bees you should attend just for the information on native bees.

Fantastic and empowering experience. Our bodies hold so many hidden truths that are not spoken of. It was liberating hearing these truth reiterated and expressed as shared experiences among women. Would highly recommend this workshop to anyone looking to reconnect with their sexuality.

This was yet another amazing Class Bento event. I have left the class confident that I can recreate
a yummy Sour Dough loaf myself. Leah was awesome and so patient. She had a group of mainly novices but we all did a great job. She provided us with individual attention and tips. With Brisbane heading into another snap lockdown I will have time to bake and also start on a new culture that I can call my own.
I highly recommend this class as I didn’t realise you could do so much with the dough.

Zoe Tarling • Jul 2021

Great workshop. Thanks everyone. Excited to see the finished product in a few weeks. Cheers.

Mylene Aguilar • Jul 2021

I went with my friend and we really enjoyed this class, I like how Caity firstly showed us the ropes and let us do our own thing and educated us on the whole process, I would definitely recommend this class to anyone interested in making their own treasure

Angela Dodds • Jul 2021

Fantastic workshop! Very fun and casual, but also informative. The price is so reasonable for everything that we did and learnt, and we walk away with something that we’ve made ourselves. 10/10!

Super fun and Max was a great teacher. The venue was great, fun and warmer than expected since it was a fairly large space.
Nice to create and have a wine/beer

I bought one of Max's special collage packs so I'm looking forward to creating at home.

Lindsay Drummond • Jul 2021

A lovely day blending teas and learning about different types of tea. The venue was good but a bit chilly so take a cardigan. Even with masks this was an enjoyable day and getting to take your blend away is great! Was very happy with the ingredients we got to work with and Amy was so sweet and knew her teas! A lovely thing to do in the afternoon. I would definitely recommend. :)

Comfortable learning experience
Session was presented using KISS principles. The approach allowed me to leave the class feeling O could go home and cook a basic loaf of sourdough with no fear of failure.
I had lots of questions through out the evening which were all answered.
Hand hygiene was reinforced during practice part of mixing dough.
Can’t wait to do next level class.
Thankyou Leah

My daughter (11) and I really enjoy the workshop. Location is great, the instructor really knows and freely shares advice about the medium (resin) and has inspired me to come back for more! It’s fabulous that the workshop is structured such that kids and adults can both benefit from it so my daughter and I can create wonderful shared memories We made some lovely pieces, just have to do a little sanding and finishing at home, and the instructor provided advice on that also.

Bella was fantastic! Her knowledge and enthusiasm was exceptional. I came out of the class feeling empowered and keen to make some real changes to make practical changes to my plant care. She fully explained consorts with the use of analogies and simple explanations. I’m very much looking forward to signing up for the next class she offers. 10/10

Dani Searles • Jul 2021

A great class for beginners! If you're currently 'winging it' this class will confirm techniques and add further info behind the science of growing and maintaining house plants. Bella was an excellent teacher with great knowledge of the industry.

Kate Sunners • Jul 2021

Really enjoyed this workshop. The space was great, the teacher was very clear, and working with alcohol inks was very fun! The only thing I'd change would be to space out the teaching to teach one technique, try it, then teach another technique and provide time to try, rather than teaching them all together for the first hour. I think this would provide more time to test and play with different techniques.

Tanya Boots • Jul 2021

A wonderful experience and a very educated teacher. This would be a really fun experience to do with a few friends.

Yvonne • Jul 2021

Very informative and the teacher was very conversant and knowledgeable with tea facts ,blends etc. Nothing was too much trouble and all teachers helpers etc made you feel very welcome. Excellent few hours spent felt more like friends getting together to share experiences than a teaching session .

Elizabeth Manwaring • Jul 2021

Awesome afternoon with a lovely and knowledgeable teacher. Bottomless tea ingredients to experiment with and a generous range to choose from.

Marty clearly explained and demonstrated the various techniques and answered our questions. The venue was easy to find and street parking outside.
Highly recommend.

Molly Turner • Jul 2021

Chelsea Nguyen • Jul 2021

My girlfriends and I booked this class in advance a few months ago for a birthday and just so happened we had all had a terrible week coming in. This class helped relieve our stress and also had a very kind and welcoming environment where we were comfortable to ask questions and laugh along with our teacher. The actual clay making itself was super fun and we were able to create some really interesting stuff even though we were complete beginners. I also appreciated the message about sustainability and taking care of our planet and respecting it. It was an exceptional class and our group are already considering our next one :)

Emilie was an amazing teacher to have while learning about print making. She taught the class with such enthusiasm! She clearly has a passion for print making. Emilie started by telling us a little about how print making words, and what to consider when picking an idea for our wood panel carving. She checked in with everyone and worked at the classes pace. There were many examples, demonstrations and feedback throughout the class. It was a great intro and/or refresher to the print making process. I had done lino and gelli plate prints before but still found value in learning this ancient style of print making. We got to keep our plate, and 3 prints on rice paper we created.

Joanne Tenner • Jul 2021

The introduction to woodblock printmaking with Emilie was great, she is a wonderful, encouraging and cheerful teacher. We covered a lot of ground in the workshop and I feel able to pursue woodblock printing further on my own now that I have an grasp of the basics.

This was such a fantastic class! Daisy was super knowledgeable and helpful to everyone, and managed to save at least one of my items from complete despair.
The venue was bright and wonderfully warm, and there was plenty of space for even a large class to work comfortably.
The materials provided were of excellent quality, and there were plenty of extra items we could experiment with to further personalise our pieces - Daisy showed us how to best use them too!
All things considered, this class is of excellent value - I've learned so many new things, played around in a supportive environment and will be getting glazed and fired pottery pieces that I made myself!

All the materials provided (with some lovely options to personalise your book as you go along). While it was a lot of continual work, the time allocated did allow you to walk away from the class with a finished product.
The teacher was great (very knowledgeable when asking questions) and allowed the group to work at their own pace, repeating steps with each person as they got to each stage.
Looking forward to trying bookbinding again at home now knowing the basic process.

Colin Santi • Jun 2021

Well firstly, it was a belated well thought of more than middle age birthday gift from my two children that attended with me. The atmosphere was warm & typically Fitroy, having lived there in the 70's. Which was nice as well. Anyway as with most things it was what you bring with you as an individual in character as well. Cait was a natural and lovely young girl of a friendly & helpful disposition . I didn't have a clue as to what to do? But found it quite meditative to sit and try to create a form in the manner of a ring. Everyone attending seemed happy & talkative Cait was helpful & attentive to all as I could tell. The only negative if you could call it so, was that the lighting was a little dull to scribe anything fine. But I did forget my reading glasses, and I am in my waining years I guess A very diverse and enjoyable birthday gift! Looking forward to the result of my lay efforts.

Tony Curtis • Jun 2021

Caity was very professional and easy-going, cracking the odd gag and explaining the lost wax casting process.
There were about 16 participants and Caity was able to spend time with everyone. No one missed out on her advice. I'd Brought along 2 sapphires to fit into a ring I wanted to make. For a first-timer, me, this did not phase Caity and she advised the best way to go about it. The venue is very spacious and well heated and plenty of room for students, with no crowding. It was very handy for me, a Fitzroy North resident, and plenty of parking. I thoroughly recommend this ring-making course. The resident pooch was very friendly, keeping an eye on everybody and getting plenty of tickles!
Really looking forward to receiving my ring!
Cheers,
Tony

Ive given it 4 stars as the venue was freezing cold and for a 10-1 workshop I think some snacks would have been nice. Would have happily paid a little extra for morning tea provisions.

Class was well worth it, Ian is super knowledgeable on bees, passionate and very generous with his information and time
We were provided with bee hotels and plenty of resources and info as well as getting to taste the honey in a couple of different ways
He split a hive in front of us, was amazing
Venue and organisation was really great

Such a fun and interesting afternoon! Our teacher was terrific, explained and modelled everything clearly. We all had ample time to apply the skills we were taught on to our own pieces that we brought it. Got help when we needed it and my famil and I left with some great pieces. Thank you!

What an awesome teacher! I learnt heaps of things I didn't know, even as a plant lover. I would highly recommend this course :)

Kathryn Wright • Jun 2021

Really great class - learnt so much about native bees and their value in our environment. Very knowledgeable instructor, explained things well - easy to understand. Showed us that even small changes in our own backyard can help the native bee population in our area.
Being able to see a hive being split was the best part! Tasting native honey and bee pollen capped off a great learning experience.

Excellent workshop - came away with two kokedamas - the time flew by but never felt rushed. The Plant whisperer - our terrific instructor - kept instructions very clear and simple - stepped through each process and demonstrated well. Never felt left behind and she came around and checked in with everyone very regularly making sure we felt comfortable with what we were doing. She gave terrific and positive feedback at all stages. The workshop venue is light, bright and airy - all participants were well spaced out and Covid safety was clearly practised. An excellent way to spend a few hours and have some very tangible evidence of what we achieved.

The venue was centrally located but wasn’t the cleanest place, didn’t even have soap in the bathroom.

Julio Salcedo • Jun 2021

I think the structure of the course could be improved by haveing an introductoy part (ppt), showing a scheme about a typical brewing process. Then, it would be easier to connect what and why is being done.

This was a great class! We had so much fun! Lottie made the class really inclusive and made us feel like we could do anything. She broke the steps down and supported us through it the entire time. You could tell that Lottie loved print making and was incredibly experienced in it. This class made me want to buy my own equipment and continue this as a hobby. Thanks Lottie!

Chet (?) Was our teacher and he was very friendly and relaxed. The workshop itself was a bright open space that was well seasoned.
The activity was fun and realtively simple. Great soundtrack playing on the background which added to the vibe.
The only constructive comment is that it wasn't a full 2 hours workshop so perhaps modify that.
Loved it!

Absolutely recommend, lovely space as well

Elizabeth Hurtt • Jun 2021

Daisy was a great teacher – clear and concise in her instructions; positive, encouraging, warm and friendly. What more could one ask?
We all got to take away the materials we needed to continue repairing our broken pottery. I don't think I'll ever throw away broken china again!

Margaret Warren • Jun 2021

Fantastic introduction to clay building. Daisy is a very knowledgeable and supportive workshop facilitator! High recommended :)

Vanessa Gavens • Jun 2021

Daisy is a really good teacher- clear instructions, great demonstrator, and very attentive and manages to keep an eye on what everyone is doing and offers help or praise wherever needed. The materials and space were excellent and fit for purpose.
However I would not be choosing this method to repair anything precious as the results can be quite crude and lumpy. Not the same result as you would gain if you studied the original Japanese style and used those tools and materials.
This workshop covered as much as was possible in a two hour period, with this number of people, which I doubt would be the case using traditional Japanese technique.
I thought it was reasonable value for money.

Emma Burke • Jun 2021

Good starting point to learn about Mosaics. Alyson has a great approach to the art and conveys practical and helpful knowledge to become your own expert!

Beth Keehn • Jun 2021

I loved this class. First, we had a great teacher in Sheri - very knowledgeable yet relaxed and helpful. Second, it was a great group of students who were friendly and cooperative. A great way to spend a creative couple of hours. Third, I did not expect to walk away with several final pieces on the same day. That was a huge bonus. Absolutely loved it. Thanks Sheri and team.

Alasia Noakes • Jun 2021

Venue was suited to workshop. Teacher was great. Really enjoyed myself and wish it was longer with a lunch break of course

Grace Corcoran • Jun 2021

He is kind and patient. He is knowledgeable and leading us to understanding the complicated welding easily. I enjoy it znd hope there is a follow-up class soon.

Clive Mackay • Jun 2021

Hi
Darryl was great in presenting information and ideas limiting it to basic terminology with no Jargon terms, meaning anyone could understand.
Getting around the class seeing how everything is going, would be tough, but he seemed to be there when things didn’t look right, to correct as required. This workshop was relaxed as nothing seemed pressured and the whole group was focused and quiet.
This was great for first time welders class giving oversight of; welding machine, tools and techniques.
There was even time for a little creativity using off cuts to create your own interpretive sculpture.
Good to see most keen to come to a more advanced class to learn more.
Great indicator for a great Teacher.
Thanks Darryl

Kate Clark • Jun 2021

I had a lovely time today - thank you. Alyson kept everything simple and easy to follow. There was a broad range of tiles to use and everything is available at Bunnings ;-)

Libby • Jun 2021

The venue was great, esp with coffee shop. I would have liked to have a second session so we could finish the baskets. The teacher was good, materials supplied were plentiful. Perhaps a diagram of how to finish the basket would have been a good idea, just to remind us when we get there.

Teacher was fun, very easy to understand, explained origami steps clearly .Venue was fantastic,roomy,artistic and inspiring. Loved the Japanese music background adding to our Japanese origami making. Paper provided, and lots of different sizes, colours and textures (washi). Great value for money, wish it was 2 hrs! Learnt how to make the traditional crane, in different ways, and sizes! Almost made the earrings. But still need to practice getting smaller. Then we can add the earring pieces then lacquer finally.
All in all very enjoyable. Thank you Michael. Surely be back for another class.

I enjoyed the class although there are some things that would definitely make it better. There needed to be an example of what we were making so we could see what it was supposed to look like. The teacher was not clear in her instructions at the beginning and it was difficult to get started. As no one will be finishing the basket on the day an information sheet with details on how to complete the basket would be helpful to take home.
Didn’t really feel it was value for money.

Caity was very friendly and welcoming into the studio and gave us all a concise run down on how to use the tools laid out for us. She was there to give tips and tricks to achieve our rings.
The space was open and inviting.
I had a lot of fun at this workshop getting fiddly with wax and tools and can’t wait to see the silver ring that Caity finishes for us!

Ryan Lunt • May 2021

The class was an excellent introduction to safety and plenty of practise. I left being much less afraid of the idea of welding and only wish there was additional classes that would be able to beyond the introduction so I can receive additional knowledge and experience. I really enjoyed my time in the class with a fantastic and encouraging teacher

Thanks for a great night. This was a cool way to get creative as well as meet new people. The skills of the artists were evident and their friendly approach to the class made it a really enjoyable experience. The venue was fine but parking was a real problem; especially as most participants were women, walking a long way to my car in the dark was a bit daunting. I had a voucher but I am already looking for new creative experiences to attend with ClassBento!

Matilda Darvall • May 2021

I enjoyed this session. It was less guided than I expected, but maybe that was because of the large class size? Anyway, it was a new and interesting experience and I’d recommend it :)

Joanne Andrews • May 2021

Booked this in as something I've always been interested in but didn't want to do a full course. Great introduction, feel like I could start this as a hobby without further courses. Good vibe throughout, ideas and examples were given, teacher never "took over" on your piece allowing learning, experimenting and ideas to flow. Fully recommend for anyone interested or keen on silver ring work. Would go again.

The only thing that could have made the class better was being able to
keep the punch needle tool so we could finish our projects at home,
for the price of the class I would have thought we'd get
to keep the tool. But the selection of wools provided to use was great,
the teacher was lovely and took the time needed with each student.

Stacey Martin • May 2021

What was the teacher like? - very friendly but a little quiet for someone teaching, more explanation could have been had
How was the venue? - great, good location lots of parking and funky outlay
If materials were provided, did you like them? - I thought in the notes it said we keep the punch needle and tools however were asked to leave them.
Was the class good value for money? - I didnt think so for *$85 purely for a half metre of hessian and the frame and a $2 ball of yarn. The lesson wasn't very long but understand venue hire and wages ect - I think $65-70 would be fair if you dont keep the tools
What did you do / learn? that punch needling was alot easier than I thought :)
Shote was great though very lovely and love her work

Kirsten Way • May 2021

It was great fun, and I really looking forward to seeing the final result :) Roxanne was lovely, supportive, and very knowledgeable.

Grace Cowden • May 2021

I think if you’re paying $100 per person that someone could have the materials cut and ready to use.
Would have also been nice to have made something smaller so we could take a finished piece home.
Maybe too many people in the class as most people were lost or how to do it and just sitting there stuck for most the class.
Bit disappointed in it. Wouldn’t come here again.

Fran Nicholson • May 2021

The materials provided were great, there was plenty of clay for use.

The teacher was great, really knowledgeable and happy to share her experience.

I had to leave at 2pm to pick up my kids, but stayed a little later as the class ran over, but had to leave before it was completed.

, sheree provided easy to understand instructions. Overall I really enjoyed the workshop and it was easy to follow. Sheree was able to provide assist and advice when required. Couldn’t fault it

Christine Martin • May 2021

All good. Enjoyed. Would have liked a little more teacher hands on. We were allowed to choose moulds without any experience of sizes. Mine too small. My friends too small. Not a real issue though. We had fun. Thanks Christine

Inspiring, empowering, welcoming, safe, educational, mind-opening, informative, and confrontational in a great way. Georgia creates a warm and comfortable space and invites you to join a class that extends your understanding, opens your mind, teaches you to listen to your peers and helps you develop and learn in ways you may have never even thought about. Absolutely loved this class & recommend to everyone!

Vanessa was lovely- she was professional but funny and very knowledgeable. The class was relaxing, I enjoyed having not too much structure about what to create. The materials were silky smooth! A bit more time would be nice, but on the while this was really fun. Thank you

Angel Batterham • May 2021

Great teacher, loved the materials, great value, really relaxed and perfect. Informational without feeling like school.

Ally Fulton • May 2021

A really informative and well put together class. Being able to see the native bee hive splitting in person was really interesting. Would definitely recommend this class for anyone interested in encouraging native bees to your garden.

Mark Winder • May 2021

The class was informative and Sheri was very helpful. I enjoyed experimenting with the resin. BUT it was very disappointing that the clear resin ran out half way through the workshop. I really do not understand how a resin workshop runs out of clear resin. We were told the class used more than normal but we definitely did not have full bottles to start with and there are no excuses, as there should be enough for all - it really wasn't good enough, I didn't get to use any which limited my creativity. Besides that incident - it was fun.

Jason Ang • May 2021

Teacher was friendly and knowledgeable, appreciate that we got stuck straight into the practical as the theory can be quite boring especially on a sunday.

Deborah Donehue • May 2021

I love coming to workshop classes and Liana was beautiful, attentive and was so open with her knowledge would definitely recommend this class

Stephen Green • May 2021

The Intro to Welding was an excellent class. The teacher was very friendly, helpful, gave lots of tips and info, plus a whole load of stories from working as a welder.
There was plenty of hands on time, with lots of information; from safety, to tips on improving, and what to look for if you want to buy your own equipment.
If you love making things, and are thinking about metal-work, take this class! Its an excellent intro. 100% recommended.

Liana, the teacher, was well organised for the session and the venue suited the activity well.
We each had plenty of room to work and we were well supplied with tools and materials. We were also given clear explanations about how to use them and shown examples of what could be achieved with Linocuts. Liana was more than happy to share extra information with us. I thought it was very useful to see the printmaking process and everyone achieved great results.

David Evans • May 2021

I received this native bee-keeping course as a birthday gift and it was fantastic! Ian was an enthusiastic presenter who educated us about native beekeeping and provided a hands on demonstration for splitting hives. His passion was evident! While he informed us of services available via his business, he was not pushy. But rather, he was more interested in conservation and how we could contribute to increasing the native bee population. We even received a goody bag for a home-made beehive. I would 100% recommend this class.

Lianna was a great lino print teacher! The class was well structured as we had enough time to complete our final prints without rushing. We had the right tools for our needs and Lianna was very clear with her instructions and examples.

The workshop space was also great, with plenty of room as well as good heating. I would highly recommend workshops here!

Mary Brown • May 2021

Loved the tables heaving under paper treasure of vintage books and magazines, very easy going but creatively inspiring presenters. Shame about the switch to Friday evening Saturday arvo is a better fit for me for an art workshop. Personally also would prefer smaller group, higher price for better learning experience - otherwise loved it!

Marina Williams • May 2021

The class was fun and provided you opportunities to really be creative and the teacher was very helpful. She taught us 3 ways to hand build clay and we all get to create 3 pieces if we want to and paint/choose color for the glaze. I think the time is enough to make 3 pieces. Overall, this class is recommended.

Kerrie Hodgson • May 2021

Giselle Kilvert • May 2021

This was a good overview for a beginner that did not consider herself a green thumb. The instructor was very enthusiastic, energetic, encouraging and knowledgeable. I left feeling reasonably confident and excited to put my new knowledge into practice. It was nice to receive a variety of cuttings to take home for this purpose. The space was well suited and it was nice to see samples of the other skills/crafts available to learn at the venue.

Amanda McQuitty • May 2021

Fantastic information, very interesting, very helpful, good knowledges about plant propagation and the recipes. Great theory. I was expecting that we will learn to cut plants and plant in pot. Bella is a bubbly happy and enjoy the speeech. It was great and appreciated her shared information with us.

Sheila Millar • May 2021

Lovely teacher that taught at a good, easy pace. Instructions were simple and easy to follow, and I found the instructions easy to follow. Venue was a nice space. Good length overall too, and didn’t throw too much at you.

Perhaps some suggestions on exercises to practice at home would be a good idea.

Sheila Millar • May 2021

Very enjoyable and easy going and provided essential basics which is so valuable. Enjoyed the demos and feedback. Felt very relaxed and supported.

I will recommend this class to all my friends. It was most enjoyable and relaxing

Anneke Crouse • May 2021

We really enjoyed this class. Daisy is a great teacher. She explains various beginner techniques at the start of the class, and then takes the time to walk around the class to provide everyone with help where required. We had a lot of fun, and by the end everyone left the class having made something truly unique.

Lois Stefanovich • May 2021

Our teacher was very pleasant and helpful. The class was very enjoyable although I thought it a little expensive.

Jennifer Maclaughlan • May 2021

This class was so great! Our teacher was so genuine, relaxed and patient (not like some other pottery classes I’ve done where they seem like they’re on autopilot). We also made three items, which was heaps! Lots to do over the time we had, but it was also very laid back and we could go at our own pace. I would definitely recommended this class to anyone that wants to try some pottery :)

Johanne Gow • May 2021

We began the class not knowing a thing about sourdough bread and left after two hours armed with information, practical knowledge, skills we had practised, dough and bread and above all confidence to give it a go! Thanks to Leah for your calm, engaging, encouraging presentation style. We enjoyed our first sourdough bread for breakfast this morning.

Had a rewarding time learning how to make a belt which is better than a belt you would buy in the shop. It was a small group class and our teacher was very good in explaining the various techniques required in simple terms on what needed to be done and by when. I will be using my new skills to Making some friends and family a belt for their next birthday.
My experience was very rewarding and I would definitely recommend the class.

Love learning new craft and this one was definitely a fun class - mixing colours and creating something cute in a short amount of time. Substitute teacher was friendly and helpful but didn't have full knowledge of the products we were using and was unable to answer all of our questions. Also it was a bit dissapointing that not everyone got to do the shape of coaster they wanted to.

We were then encouraged to create away with assistance or guidance given if required. Our group was mainly made up of newbies and we all had smiles on our faces during the entire process and we were proud of our newly decorated serving/cheese boards. The venue was a great space and parking wad easy to find on this Sunday morning. I am keen to try this process again. Highly recommend.

Zoey Saunders • Apr 2021

The instructor, Leah, was very lovely, and extremely knowledgeable when it comes to bread. She went around the room to ask our experiences with bread making and when she found out some of the attendees had made it before but had specific problems, or couldn't get the shape they wanted, she offered specific tips on what the cause could be and did a mini demo on other shapes we could try for those who have made bread before .

As a complete beginner who has never made bread, her instructions were easy to follow, and I ended up with so much incredible bread at the end of the night, as well as a starter to continue making bread at home.

Excellent class, 100% recommend

Ellia McComb • Apr 2021

Clearly such a knowledgeable, down to earth person! Offered practical tips that aligned well with my needs as an absolutely horrendous, novice gardener but also quality, higher up knowledge for my more advanced indoor-plant enthusiast friend.
She was happy to verge a little off tract ad questions arised and it was cool to know that she is very welcoming to messages about plant queries 10/10 would Prosecco and propagate again

Jill Paxton • Apr 2021

Leah was very welcoming and friendly. She spoke passionately about her sourdough and spread her passion to us. Her instructions were clear and comprehensive and it was fun to follow her. The take home guide was clearly written and easy to follow. It reinforced her class work. I look forward to doing the advanced class when I’m confident with the basic procedure. Thank you Leah for an amazing evening!

Jess was amazing! Full of knowledge, passion and pure love which really showed during her class. It was a really beautiful space to come together and create. The minute you walk in there’s a warmth to the room, friendly, artistic vibes that instantly lift you and carry you through out your time. Impossible to leave unhappy! Looking forward to doing some more of jess’ workshops :)

Tony High • Apr 2021

Hi.
Elisa was fabulous. She presented in a very natural way, made everyone feel really comfortable, was VERY knowledgeable and also fun.
Room was good, set up great.
I liked how we paired up and had a discussion at the end. Very valuable but also made it more “real”.
Just a shame Elisa seems to be so booked up as would love a 1:1 with her, in order to link a tantric massage workshop I did in UK though I’m a male so a bit of a “weird” link but in essence same same.
Thanks again. I’m sure I’ll be back for another workshop.
Cheers, Tony

Jason Watson • Apr 2021

Elisa is an excellent trainer, and made the workshop really fun and informative. Highly recommend

Jacob Joseph • Apr 2021

The class was great! So much clear information about everything a complete beginner needs to know to be able to go ahead and start doing this on our own. Really happy with the pace and freedom to experiment in the class, would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to give resin paint a go. Cant wait to pick up my finished product!

Lynton Dickens • Apr 2021

Darryl was engaging and knowledgeable. His encouraging style and attention worked very well. The small class size meaning we had a welder each also made a huge difference

Alice Ng • Apr 2021

Thank you for the awesome class! Daisy was great at making sure she attended to everyone where help was needed. The clay used was easy to work with and had a nice look to it. I found the class to be nice and relaxing where you get to work on whatever your heart desires and it was inspiring to see what others came up with as well. Definitely recommended for those who are curious and just starting out.

Helen Benham • Apr 2021

Had a great time, learnt a lot from Darryl who was very helpful. Safety was covered fully. Looking forward to a course for the next level.

Mike Litton • Apr 2021

Location was perfect with easy parking on weekends. Sheri the teacher was excellent too. She was clear on instructions. The available tools and pigment colours were great.

Claire Fischer • Apr 2021

I got a lot out of the class today. Daisy was a very clear communicator and very approachable. I liked the introduction to the craft and felt that the instructions were very clear. I felt like Daisy was able to give me all the help I needed which I imagine she also did with all the other class participants. Not an easy feat. I was able to mend and improve two very precious pieces and I felt a deep satisfaction to leave with something that had been broken and was now fixed and usable again. For that alone the price of the workshop was worth it.

Ranit Ram • Apr 2021

Great introductory course into some basic MIG welding - ideal for someone without with any prior welding experience.

Whilst hand building with clay wasn't something that came naturally (or at all) to me, Daisy was extremely helpful and I ended up making several little pieces that im rather happy with. I wanted to try something new and outside my comfort zone and I definitely don't regret it. Thank you Daisy.

What a shame this wasn't the first class I took with this group. Di was really the most fantastic, wonderful teacher. For a non art student like me to get shown the importance of colour mixing and various techniques to use gave me the best chance of walking away with a piece of art work I was actually happy to say I had done.
It is sad that 5 stars is the most I can give for this class. I highly recommend this great class and fabulous teacher!

Rose Shakerian • Apr 2021

Liyat Haile • Apr 2021

Jo was excellent at communicating and teaching the techniques used in calligraphy writing.
The venue was good. Only feedback on the setup is that I would have preferred to sit front on towards the board to avoid one side neck turn to see Jo’s examples.
All the materials provided are very useful. The class was good value for money. I loved learning and writing calligraphy with nib and ink for the first time in my life.

The teacher was well prepared and obviously knew a lot about paper making. We worked in pairs and my partner was very pleasant and keen to participate so we were able to produce a number of pieces of paper. Each of the pages has a unique appearance due to the inclusion of florals & coloured paper shreds.

Makoto Hosoya • Apr 2021

It was a great hands-on introduction to welding. I always wanted to do welding for some repair jobs around and I also knew a welding machine became very affordable these days BUT I was clueless about how to start with it. Thanks to this workshop, I've got some basic idea of it and I can go on to practice and experiment by myself now.
Thank you very much Darryl. And, I'll definitely attend a follow up workshop if you are organising one in future.

Caitlin Preston • Apr 2021

Highly recommended.

Michael Zrobok • Apr 2021

I thought both of the teachers brought good knowledge and personality to the room. The supplies were more than adequate, guidance was clear on how to use them, & enough good examples of what the end product can look like I felt were all really instrumental in allowing us the freedom and confidence to explore the medium. I felt that the time-limit was appropriate for an intro class & I look forward to the chance to learn more about this topic on a later date.

Daryl is a superb teacher. It a somewhat intimidating thing being a office worker and stepping into a welding environment. Daryl brilliantly handled it, so much so that within ten mins we were on the tools and building confidence rapidly. I’d definitely do it again, and if an intermediate session is set up I’ll sign up for sure

Rosy Blyther • Apr 2021

Really enjoyed my brush lettering class! Our teacher was very good and helped explain things in an easy to understand way. I appreciate the books and pens we received as a takeaway. Facilities are fairly basic and could maybe do with some more refreshments and maybe some snacks.

Great intro to welding our teacher (Darryl) was both knowledgeable and patience. Equipment was of good quality and we had time to discuss the different types and usage.

Native Bee-keeping 101 was such an enjoyable and informative class and fantastic value for money. The venue is lovely and class numbers are kept reasonable.

If you have any interest at all in native bee-keeping do yourself a favour and attend this workshop.

Great date, mother/daughter, father/son, friend night out IDEA! Super chill and very informative session led by a passionate guy who loves doing what he does, and does well! Very impressed with my terrarium and will definitely be back to do more workshops! Could not recommend more!

George Prountzos • Apr 2021

I found it was value for money as I just wanted an orientation to welding.
Would have liked to try stick welding just to compare.
The trainer was very knowledgeable but I felt he was not prepared in his delivery.
The amenedties were below the standard I expected and felt unprofessional.
Unfortunately, the work bench was not secured to the wall so we and the team next to us had to deal with the workspace wobbling while we tried to weld in a straight line. I found the mask would react to the welding next door as they were so close.
The equipment and materials were acceptable for beginners.
The trainer was helpful during the practice sessions.

Dorje Lama • Apr 2021

Teacher didn't respond to my request for a reschedule - on either of the listed comms channels. Then wouldn't refund my money after finally responding on the night of Incredibly poor behaviour. I also tried to provide feedback to CB at the time - but no joy there either. Put me off ever using class Bento again.

Teacher's response

Hi Sue, I’m so sorry you weren’t able to attend the Terrarium class.

Unfortunately, Work-Shop has a 3 day cancellation policy, which means credits/refunds are not offered during this lead up time to your class. The cancellation policy is included in the terms and conditions of your ticket purchase. The policy is at the request of our teachers who otherwise are out of pocket if we didn’t have this in place.

I'm very sorry you didn’t receive a response to your transfer request. I did send this info to you but you must not have received it?

I've emailed you directly as well so please don't hesitate to reach out there if you have any questions.

We attended the kokedama class as a birthday present and it was a wonderful experience. The process was well-explained, along with a lot of advice on technique, care, and suggestions on how to decorate with the kokedama once we brought them home. We went home with four kokedama and an eagerness to learn more — would definitely recommend the class to others!

The teacher was so lovely and very helpful with showing us options for mixing the flavour profiles. I wish that we were able to take a bit more of our tea mix home but I thoroughly enjoyed getting to make it and sample the many different tea bases we had to choose from.

Doug Cardew • Apr 2021

Last week I did a quick search on welding courses and this one popped up with one spot left - I figured all I needed right now was the 3 hrs intro and $110 is the right price. Was the perfect intro course and I got just what I needed right now. Darryl was great at getting us right into it and obviously loves what he does. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a little taste of welding without much effort.
Many thanks
Doug

Nicole • Apr 2021

The teacher was absolutely lovely and super knowledgeable about flavours and teas! Class was organised and very informative.

Julianne Holbeck • Apr 2021

The teacher seemed overly nervous and shaky but also really sweet and kind. I wondered if she acted more confident in her answers and was a little louder then maybe i would've heard her better.

I also would of loved a handout to take home to remind me of the water temperatures for different tea's, recommendations on what blends would compliment each other, and the teas origin stories.

I understand with covid restrictions the teachers were the only one's able to bring our ingredients and water over, but I think it might be useful if each table had a small jar of each item so we could serve ourselves without having to wait for two people to cater to 10-15 participants; also this might allow us to experient on our own without feeling like we're annoying the teachers when they're in the middle of a conversation about tea blends.

aside from that i enjoyed the depth of knowledge and passion the teachers had, the ingredients and set up of the room in general. i felt covid restrictions were taken seriously and our care was taken into account. also, more biscuits with the tea would be amazing. maybe some mini cakes too haha.

David McCarthy • Apr 2021

This was a very useful class to give me the basics of gasless welding. From essentially zero practical knowledge I am now confident enough to wield a welder and practice at home to improve my skills. Daryl was a cheerful and informative teacher with a wealth of knowledge that he was very willing to impart. I'd recommend this course to anyone who wishes to learn the rudiments of the craft.

Tom Pom • Apr 2021

Plenty of advice and time on the welder. Reccomended.

Justine Malone • Apr 2021

A very welcoming venue with a fun Fitzroy vibe to it. Daisy was really great to simply and quickly explain some tips and tricks about the hand clay techniques and was very much available throughout the class for feedback, help and questions. Really great class, so happy I did it!

Gary Sheppard • Apr 2021

Thoroughly recommended!
The instructor Daryl was both knowledgeable and personable.
He took the fear and unknown out of welding by giving a great basic introduction to the art.
It's all very well to look at welding videos on youtube but there's no substitute for having someone explain the basics in person and guide you though your initial welds.
I now am confident that I can purchase a small welder and pursue welding for my modest needs.
Whereas I would never have taken that step without this class.
Thankyou!

Chris Hickey • Apr 2021

The teacher Darryl, was very experienced and pitched all his information for the correct group. We were all new to welding so was explained at a basic level. Explained, demonstrated and then progressively practised

Materials were provided which was great. All safety gear as well.

The venue used was a little tight for the ten students in the class. A larger work area would be better.

Overall a great day.

Megan Shipman • Apr 2021

Teacher was great. Venue had lots of street parking which was nice. The 2hrs went by very quickly and had alot of fun.

This was a lot of fun. Haylee was friendly and helpful, providing clear instructions on how to make your Kokedamas. Working with the moss was really enjoyable and it was really satisfying coming away with 2 Kokedamas that I had made myself.

Sandra Hebbert • Apr 2021

A great way to spend a few hours creatively. Daisy was a great teacher. Very patient and helpful

Alitta Clarke • Apr 2021

I had an amazing day with Sheree learning about Statement Polymerclay Earrings! Sheree was so upbeat, funny and engaging breaking down the steps for her famous earrings. The colours and the cutters were in such huge numbers it was almost overwhelming. I loved the venue- very creative - and being surrounded by creative people was re- energising. The whole day was wonderful. I'd definitely recommend it starting your polymerclay journey x

Emmanuel Flores • Apr 2021

The class was really interesting and the instructor was extremely helpful and informative. We had an issue with one of the welders at the beginning of the class but he kept his composure and continued with the class. Well worth the money with plenty of practical work. Can’t wait for their new ‘upcoming welding classes.

Bethan Gee • Apr 2021

Teacher was ok but I felt the course covered a few topics in very little depth. The teacher should’ve picked three topics and covered those in depth. It felt like the teacher was winging it and just went through whatever came to mind rather than having a structure for the session.
I felt the breathing and arm exercises were completely pointless.
As a learning and development specialist it felt like the teacher knew the subject matter but had little experience in facilitation.

Roby S • Apr 2021

Really enjoyed this session feel more energy in my body, Learn how to live with confidence and enjoy the every moment of life.

Harmony Sanderson • Apr 2021

Teacher was super lovely and helpful, and overall a fun class. The only reason it wasn’t 5/5 for me was that I was so rushed, 2 hours is just not enough time to make 3 pieces and paint them. I only had time for two pieces and was still rushing the paint, which resulted in a paint job I don’t like unfortunately :-( Another hour would have been perfect and enjoyable. I do recommend the class, perhaps I’m a slow poke.

Hannah Miflin • Mar 2021

Daisy was so lovely and patient. She had loads of time for my many many questions and was hands on showing me how to do specific skills with the clay. The class size is small so there was lots of opportunities for 1:1. Clay and all tools were provided, and she’s even going to fire, glaze, and fire three of the pieces I made in class. I’ve been playing with clay for a little while at home but it was great to cement a few hand building skills. Would defo recommend!

Jennifer Marx • Mar 2021

Excellent for someone new to clay and resin. Learnt a lot and was able to consolidate some things. Venue was conducive to the environment and I thought the grazing platter was good, I liked being able to nibble on it irking they during the day. I sat near the front so the camera suffice but I can see how if you were at the back of the room it would have been difficult to watch the demos. Sheree and kissy were great!

Vanessa was very friendly and accommodating for all of us arriving at various times because of a very wet night and difficult parking. Material provided was of great quality that Vanessa went to the trouble to secure in difficult times of supply. We learnt the art of pinching to form the clay rather than making coils or throwing clay on a wheel. Vanessa was happy for us to make our own creations if we wished. Looking forward to seeing the finished product after they are fired. I thought of many other things I could make so may take another class.

Wonderful teacher. The workshop was great. Exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this class. Suitable for all skill levels.

Jennifer Martin • Mar 2021

Daisy is a great teacher, very clear instructions & so helpful. I thought the class was wonderful & loved my Kintsugi teacup!

Jules Vleugel • Mar 2021

Daisy was an awesome teacher! Such a fun, creative space to explore. Class size was perfect. All the tools we needed. Lots of one to one help when we needed it too. Loved the tunes and the overall vibe. A very encouraging workshop for beginners!

Elizabeth • Mar 2021

Had a good evening. Vanessa was great at explaining what to do and showing everyone examples. We were able to make lots of items.

Cally Castell • Mar 2021

A really enjoyable and informative class! Beautiful big light filled venue which made it easy to spread out and see all your work. Knowledgeable and encouraging teacher. I liked how a variety of different techniques were demonstrated, and then we were free to be creative and explore which techniques we wanted to make our own pieces, rather than just being shown one how to make one particular thing and then everyone in the class doing the same. Overall lots was learned, great value and would love to come again.

Louise Bougeois • Mar 2021

Really really great fun - was nervous going into it as have no artistic skill but ended up really enjoying myself and the teacher is always more than willing to help!

Emilie was a great teacher. She was kind and very patient to us. It was a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. She taught us step by step plus some support individually.
I would like to take another crochet class again. Please make some follow-up class
I definitely will take it! Thank you!

Such a fun class! Claire was super friendly and has a wealth of experience that she was able to share with us - from exercises to get our creative juices flowing, to tips on finding inspiration. We had a playlist going in the background throughout the workshop which was great in helping inspire our journalling and we had so many great materials to work with and take home. Highly recommend.

Adorable doggos were present + we got pretty flower domes that we could individualise to take home. Bella was really friendly and gave good tips on how to arrange our flowers + where we could get supplies to make them at home ourselves.

Received this voucher as a Christmas gift - love it! A great way to spend an afternoon, and a different type of activity to do.
Nice open space as a venue. Good handout and all the tools required.
Roxanna wandered around and gave instruction and encouragement as required.
Can’t wait to get our silver rings back in a few weeks and to see how they turned out!

Nick Shortt • Mar 2021

Very enjoyable class. Instruction sheet was good. Lovely space in which the tome flashed by.
Could have some more fine tools available for more intricate work.
Overall an fun and interesting afternoon. Looking forward to the final result.

Damian Carden • Mar 2021

Cheese making was not as difficult as I thought. Good pace of class. Venue was funky but maybe not ideal for cheese making. Would have been good to be able to see stove and ricotta forming. All set now with purchasing my kit to make from home

Suzie Fry • Mar 2021

A good intro to making soft cheeses. The class was a little chaotic, I’m not sure I am really confident to finish off my cheeses at home. The teacher spent more time trying to convince me on the benefits of making cheese than on teaching the specifics of techniques. I’ve come to the class because I’m already convinced so more focus on the actual steps in the making, referring to notes so we can write things down and review would increase my confidence in making use to the knowledge outside of class.

Shakira Branch • Mar 2021

Thank you so much for such a wonderful class. I purchased this for a graduation present for my friend & I to do together, and it was so nice to get creative and switch off for the night.

And thank you to Liana for teaching us such great watercolour skills - you are an excellent teacher

Haylee the teacher was confident, knowledgeable and engaging, including every one in the activities. No one was nervous about asking a question, and everyone walked away with a beautiful terrarium and the knowledge of how to do this again.

Tanya McGuckian • Mar 2021

The terrarium workshop was a fantastic. The choice of plants and glass vessel were beautiful. I loved learning about its origin and the simplicity of the method. Haylee was encouraging and so knowledgeable that I felt comfortable asking questions.
I left feeling like I knew I could keep these little guys alive.

Sarah Alves • Mar 2021

Thank you so much Rozanna! Absolutely loved taking part in your class. Not only did you teach me about the intricacies of ring making, but also the importance of breathing and taking time out for myself. I will definitely be back!

Tania Haack • Mar 2021

Absolutely the most engaging, creative and supportive workshop I’ve been to thus far. Super fun and breezy, money well spent

P.s text message reminders about upcoming workshops would be super helpful for people whom can’t stay on top of their emails (like me)

Rushika Kumar • Mar 2021

Helen was just so amazing and calming. I really appreciated the learning atmosphere she created as well as the encouragement she constantly fed us with Will definitely be coming back for more xx

Ru Chung • Mar 2021

Excellent! Well paced, useful, good knowledge. A morning of hands-on fun! Would highly recommend

Sue • Mar 2021

Thoroughly enjoyed the class. The information was delivered clear & the process in cheese making shown to be relatively easy if you follow the formula & method . Very good value for the information given. Great products sold afterwards that were very affordable with easy to follow instructions. Love that I can follow the company online for further videos if needed when making the cheese I select .

The teacher honed in on example techniques while we painted pictures of our own. The practices were well considered and delivered beautifully.

Eden Cornish • Mar 2021

Liana was great at showing and explaining how to use water colours.
Great space and really relaxed space to get creative.
Absolutely loved it and will definitely be going back.
Thank you

Nathalie Wright • Mar 2021

The teacher was very knowledgeable and her co helper was entertaining and had some really great advice and suggestions.

There were samples of delicious cheese to try and a glass of wine was on offer too.

I would recommend this class to give you an insight into yogurt and cheese making.

I loved this class. The venue was great - quirky and comfortable, the class size was perfect and gave opportunity to interact but also have one on one attention. Claire made it fun, accessible and interesting and I came away with lots of ideas for drawings and journaling.

Elise Parker • Mar 2021

I took my mum and two friends and we all had a brilliant time. The teachers were so knowledgeable and engaging, and very funny. We loved the opportunity to try the cheeses, and to see the merchandise up close and speak to the teachers afterwards.
Would definitely recommend this class to anyone looking for a fun night out or to feel inspired to learn a new skill (or just drink wine, learn some things and eat some cheese).

Harmony Sanderson • Mar 2021

4 ClassBento workshops attended • 4 reviews

This is a cheese spectating class. Not interactive at all, no “making” involved except for the teacher. This is basically a really long demonstration. Really not sure why watching cheese being made for 2 hours with a tiny sampling of two types of cheese and quince paste cost $65 pp. Pretty disappointing.

Karen Le • Mar 2021

Aiden was so laid back, cool and knowledgeable. I had so much fun and learned alot. Highly recommend!

Your Caxton • Mar 2021

Really enjoyed Claire Ritchie’s class, a fantastic range of activities to unlock our creative side!

Claire was a fabulous facilitator. Great venue and cool soundtrack for inspiration. Two hours flew by and I did a few more pages when I got home from workshop. I will make this style of journalling part of my regular creative and mindfulness practice. Loved this workshop! Thanks Claire.

Russell Henderson • Mar 2021

The class covered all the basic hand building techniques and Daisy was great at helping us utilise those techniques to realise our ideas to bring them into reality (of sorts!). While hours more practice would improve my end product - at least I now have Mother day's sorted gift wise!

Shauna Carlon • Mar 2021

Daisy is very a kind, creative and knowledgeable teacher, it was a really fun class!

Sophie Rak • Mar 2021

Venue was great, Daisy shared her knowledge beautifully and was very attentive, making sure we all had help when needed.

George Athanasakos • Mar 2021

I thoroughly enjoyed the class and it gave me exactly what I needed at this time in my journey. More than I could have imagined. As a single attending the class I wish I had partnered with someone of the opposite sex from the beginning. I definitely would have gotten more from it. As simple as they were the activities properly allowed me to open up and connect with a complete stranger in a beautiful way.

Gerry Mellas • Mar 2021

A good and interesting starting base in learning tantric practices and embedding them into daily life

Elaine Krassas • Mar 2021

very interesting class. Learned a lot of interesting information and techniques about sourdough. there was a lot more to it than i was expecting

Christina Nguyen • Mar 2021

The teacher was great and had lots of handy tips for plant care. I liked the funky open space venue. We made two kokedamas so it was definitely good value for money.

Cora Devonish • Feb 2021

Amazing workshop! Super happy with the final product. Great explanations and demonstration, as well as general info and insights to plants. Really fun, good vibes, music and drinks.

Kirby Delaney • Feb 2021

Yes it was good. Teacher was lovely. Wish it went a bit longer and was a tad more in cost but to cover more. Venue was nice just hard to find.

Great teacher, explained the process very well and provided ideas an assistance. Everyone left with 2 or more pieces. The amount of materials was generous, easily make 3 decent sized pieces. The venue was perfect and Sasha the resident dog was a delight can’t wait to see my glazed and fired pieces

Abigail Watts • Feb 2021

I had such a wonderful time! Daisy was a fabulous teacher and showed us different ways to manipulate the clay before we were able to make to make what ever we wanted. I can’t think of a better way to spend a morning!

Sarah Steel • Feb 2021

The class is great fun and goes so fast

Anne Varnes • Feb 2021

The teacher was very friendly, there were plenty of materials. Overall, a very enjoyable experience.

Melissa Piddington • Feb 2021

The teacher was so nice and friendly and helpful. Loved the aesthetic of the whole place and was overall a great lesson :)
Don’t think I would change anything about the class

Laura Wells • Feb 2021

The teacher was very experienced and good at explaining the skills to make the pottery and how to use our hands to shape it the way we wanted it to go. All of the materials were provided and when my first piece didn’t work out I was provided with some fresh clay which I really appreciated! Thankyou for the experience I will continue to work on the skills that have been provided

Sorcha Buchan • Feb 2021

Really enjoyed this class! Informative but also laid back approach to teaching was great thanks!

Alara • Feb 2021

I had a great time, venue was very appropriate. Teacher, Sarah wad welcoming, knowledgeable and teachings were very interactive and inclusive. I learnt alot and would love to go back for another course

Zoe Lassig • Feb 2021

Really enjoyed this class with Sarah. Sarah’s a highly engaging presenter, the content is super interesting and there’s lots of interactivity for the class to discuss. Thought it was a great entry level to Tarot, a fun night out and well worth the money.

Hannah Gilroy • Feb 2021

I took my mum and sister along to the watercolour class and we had a great time. The venue was pretty hot but after a few glasses of wine it didn't matter. Vanessa was lovely and showed us the basics in a quick demo then we were free to try ourselves. She encouraged us to pick pictures for inspiration and checked up on us with pointers and wine refills all night. The whole class left me feeling more confident in my painting skills and ready to try more.

Alexandra Barrientos • Feb 2021

The class was good, the teacher was nice The only think I wish is that she would have talked a little bit slower . I'm quite sure I'm not the first and last foreigner coming to this class.

Conor Gread • Feb 2021

Good teacher, lots of information provided and kept it engaging throughout. I'd recommend this class!

Kay Puy • Feb 2021

I absolutely recommend this Terrazzo workshop - our teacher was super friendly, and not only taught us the essentials, but helped us exercise some extra creativity and run with our ideas. There was plenty of different materials to work with, and the length of the workshop (as well as the venue) was just right. I can’t wait to practice my newfound Terrazzo skills at home with the help of our take home instructions :)

Christine McLiver • Feb 2021

Sarah is really engaging and delivers information in a fun and easy way to understand. I learned new things about Tarot and interpretation, but it has also given me motivation to learn more. Great value for money.

Michael Matthews • Feb 2021

Sarah is an excellent teacher with true skill in what she does. She is clear and easy to understand.

The venue was welcoming and an ideal place to learn about tarot. Easily accessible by public transport also.

I had a wonderful time and will definitely be returning to Sarah’s next class.

Ellen Hawkins • Feb 2021

Bella's class was amazing. She took us through the process step-by-step and created a calm and welcoming atmosphere. The plants provided were all excellent quality. I am so happy with the final product!

Jasmine Wake • Feb 2021

The teacher was so kind and lovely, the dome was such good quality and the moss and plants were so lush and gorgeous.

We we were lucky and a few people didn't show up so we were able to swap out our ferns for theirs (so many different kinds) and got some extra little leaves on the side!

I learnt how to make the little moss balls to wrap around the plants that will provide nutrients instead of using soil!

I love my dome so much and it was so much fun to do! I would love to do another class with that teacher, she was wonderful!

Genevieve Wake • Feb 2021

The teacher was lovely and made it super easy to follow. I’m so happy with how my tropical dome terrarium turned out.

Sam Wolstenholme • Feb 2021

The teacher was absolutely amazing! Everything was set up perfectly and such a really easy going chill vibe.

Debra Gray • Feb 2021

I thought the course was good, giving me the confidence to go it alone and try at home. I felt there was a little too much science for a beginners’ course and I would have liked a few more recipes. All in all it was a positive experience and I would recommend it but you did ask for feedback.

Jeremy Lawrance • Feb 2021

It was a lot of fun with a small class and so everyone had hands on experience. The MIG machines that are used are only good for hobby or art work. It would be nice to have a follow up course with rod type arc welding.

A terrific class with an enthusiastic teacher! Katie guides you through soapmaking theory, culminating in the creation of a 600g soap - and you get to keep the high-quality professional mould! Katie covered all of the basics from soaping ingredients to fragrances and gives a good understanding of how it all comes together. The venue was good with parking in surrounding streets - but get there early. A wonderful way to spend a Saturday morning!

Theresa Fitzgerald • Feb 2021

Found the class great I felt quite rushed in the end of the class cause the walk through just seem to take a long time it would have been better if we could have followed along with the teacher also chairs in this venue suck they are not big girl friendly sorry just being honest

Trudi Hart • Feb 2021

Everything about this class was magnificent. Me and three friends, some wine, clay and lots of laughter. I would absolutely recommend an evening crafting with clay to anyone looking for something fun on a Friday night.
Thanks for a great night
Trudi and friends

Sharyn Hafner • Feb 2021

Class was a good size not to big, probably more precise info on how and when we can pick our boards up eg: asked the question andctge response was for us to check the website to check when the next class was or yo eve say when booking that picking up your piece after the class is required, as I live over an hour away The board selection was also different from the website, some people weren't happy with that. I have recommended this class to me friends on FB so I'll be back for more.

Scharlene Boswarva • Feb 2021

Charlotte is so lovely, and a wonderful teacher. My friend and I had the best afternoon at this workshop, and our take-home bags were enough for us to keep practicing in our own time. I especially liked that the pen provided has two different ways to use it. As with any hobby, it was pretty difficult at first (cue much laughter on our part), but by the end of the workshop, we felt like we had enough of a grasp on the concepts to practice at home. I especially liked that all of the practice work we did at the beginning of the class translated directly into forming letters in the second half of the class too.

Chiara Lesevre • Feb 2021

Teacher, materials provided and venue were just perfect. I have to say I really enjoyed the workshop. Would re do it tomorrow!

Rebecca Piper • Feb 2021

Lots of fun, very educational. Would highly recommend :) take a friend and make some nice gifts for loved ones.

Katie Tomkins • Feb 2021

We had a great time at the statement earrings workshop and came away with a couple of pairs of lovely earrings.
The only thing I would have liked is for more advice from the teacher on how to put our earrings together - thinking about colours that we wear, how heavy the earring might be with too many gems, different styles that we could make, what shapes work ie. odd numbers of beads, large to small placement. We were left to our own devices, which is often great but I think created a bit of angst among the participants who didn't really have a direction for their earrings until the last minute.
Facilities are great and I'd definitely come back!
Thanks for having us.

Neville Owen • Feb 2021

the lesson was good fun and i have already recommended it to other people thanks

-The venue was great, maybe consider aircon though.
- the teacher was knowledgeable and easy to approach for help.
- maybe have a second teacher for large classes as there is a lot of wait time in between steps or go through the full instructions first/have them displayed so people know what to try while waiting
- the resources were fantastic and you definitely got value for your money

Natalie Botha • Feb 2021

This class really helped me understand the fundamentals of linocut, it inspired me to come home and do more linocut. Lottie was a very happy teacher with some great skills. The class had great resources, i'd recommend this class to anyone looking to learn linocut.

Gabrielle Tydd • Feb 2021

2 ClassBento workshops attended • 2 reviews

Lottie was very friendly and helpful, and class was good value for money. One thing that would have been helpful is more warm-up exercises - including a scrap piece of lino for each person to work on. I would be happy to pay a little extra for that. Otherwise a really enjoyable 3 hrs - it went quickly!

Christine Carey • Feb 2021

Amazed at how much was fitted into the three hours - a short history of collage, lots of information and guidance before and during the making of each collage. The venue is great and the teacher was very professional but set a relaxed atmosphere. I loved the slideshow of collages while we were working as it gave ideas and inspiration. I am very keen to attend the next collage class.

Vanessa Marie • Feb 2021

Had such a great time attending this with my Daughter. I was looking for something different to do than the usual movies/dinner/shopping that we normally do together. Highly recommend this class! It was so much fun, great value and the teachers were super helpful.

Lara Dove • Feb 2021

What a wonderful way to spend a rainy day with a good friend.
The class was laidback and perfect for beginners and people easing into their creative side. That being said it could easily accommodate all ranges of skill.
Equipment provided was clean and in great condition. The space was great to move in it seemed to flow really well. Good lighting.
Had a few moments of despair when I couldn't imagine myself making something beautiful but it all came together in a way that left me feeling greatful to have been able to take away something I loved. The teacher Lottie was lovely also. All in all great few hrs.

Chris Arnold • Feb 2021

Vanessa was wonderful. She showed us in easy steps various techniques She encouraged us all the way and made the whole workshop very enjoyable.

Renee Smith • Feb 2021

Great venue, loved learning and Lottie is such a passionate teacher! Thanks so much, such a wonderful way to spend Saturday :)

Giacomo Celesia • Feb 2021

The class perfectly matched our interest in fermentation topic. Joanne & Valerie speak very clear and even the scientific terms and processes are easy to understand. Also they love to joke with each other, creating a chill and cozy ambient.
The price is adequate and in the end you can opt to buy some starter kit to create your own yogurt and kimchi at home.
Recommended!

Very informative session about gut health and lacto fermentation. It was good to hear a bit of the science and biology behind it all.
Teaching the traditional and more conventional methods was great too.

Julia Smith • Feb 2021

Wonderful, fun class. The instructor was so knowledgeable in succulents and gave us great background info, as well as an excellent step by step to making our terrariums, and in a way that we can do it again at home. Would definitely recommend!

I really enjoyed the class and learnt alot about Succulents.
The teacher was awesome and very helpful and friendly.
The only downfall about the night would be that there was music playing in the background so myself and my friends did find it hard to hear the teacher at the start of the lesson when she was talking. Once we started making our terrarium the music was fine.

Amanda Veasey • Feb 2021

Great class that flew by! Learnt a few songs and laughed a lot! Would definitely go to another which was more advanced in the future.

Johanna • Feb 2021

I learnt a lot about bees. The class had a good mix of information and practical building activities.

Gary Dingley • Feb 2021

Overall i liked the class. i am a beginner welder and i learnt some good basics. i am more confident now to go and buy a welder and start using the tool. i realise i still have a lot to learn and i would consider doing another course if it teaches me more and builds on what we have already covered. . if there was one thing i would do differently, it would perhaps be a bit of briefing at the start for 10 mins about the different type of welders in the market and for the mig welder how the unit is set up and works. Our welder for my son and I ran out of wire and could not work. we ended up sharing with another table. it would be good to get a quick overview of how the machine works, any tips for set up and maintenance and then proceed to the class to test and learn to do good welds. lastly, perhaps have a back up machine available if there is a problem on the day. i would be happy to recommend the course and do another course in the future. thank you.

Coco Newbery • Feb 2021

Jemica is really skilled at teaching her passion to people who have never done it, or anything like it before. We came into the class ready to give it a red hot crack but unsure that we would be any good at it. She helped us along the entire way and was always there to answer all the questions that we had. Our pieces turned out fantastic! We’re both really keen to come back and try another of her workshops with other friends and fam this year. Thanks again!

Tom the Pom is a skilled ukulele player and teacher who made learning fun. I left with more skills and confidence than I arrived with.

Vashti Biffanti • Feb 2021

I was so excited to do this class and it didn’t disappoint. Marty was a great teacher, generous with her knowledge and compliments. She patiently answered all my questions. We had plenty of time and materials and took home a handful of colourful creations. It’s so much fun and a soothing hobby you can get lost in as you watch the i ks do their thing. Great class.

Aviel Lee • Feb 2021

The teacher was very knowledgeable on the subject and explained things clearly.

It was also very fun to build my first ever bee hotel.

The $10 discount when bringing a mate was also a nice touch, worth it!

Banurekha Sriranjan • Feb 2021

Tom was fantastic My husband and I loved every bit of it! He made it so much fun and interactive, enjoyed it so much!

Robert Mawston • Feb 2021

Teacher was great, and very experienced. Sharing of the real world aspects of welding added a lot to the basics class, and plenty of time for practising techniques.

Clinton Abbott • Feb 2021

Great class definitely worth the money and the teacher was fantastic hope in the future we can come back to do more advanced welding classes

Nicole Robins • Feb 2021

Excellent tutor - Stuart was very professional, great explanations and very positive feedback. It was a great introduction to the world of welding - which I knew nothing about. Like any skill it takes a lot of practice. I was wondering about whether welding could be of use in my fibre art. Cheers Nicole

Garrick Palmer • Feb 2021

Friendly, relaxed teacher who was knowlegable and happy to answer any questions. Venue was clise to transport and easy for anyone to get to. Macines all worked well. Materials were perfectly adequate without being wasteful.
Think price was fair considering teacher and venue time, materials, consumables and equipment. Came out happy with result and cost.

It’s suitable for all ages and I had a lot of fun creating my own little bee hotel and bee bombs to take home with me. Katrina was also a lovely host and I was inspired by her enthusiasm and captivating personality! 5 stars from me xxx

Kim Dang • Feb 2021

Wonderful class! Rachel, our instructor, was lovely and we went home with a craft that we can easily continue at home :)

This was a fantastic class My first ever painting class, so I was a bit apprehensive. Dianne was really friendly, encouraging and enthusiastic. It was nice to have some structure (for ideas) but also the freedom to try out new creations. She provided lots of demonstrations and offered specific insights to improve our paintings. The whole thing went so quickly. I came home feeling very inspired and excited to try out some new styles Thank you Dianne for all of your knowledge and support! Thank you Work-Shop for a wonderful space. Great experience.

Joanna was just delightful A beautiful soul.
Easy to ask questions, comfortable environment and Joanna gave us excellent explanations & diagrams of what she was teaching us.
Great take home products provided.
I was seated at the back, so I found background music a little loud and therefore hard to hear Joanna.
My friend and I throughly enjoyed our experience.

This was a great class. I wasn't sure how much we'd learn in 4 hours but we covered a lot more than I thought we would! Ivan was a great teacher and balanced answering questions with getting through everything really well. It was run in his garage, which was spotless! I recommend this class

Reece Plunkett • Feb 2021

Good, clear instructions. Good quality supplies. Friendly teacher.

Could probably make the class shorter as we all finished well before time.

Ella Harriaon • Feb 2021

Erica Moloney • Jan 2021

This was a really interesting and accessible class. The teacher was very helpful and I'm delighted with how the broken ceramic pieces I brought to class now have a new lease of life. I would certainly do it again, next time purchasing some of the ceramics available at the start of the class.

Olalla Teira • Jan 2021

This class was excellent! It included a demonstration at the beginning, hand building your pieces and decorating them at the end. Daisy's great teaching skills allowed us to make many different types of ceramics (cups, spoons, bowls, vases, etc). The length of the class (3h) was ideal, enough to finish all the pieces without being rushed nor bored.

Elizabeth Hall • Jan 2021

I brought my grandma and a friend to this class and we all really enjoyed it. I think of myself as absolutely 100% un-artistic and am a really harsh critic of my own efforts, but still managed to get some really nice pieces out of this class and enjoyed the whole process. The techniques are much more simple than I expected and it was great to learn some basic building blocks that can be built up into more complex paintings. My grandma was especially thrilled with the techniques she learned and is now painting flowers on absolutely everything, and my friend was happy to take home some beautifully personalised gifts for her daughter.

Camilla Wundke • Jan 2021

Belle (the teacher) was extremely knowledgeable - she ran an informative and interactive class where I learned so much! The venue was ideal - easy to find, plenty of street parking, and it was not too crowded inside. I recommend this class for those who are brand new to plant propogation, and those who could use a refresher on how to help indoor plants thrive.

Ian was fascinating to listen to and his extensive knowledge and passion for native bees was thoroughly evident.

The venue for the class was perfectly fine although the chairs got a little uncomfortable after sitting for a couple of hours solid.

Kel Durney • Jan 2021

The teacher was super friendly and patient in explaining the process and made time to answer all questions.
What I would have liked to have included in the class was some more detailed explanation of closed terrariums as well even though we didn’t make them just to understand the differences in care and such. The teacher did a great job of reviewing everyone’s work throughout the class and make corrections where needed. Overall good fun and great experience! Looking forward to use what I’ve learnt to make gifts for family and friends over the coming months for various occasions.

Liana was amazing. I brought my 8 year old son and she was so patient and gave great instructions. This was such a great item to tick off my bucket list and I will absolutely book booking another class. We both are complete newby’s at art and water colour and we thoroughly enjoyed the class.

Alexandra Jackson • Dec 2020

Class was amazing - had a really good time.
Teacher was friendly, inviting and very informative! Have definitely walked away with tips to look after my baby terrarium. Easy to follow instructions and will definitely try to do this again on my own at home.

Susan • Dec 2020

The workshop was very informative. I learn a lot during the workshop and looking forward to the next workshop.

Scott Trevethan • Dec 2020

Great venue, perfect participants but all that pales against the amazing teaching from Elisa. What a wonderful journey to be on!

Linna Huang • Dec 2020

The class was a fun and lighthearted 1.5hrs with great access to materials and a fantastic learning experience. Our teacher Chet was kind and chill so we had a great time. Very recommended.

Kat was amazing. The space was perfect to facilitate the class and was super easy to find with lots of parking. It was designed for all levels of essential oil knowledge and she had a great variety of oils to experiment with. I’ve worn the blend I made every day since.

Lulu Siret • Dec 2020

Great teacher, very inspiring, great venue. The group was maybe just a little to large to share for me but it was very safe though.
I’m very keen to do more of Elisa’s workshops!

Ricky Kuruppu • Dec 2020

was a step out of the comfort zone, but the space and teacher was great. There's lot to learn on this topic, but a great place to start. Everyone was friendly too.

This was a really fun experience. Sally is a great teacher, highly recommend to everyone.

Sharon Lakua • Dec 2020

This class was a birthday present for my daughter at her suggestion. Fabulous gift as it turns out! We had a tiny experience of essential oils but you don't need to as Cat gave an outline and demonstration of how to mix oils to give a pleasing outcome. We had plenty of time to experiment in the funky city fringe venue which was very adequate for the class. We had access to a vast array of oils to experiment with. It was a lot of fun. Perhaps related to exposure to the oils, and/or using under-used senses and right brain hemisphere, we were both very tired and relaxed when we went home. I'm a terrible sleeper but I slept really well that night.

What a fantastic skill to learn! Amy, our teacher, was very friendly, kind, and approachable. The class was nice and chilled, and we all walked away with a completed project, or materials to complete it at home, as well some information sheets on what we had learnt. Twas a most enjoyable evening.

I had an awesome time at Penny's class! We learnt about a few nasty products to avoid, and why, and then we made our very own face serum, followed by our own special bath bombs. I'm grateful for the knowledge Penny shared with us, and for the goodies we got to take home. All in all, this was a great way to spend the evening.

This was such a fun course! We created our own little creature during the course. Cat was a great host - she explained all the steps really well, including helping us figure out how we could customise our creature. She was kind, patient and creative, and it was just so much fun. We had all the materials we needed and the workshop was quite comfortable. Very fun workshop!

Thank you Jo, for a lovely afternoon at Work Shop.

Work Shop is a gorgeous warehouse space in Fitzroy. Wonderfully laid back, comfortable and enjoyable.
I look forward to looking at more courses available through their space.

Catherine Woo • Dec 2020

Daisy was fantastic and so attentive to us. The venue was bright and airy - especially since we were working with chemicals it was comfortable to work in. The materials were great and gave us the opportunity to continue crafting at home. Very worthwhile and gave us skills we can use in the future - we can now source our own materials and gauge how best to fix our own ceramics in the future.

Bethan King • Dec 2020

Helena was a super teacher and explained everything clearly at the start of the class. She also spent time helping out whenever anyone needed her. All the materials were laid out ready for us. Great venue with plenty of street parking. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Renee Greasley • Dec 2020

Michelle Stroungis • Dec 2020

So happy I came across this workshop! I really enjoyed Sheree's teaching style and loved that I was able to play with a bunch of different types of clay and tools to understand the differences myself that Sheree mentioned. I learnt a lot from Sheree in a short space of time and I'm looking forward to practising those techniques and developing my skills. Would highly recommend

Sarah Homan • Dec 2020

The whole experience was exceptional. The knowledge coming from Sheree was excellent and delivered not only with humour but no judgement, which meant newbies to this medium (like myself) could fully explore and get creative without any shyness. The group was also delightful and we all had a wonderful time together. The workshop space itself was bright open and inviting and all the attention to detail didn't go unnoticed. I can't wait to do more workshops, both with Sheree and with the workshop facilitators as well.

Muhammad Zafar • Dec 2020

Great class, learned a lot. Ivan is a great teacher, and his assistant Tiana was wonderful too. Enjoyed having it in the mechanic environment. Only thing was some people asking questions they should really save until the end delayed us so much we didn't get to go through everything. Not Ivan's fault though, he did a great job

Kylie Livermore • Nov 2020

Dianne was a great teacher. She explained the techniques by demonstrating first. I liked the way she said that you shouldn’t copy from another artwork, as you are using your left brain stay in the right brain! I learnt some cool techniques for painting birds and fish, as well as using different brushes.

I got so much value out of her class which was very well equipped with every thing we needed. The venue was really was pretty good and very easy to find, nice coffee shop out the front. I liked the fact it wasn’t too big a class also. I would highly recommend this class to anyone. It was fun and the morning went way too fast.

Absolutely outstanding class held by Ian on 22/11/20. Engaging to listen to, happy to answer questions and the hive split was very interesting to watch. A special thanks to the bees for the honey we got to taste. Absolutely sensational. Have recommended to multiple people already and we will be back down the track, as more is uncovered about our native bees.

Sharon Vaughan • Nov 2020

What was the teacher like? Soooo helpful, soooo knowledgeable, really awesome.
How was the venue? Seemed to be in good working order. Honestly, I was having too much fun to notice.
If materials were provided, did you like them? Materials were fine.
Was the class good value for money? 100%
What did you do / learn? Learnt the three methods of construction, and built a wool dispenser and soap dish.

Tom the Pom is a great teacher, and on top of learning the basics of Ukulele, you will laugh a lot at his jokes!

I had never held a music instrument in my life before, but my the end of the session, I was able to play some simple melodies on the ukulele that was provided during the session. Would definitely recommend attending this class!

Cassandra Grey • Nov 2020

In the year that has been 2020 sitting for 2 hours and making things out of clay was one of the highlights of my year. I was a total beginner and Vanessa was a fabulous teacher who demonstrated techniques well and helped me make some great pieces. I’ll definitely be back

Tegan Jeffreys • Nov 2020

Really enjoyed this workshop. The teacher was revert knowledgeable and engaging. I’ve really enjoyed telling anyone who will listen, what I have learnt about bees :)

Margi Macdonald • Nov 2020

Very informative and entertaining, with the added delight of tasting local honey scooped fresh from the hive.
Sample bag to-go was another bonus.
I'm inspired and confident to replant my garden to attract more native bees.

Luana Balzano • Nov 2020

The class was a great value for money. All materials were provided and we also received a box with lots of goods inside. I really loved this workshop and I developed a passion for earrings in polymer clay as a result. The teacher was wonderful, super nice and supportive. The vibe of the venue was incredible. I also really enjoyed the music that was played. I have learnt all the basics of how to work with polymer clay, and how to texturise and compose the earrings. I definitely recommend this course to anyone who is considering to try this super fun activity.

Vesela Beleganska • Nov 2020

Roxanna was a wonderful teacher - very patient, warm and friendly, helpful.

Silver ring carving class was great fun. The teacher was lovely and friendly and the experience was certainly worth it. Looking forward to seeing our finished rings.

Would definitely recommend this work shop to others!

We attended the Succulent Terrarium class at the Work-shop in Newstead. Our teacher was very friendly and knowledgeable. Street parking was not a problem and plenty of room for each person to work. Everything was laid out as we needed it making the whole process very easy. We each went home with lovely succulent bowls with new skills and ideas for Christmas gifts. We are now keen to attend more classes in the future as there are so many options to choose.

Crystal McWilliam • Nov 2020

I’ve been to a few workshops in my exploration of female sexuality and my relation with it all, and I must say that Georgia’s class and her offering was the best. In just 2 hrs I felt like I’d had my own hands on experience of what sensuality, confidence and what I actually desire and want means to me and how to healthily express it. The whole workshop was interactive which meant that I could learn and actually EMBODY what I was learning! Her knowledge and presence was indescribable, herself as a facilitator was very calm, safe and connected to us. I felt healed, held and safe. So very important for topics such as these.

All ya women even created a group to stay in touch! That’s how much honouring and love there was! ❤️

Thank you Georgia
I’ll be keeping an eye out for more of your events and offerings for sure.

Crystal.

This was a lovely class to attend. Sherri is extremely knowledgeable about her craft and had loads of helpful information to share!
I found the size of the class a bit large and more materials could have been provided as people were left waiting to use one of the 2 tapes that was available for a class of about 20.

Alisha Cunningham • Nov 2020

I was so impressed with today’s polymer clay workshop. The venue was spacious and the teacher was so generous with her resources and time. I really loved how I was able complete a few sets of earrings, bake them and add the components. The short demo at the beginning gave everyone enough time to experiment and explore different patterns and designs. There was a large range of cutters and I was so delighted with the goodies box that was given to everyone. This would make a fantastic girls day out or a hens gathering. Just loved it

Susan Zuzarte • Nov 2020

Jemika was constantly helpful and had great ideas :) lots of quality products to choose from as well

Rosalee McNeil • Nov 2020

Liked that the teacher encouraged us to paint our own thing rather than copy something, but it would have been helpful to know before the day, so we could have thought about what we were going to paint rather than think of something on the spot.
The colour tuition was good, but she didn't give much instruction on impasto which is what the workshop was about. Also spoke too softly.

Lisa Chung • Nov 2020

Tamina was really helpful and she made it easy to learn. I really liked that she also asked which stitches that people wanted to learn and then taught us how to do these harder ones.

I really loved the workshop! Didn’t realise it would be doTERRA centred, but I understand given it’s all natural. Wondering why that isn’t mentioned within the description directly, though. The teacher was so so lovely and we made some really beautiful products, I love them all. It’s a lovely and inspiring way to spend an evening!

Super informative class that touched on the impact of natural skincare on a personal, environmental and sustainable level.

Megan was so personable and genuine in her passions and teachings.

The class has inspired me to venture and experiment with home made skincare myself. We were also given additional recipes for future use. Thumbs up all round

Wendy Layther • Nov 2020

Bella explained techniques very well. Her voice projected well and she identified problems quickly and was very supportive without being condescending. Information given was detailed enough for me to feel confident creating my own projects.

Sarah Macneil • Nov 2020

I brought my team to this workshop and Kaila was amazing and the workshop crew were wonderful. The venue is super cool and we had the best time!

Claire Manase • Nov 2020

Clear instructions and a great new skill to learn; however, the following points were disappointing:
Not enough moulds per table.
More resin, and moulds should have been supplied and duplicated on each table to save time wandering around groups, waiting for others to finish. Better quality moulds required as some participants jewellery had defects and according to the instructor were due to old moulds. Moulds and sample bangles should have been matched up on each table so you could easily find what you wanted. Some music needed for atmosphere during creation time would have been good. A more enthusiastic instructor required, as she looked bored, playing on her phone, minimal interaction with participants after instructions were given. Whispered to other helper she was going to finish early. Very hot venue. All in all, okay but not worth $135.

Nerida Talbot • Nov 2020

Was a wonderful class Jemica was a patient and fantastic teacher who explained everything easily and clearly to give the confidence to make a fantastic piece of jewellery! Loved every minute.

It's such a welcoming space to let your creativity (or lack thereof) flow and she's always happy to help. If something won't work, Kaila will tell you I can see this perfect for birthdays, hens, and even team building activities! Highly recommend!

Mark Dick • Oct 2020

Fantastic couple of hours spent with Ian. Learnt so much about these amazing little bees. Even if you are not thinking of keeping bees just going for the information is well worth it. Great value for money. Was really surprised at the taste of the honey nothing like what I expected. Ians enthusiasm for these little bees definitely shows when he is giving his talk. Fantastic venue only one small negative is the chairs are a little uncomfortable besides that fantastic evening.

Such a positive and uplifting experience. The teacher had several exercises that were well planned, simply explained and easy to execute but made you use your brain and body in interesting and fresh ways. Beautiful basic supplies provided to not only complete the exercises but to take home and continue experimenting, excellent value for money. Highly recommend this class for anyone who doesn't think they are arty but wants to accomplish something and start practicing or anyone who is arty but wants to try letting go especially if you are experiencing the dreaded art block.

The class was great, very informative. The teacher was very engaging and her enthusiasm was contagious. It was lovely to go home with some cuttings and now I can start my journey with the knowledge gained.
Also the notes emailed to us are both beautifully presented and full of information as I go forward, hopefully filling my home with housplants.

Serena Zhou • Oct 2020

Sarah was funny, energetic and interactive.
She made tarot reading so much easier to understand When we got into groups in the end to practice what we learnt in a simple reading for ourselves, we all felt like we understood the meanings with much more clarity.
Thank you Sarah for sharing your talent and time

Anita Senior • Oct 2020

Loved the class on every level Jude and Richard had put in an enormous of preparation to make the class flow with ease. Their knowledge was extensive. The Garden of Joy was just that, it was the perfect setting for a wild basket class. I’d totally recommend this class to anyone who loves baskets.

Everything was beautiful! Lovely relaxing and educational evening of tea brewing and tea sipping. Really appreciated the opportunity to go wild trying all the different teas, spices, herbs and fruits. It was a great social event too- everyone was so open to a nice chat. Everything ran very smoothly and I left feeling chill and very happy with my little pot of my very own tea! Thank you so much to the Tour de Tea crew.

Alyson was a great, friendly teacher. Her explanations and guidance in this class were targeted for the beginner, which was ideal.

Loved the class. Heather was a terrific teacher giving individual time to participants. It was a shame we ran out of time way before completing the project. It would have been time saving if the rope had been precut. The venue was good, it may be hot in the summer months as not air conditioned. Thankyou

Robyn Essex • Oct 2020

Spring was a fabulous and very supportive teacher. Her explanations and demonstration was easy to follow which made our attempts far easier. She was supportive of all our designs. The workshop space was fabulous, open and creative. It was great having tea, coffee and water available. I would highly recommend this workshop. It was great value for the money.

Monique Drexel • Oct 2020

The class was so much fun I didn’t even want to stop for the break. We made one basket each. It didn’t look like much when we started but it slowly took shape and I think everyone was very happy with the end result. The location was lovely and the light lunch provided was yummy. I’ll definitely do more classes with Judith and Richard.

Toni Richardson • Oct 2020

My friend and I thought the class was too big for the teacher to handle.
She struggled to get around to everyone.
Perhaps being organized with string pre-cut would have saved time, 3 ladies mentioned this very point.
Communication was poor, attention to detail was ordinary. No ability to assess individual needs in a group situation. I would not recommend her class to friends and family.

Elisa is engaging & ‘real’. She communicates her wisdom in a relatable & light hearted way and holds safe space for anything that may come up. I’m loving her workshops.

I have become increasingly frustrated with the workshop facilitation company however. I have sent a number of emails that have not been responded to- ever, with many weeks gone past. This included a request to transfer from one workshop to another. I was entirely ignored despite sending two different emails about it. I was also not advised when a session was rescheduled. This week I was not sent the zoom link for this weeks session until after it had commenced. I love Elisa’s workshops however would not recommend this facilitation company to anyone as I have found all engagement to be frustrating and unprofessional.

Jayne Collins • Oct 2020

I really enjoyed the class. Easy venue to get to and well set up. Jo was a lovely teacher. Very knowledgable & helpful. Left with blue hands, but also confident I could try this at home :)

Our instructor was a super hilarious guy who has an eye for ~terrarium aesthetic~. Covered enough theory to understand why you're adding all the layers and how to keep your plant babies alive but we were able to get our hands dirty soon enough. Everyone got a good range of plants (spikey, not spikey), rocks, decorations. Would definitely recommend.

Sophie Harris • Oct 2020

Very informative with theoretical underpinnings but also lots of practical tips. Lots of good analogy’s and descriptors. Thanks for a great session.

What was the teacher like? Sally is so lovely, she explained and demonstrated the techniques so well and loved how she explained the therapeutic benefits of painting and how it affects the different parts of the brain
How was the venue? So easy to get to, a short walk from redfern station. Nice venue, a bit chilly in winter so bring something warm to wear. There was also a tea and coffee station but there wasn't any milk so I had a herbal tea instead. Should have grabbed a coffee from the cafe near the station on my way in!
If materials were provided, did you like them? The quality of the materials provided were amazing.
Was the class good value for money? Yes, absolutely
What did you do / learn? We learnt how to sketch a still life object, then how to turn the sketch into a template you can paint over with watercolour, lots of different water colour techniques and got to paint some scenes. Loved that we didn't have to stop at 1pm on the dot and could stay and carry on painting.

Renee Chan • Sep 2020

Loved the beautifully branded kits, the thoughtful inclusion of snacks given it went over the lunch hour.
Appreciated that the focus of the workshop was short instruction and freedom to experiment - also that we weren't limited to the nunber of pieces we could make, or the amount of product we used during the workshop.
Had an immense amount of fun and learned a lot in a very short space of time.
Highly recommend

Sara Richardson • Sep 2020

Knowledgeable and enthusiastic teacher! We had a generous amount of clay and varied tools to experiment with. It was hard to stop making I learnt enough in the 4 hours to feel confident to continue making at home.

Annaliese Mitchell • Sep 2020

Loved this workshop! I've done a couple of basket weaving workshops before but this is definitely the fastest and the one you'd probably replicate at home later. Charlotte is very friendly and explains in a really easy to understand way. The class was well organised, it was an easy to find venue, and I'm very happy with the bag I made. I liked this workshop so much that I'm going to organise a private class for Charlotte to teach me how to make a hat.

Elisa’s powerful teachings were communicated in an engaging and effective way, even while on zoom instead of in person. I recommend highly and will sign up for as many of her workshops as I can.

The Teacher was excellent and very engaging, making eye contact with everyone as she explained the various techniques.
The class was interesting and informative plus wine was inclusive, although on the invitation it stated BYO, I was happy to find out this was not the case.
I would suggest this be clarified, as when I emailed Melbourne support they said that wine was not included, I hope this may not effect future sales.
A good time had by all,
Thanks Gerry Berdebes.

Wonderful workshop making fantastic earrings out of laser cut acrylic pieces. The acrylic pieces are lovely and plenty to choose from. Everything is provided for and we got to make 4 sets of earrings. We also got glue and an earring stand to take home. Three hours turn out not to be enough as I felt like I could do this all day! The workshop is beginner friendly but would suit anyone crafty. Thanks for the awesome morning!

Jessica Adsett • Aug 2020

This workshop was brilliant, we had such a nice time learning about propagation and general tips on helping your houseplants thrive! Bella was SO knowledgeable, and clear with all the information she provided. The information was presented in such a clear way with diagrams and plenty of examples of different propagating methods. Bella brought along heaps of different plants to show us the various methods, and we especially loved her notes about sustainability. She gave us lots of information on how to re-use and recycle items, and how to be environmentally friendly with things like pest control and plant growth etc.
The venue was easy to find, parking was right outside, and we were able to take away plenty of plant cuttings and loads of knowledge to become masters of propagation! Thank you so much Bella, and the Workshops team for making our experience easy and fu.

Janet Oconnor • Aug 2020

This was an excellent class. The teacher was very clear and helpful.and took me right out of my comfort zone. This class was given to me as a gift and with all the issues with Covid they have been so helpful. It was such an easy venue to get to and very comfortable. The first hour I found so valuable learning about mixing colours and then we moved onto our canvas and as promised I came home with something I was very proud of. I will certainly recommend the classes, teacher and venue to others.

Daniella Laurenzi • Aug 2020

The class is fun, informative & very good value. The materials & take away terrarium are great. The venue is very shabby & better instructions are much needed for how to find the class location. The street numbers jump around & there is no information at ground level, outside or inside the building to tell you you're in the right place. The address doesn't come up in any GPS apps & the building info says it's 'Nauti Studio' but that's not listed in any of the info. Apart from being super difficult to find, I enjoyed the class, the teachers were lovely & hospitable & love my terrarium.

My boyfriend and I attended a webinar with Elisa this week, and we absolutely loved it! We were both a little nervous, and it was certainly out of both of our comfort zones! Elisa immediately made us feel at ease (even though we were in a Zoom!) and made a clear effort to ensure that we all felt comfortable throughout the session. It was suitable for both couples and singles and everyone was friendly and open to discussions.

Elisa explained Tantra beautifully and simply, so that even my boyfriend who had no idea about it previously, understood what was going on. Sometimes when you go to workshops I've found that you get a lot of information with nothing tangible to bring into your own lives moving forward. I loved that she talked us through exercises that we can now use in our own time and even emailed us a copy in case we forget!

Even though we were both a little nervous, I am so glad we made the step to come to the workshop. We were given the permission to share our wants and needs with one another in the supported environment. l thought that before we were pretty open with each other, but it allowed us the space to be completely vulnerable and share things that we had not thought previously to share.

I found Elisa to be lovely and approachable and I look forward to attending another of her Workshops next week. Now that I've told a few friends about the workshop, they have all asked me to pass on Elisa's information as they want to try it for themselves!

Excellent class. Materials were provided, the teacher clearly explained the process, provided a easy to understand demonstration and we received an instruction booklet via email afterwards. I got great satisfaction from making my own wraps. If you are doing this class in Winter the warehouse style venue is cold so wear warm clothes! I highly recommend this class!

Debra Vermillion • Aug 2020

Very excited to do this class. Excitement started to wane when came time to staple as staple guns were of very poor quality and I had difficulty finding a decent one to use. Teacher didn't help much, but after everyone else was finished, helped me. Then I felt rushed and not entirely pleased with the end result.
This class needs new and better staple guns.
Regards, Debra

Roxanna was lovely and personable. I thought the class was priced reasonably.
Some suggestions are for more teaching on techniques and the process from end to end; also for the fine work, the lighting at the venue was not the best. Maybe on desk lamps would have helped.

Elizabeth Atherton • Aug 2020

My husband and I had a lovely time. Would recommend to anyone. Teacher was friendly approachable and knowledgeable.
Only thing would be if you had pricing for a couple because we came home with two of everything. So we had bread coming out our ears - not the worst problem to have.

The materials were generous and value for money was excellent.
There was a good number of students and enough resources to cater to everyone. Enough access to Lottie so you could ask for help and questions.
The only tip I would give is for the initial instruction to be a little more step by step for us beginners! Overall, an unreal course thank you

Yasmin Kennedy • Aug 2020

This was a great workshop easier than I thought it would be! And I love the end product. There was time for everyone to be shown what to do, out teacher was very patient, other participants were also more than keen to lend a hand.

For future participants, be aware of how much fabric you need, it caught a couple of us out. You need a 67x85 cm piece for the top, and two 30x105 cm pieces for going around the sides. Check your piece of fabric to make sure you have enough length and also in case you need to pattern match.

Liam was wonderful with all communication, about what we needed to bring, he was punctual, organised, very polite and sincere. We were guided through the tricks with care - everyone could ask to be shown again when needed. Best of all the night was so much fun and I can highly recommend LIam's workshop. We would all enjoy to do it again.

Amy and her colleague were fabulous - very knowledgable about tea, warm and friendly and everyone had time to ask questions and get suggestions as she went around the tables. They adapted very well to the COVID-safe changes. We got to try a variety of teas, then take a lovely little jar of our own blend home along with a great infuser. A great way for a tea lover to spend an afternoon!

I have actually been to a resin class with Sheri before and she is lovely and instructive. The location had a good set-up being spread out, particularly with the current Covid-19. For the the size of the cheese boards/platters and the additional coasters and the resin, I believe that while it might seem a bit on the pricier side, I think it is definitely well worth it!

Really loving the growth of my tarot reading since participating in the class, I feel like the class gave me the building blocks and now it’s all up to me!

So yeah, I had a great night and enjoyed everything about the night - even the social distancing whilst still dealing with covid-19 restrictions.

If your umming and ahhing JUST DO IT!

Amy Wong • Jul 2020

Sarah was nice and the info she presented was informative. However I think more time could be spent on the practical experience with the tarot cards and doing readings for each other and figuring out what it means.
The room was way too cold for winter and there was no heating.

Javiera Valdes • Jul 2020

really fast and easy workshop, all the materials and knowledge were there ready to go.

Loved the venue as was a good size and could park outside, but should have bought a flask of coffee with me. Dianne was lovely and a good teacher but feel she should have introduced herself and given a bit of her art history at the start of the class. There was plenty of beautiful paints and colours as well as new techniques . Totally enjoyed the class and was very happy with my painting. Was also great to chat with the other participants.

Bev Ryan • Jul 2020

Materials were in good supply. Instruction was clear and encouraging. I am very happy with results.

Louise Palmer • Jul 2020

Our teacher was friendly and willing to offer advice. She gave EVERY person feel valued and made sure to spend time with each (not just the most needy lol).

The studio was nicely set up with all equipment provided. The first hour was spent experimenting mixing colours using palette knives, brushes (and fingers!) and building textures using impasto. It’s fun and 3 hours went by very quickly!

Fantastic environment and group energy. Both teachers generous in sharing knowledge and helping with ideas and feedback.

Ruby Flynn • Jul 2020

A wonderful workshop for creative play. Each basket was different and it was fun to learn a less structured style of weaving. Lovely, informative teachers as well :)

Molly Woodhouse • Jul 2020

Had a great time learning how to random weave baskets with weed species (a plus for me and landcare), and was also provided with information about which easily accessible plants in my garden could be suitable. Enough info to go it on my own now! A lovely morning well spent with an easy going atmosphere and great teachers. Thanks Judith and Richard!

Amanda Delahoy • Jul 2020

Fantastic class lead by kind, knowledgeable people! Loved coming away with a basket, and the skills to keep exploring wild basket weaving. Thanks for a great morning!

Marieke Hol • Jul 2020

Great value for money, loved the space. Steven was fun and informative, Had a fun night.

Gabriella Asciak • Jul 2020

Stephen was absolutely fantastic. My friend and I had a great time not only painting but learning some of the theory behind what we were doing. A wonderful hands on (socially distanced!) experience.

Nicole Powell • Jul 2020

I really enjoyed this workshop, it was a wonderful intro to the Major Arcana, comparing a traditional deck and a contemporary deck. It was enlightening, to work as a collective to 'feel into' the imagery of the card. Sarah is a great facilitator, very knowledgeable and personable. I would certainly recommend this workshop.

Chloe Leaker • Jul 2020

This workshop was great for first time beginners to Tarot reading. Very informative and interactive even though we had to remain socialing distance! Hoping to see more classes from Sarah soon!

Brenda Harvey • Jul 2020

I really enjoyed the class easy to understand learnt heaps about cheese and that it’s easy to make

Emily Attridge • Jul 2020

It was a great intro to cheese and yoghurt making. Sampled some cheeses and yoghurts to really get interested in making our own :-)

Tess Grieve • Jul 2020

Such an entertaining class! Great energy - really helpful and good fun. Look forward to coming again

Alex Torney • Jul 2020

A really good introduction to welding, I was able to glean some insights that I dont think I'd have been able to figure out alone, such as how to set the welder to work properly. We worked with gasless mig welders. Started by doing a few tack welds and once we'd achieved a tack of decent strength we attempted some full length welds. I think I achieved a solid foundational skill to be honed.

Casey Finigan • Jul 2020

The teacher was a lovely man with lots of knowledge. Very hands on learning which I enjoyed.

Stephanie Shang • Jul 2020

Great class! The 4 hours flew by and learned a lot of interesting principles to apply to the painting. Christopher was a very patient teacher that offered a lot of hands on help.

Marco Gheri • Jul 2020

Good class for beginner, recommended for having a bit of understanding about how to set-up the machine and do basic stitching

David Goodsall • Jul 2020

I wanted to learn how to identify correct machine settings and tell a good weld from a bad one. Came away with that as well understanding how to get a smooth flat weld and fix mistakes. More than I expected and all in a single introduction session. Phil was good explaining what to do and then getting us to do it.

Pam Beaverson • Jul 2020

Thoroughly enjoyed the whole afternoon our teacher was excellent with her description of what we were trying to create and the end product. I’m sure I’ll come back for more classes again

Amy Miller • Jul 2020

The painting class was a great experience. We learnt skilful techniques around colour, contrast and tone. Chris is obviously an amazing artist and taught us quickly and efficiently. I love my painting!

Ian Roche • Jul 2020

Teacher was super friendly and very knowledgeable,explained technical details in a very easy to understand way.The difference between my first weld and my last was unbelievable. Very good teacher,fills you with confidence and that makes you want to improve.

Dougal Biggart • Jul 2020

Great hands on for gas-less MIG welding. I think some diagrams on a board to explain theories on good and bad welds for beginners. Also maybe on the info prior to the course you could tell people if they have gloves and mask to bring theirs so they can experience their use. A lot to cover in three hours and I think it was great to hands on and experiment before buying a machine. Instructor was very patient and lots of advice. Would recommend to the beginner, the unsure or curious.

Jess from The Roving Artisan was amazing. Patient, informative and engaging. I felt really supported and was able to produce great work. She made it feel easy and achievable. Would definitely recommend and will do this class again for sure.

The class was such good fun from the moment we walked in the door. Tom tailored the class to the student’s abilities and keeps you on your toes with his quick wit and tricky drum beats to make sure you are following. The drums are all hand-strumg by Tom and excellent quality. Highly recommend!

Mark Liam • Jul 2020

The workshop was heaps of fun. Kaila expertly explained the various clay techniques, and allowed us to create our own objects. She also taught us decorating and glazing. There was plenty of space to work and heaps of tools to use. I would definitely attend the class again!

Sue Fine • Jul 2020

It was lots of fun, Tom was very entertaining and engaging.

Carmel • Jul 2020

My daughter and I did native bee workshop. The teacher was fabulous. He was so funny, engaging and knowledgeable. The venue was ok. No consideration for social distancing during make and take. This spoiled the experience somewhat which was disappointing. The teacher was fantastic the content was engaging the activity was fabulous and we learned so much about our native bees. I have to say however that I will think twice about doing another workshop with Bento if they do not take social distancing seriously.

Gaetan Lozes • Jul 2020

Definitely an interesting workshop. Elisa is full of energy and share her knowledge with enthusiasm and fun.
Online sessions are less genuine I guess but it was still a good experience.

Lucy Harrison • Jul 2020

The class was fun, interactive and I learnt a lot. Would definitely recommend Elisa's classes to anyone

Sarah Ritchie • Jul 2020

We had a really good night. It was relaxed atmosphere and I learnt enough to start doing some fermenting and pickling at home.

Emily Walker • Jul 2020

Ian was a fantastic teacher, passionate and informed! He ran the class in 2 hours but it was obvious that he could have run a full day course and have not run out of information or let his attendees get bored. Great experience making our own bee hotels, and a good venue too. I would 10/10 recommend!

Sarina Lowe • Jul 2020

Absolutely loved this class! It was on Zoom because of the COVID lockdown in Melbourne, but didn’t feel much different to being there in person.

Elisa provided so much valuable information, plenty of diagrams and opportunities to discuss in smaller groups.

I would 100% recommend this course and will be doing her next one!

Linda Smith • Jul 2020

Easy to get to venue via public transport and the class was just the right duration. The teacher has a wealth of knowledge. I had fun and learnt basics around the use of hydrosols, essential oils and anti oxidants. I would recommend this class to anyone keen for a creative outlet or looking to understand their personal body care products a bit more, and to either continue to make these at home.

Whilst the teacher was knowledgeable, there was very little time spent on palette knife. No opportunity to try different tools to see their effect.

Really enjoyed the class, the teacher was very patient and clear.

I've been to a few classes at work shop and have always come away with a kind of take home finished piece, wall hanging, dyed pieces, a painting etc.

For this class there was a lot of practice time which I appreciate is key for lettering. But it would have been great to spend the last 45/30 minuets of the class working towards maybe a post card or greeting card on some nice paper/card to have that finished piece to take home, even if it's not perfect!

Amelie Groves • Jul 2020

Vanessa Dillette • Jul 2020

Teacher was awesome, and the selections of designs were great. Venue was okay, lights were out so we had spotlights which wasn't awesome but they did they best they could at short notice. There was no social distancing whatsoever until someone else at the other end of the room requested some, which I wasn't brave enough to do myself. Was pretty disappointed in that. Would I come to another class? Maybe.

We had a great night at the Stitch and Bitch session. There were 4 designs to choose from and we were given all of the equipment we needed. Our teacher was very thorough on explaining and demonstrating what we needed to do. She was extremely helpful as well with anything we needed in terms of further steps.

It was a great night out and excellent value for money!

Vanessa, our clay teacher was fantastic, she explained processes very well and demonstrated with clay what we needed to do ( for those visual learners) , the studio was nice with some heather for this cold nights. All materials were supplied, and there were so many tools to achieve the look I wanted. Great night out

It was my first time doing this and I got invited by my sister with short notice, so I wasn't sure what to expect. In 2 hrs the teacher taught and utilized the time really well so we could learn some fundamental basics about watercolor and go home feeling "i can do this at home".

Michelle Brandwood • Jul 2020

Great class. Tamina was excellent at teaching the stitches and checking with us if we needed help along the way. She spent time to show us stitched that we asked about. I feel much more confident in stitching at home. Tamina was super approachable and offered everyone to contact her if they need help. Thanks for a great class

The class was a good way to try out weaving. A great range of colours and thicknesses of wool were provided in the class, as well as a pdf of weaving to try out and other sources of weaving advice. Bec was fantastic, getting around to all in the class to show stitches and help where needed. There is no requirement to finish it on the night as not only do you leave with your weaving project, but also the loom!

Rebecca Bailey • Jul 2020

Fun morning which everyone can enjoy. Daisy is a great teacher. Relaxed but practical vibe

Dajana Buechner • Jul 2020

I can highly recommend this course for everyone who wants to learn how to bake sourdough.
The teacher is really friendly, has very good knowledge and makes the course fun.
I thought we would experiment with rye flour but I do understand know why this isn't right for beginners. My goal is to bake awesome rye sourdough and the course gave me the tips and tricks to make it happen. Thank you!

Stefani Tan • Jul 2020

We learn a lot and the teacher was excellent and friendly. The Covid 19 restriction does make it more difficult to get the most out of it, given that we also have to watch our own distance. It also feel a bit rushed. The 3 artwork is crucial to explore the techniques and making the class worthwhile, but the 2hrs felt a bit too short. The galaxy theme is the best! The apple was a bit more difficult. The masterpiece ties them all back together and is a prize for pride. Brush/tool methods reminder i think was as important to revisit in the apple work.

Rameez Kneebone • Jul 2020

Claire was amazing and really make me feel that anyone can draw, you don't have to be a great artist. The materials provided were fantastic quality and Claire delivered the workshop in an organised and professional manner.

Thanks so much,

Katie Buckley • Jul 2020

Our Teacher was great, as were all materials provided. Definitely Learnt what I came for. The venue was fine, but could be better as it got darker we had to request more light to see the detail as we worked, also it was very cold and no heaters were available so my fingers got cold and actually made it harder to stitch! A warming cup of tea (provided by the receptionist maybe, as opposed to the teacher) halfway through would have been a nice touch!

Emma Travers • Jul 2020

I attended the statement earring workshop and loved it. This was my first time making earrings and Amy did a fantastic job in teaching us. I now feel confident to get creative and make more earrings at home ❤️

Julianne McKnight • Jul 2020

Bec was a good teacher - very patient & catered well to differing capabilities. Lots of wool to choose from & great that we could take home what we needed if we didn’t finish our piece. Fun class & 2 hours passed so quickly. Would highly recommend as some quality time on your own or with friends.

Sarah Nolan • Jul 2020

Liana was great! Very insightful. Class was good, however hard environment to learn in with the Covid restrictions (hard to see demonstrations and techniques from a distance). Maybe a projector that could show us a close up would be helpful for this?

Libby Elvy • Jul 2020

Lovely fun night learning the basics of 'how to knit'. Our teacher Pauline created a friendly relaxed atmosphere, providing us with gorgeous wooden needles, yarn and instructions to get started with plus further resources to access from home. Pauline's assistant (I'm so annoyed her name escapes me at the moment, Lucy?) was incredibly helpful too. Work-Shop HQ is a great creative space that I'd be happy to return to again.
Thank you, Libby

Tania Nichols • Jul 2020

This was an excellent class. The teacher was knowledgeable and enthusiastic as well as quite funny. I thought it was very good value considering the wool and knitting needles were Included in the cost of the class.

Annabel Birmingham • Jul 2020

Pauline, materials venue great and felt like good value.
Perhaps to many students to get maximum support especially for real first timers.
But lots of fun and would recommend to others.

Teacher Pauline was lovely, inspiring and very thorough
I already have a scarf knitted and hope to do much more!

Asmita Kailainathan • Jul 2020

Really enjoyed this class. I’ve never done knitting before, but left the class in love with it!
Absolutely loved the materials we got. The wool is sustainable and biodegradable that is ethically sourced (means a lot to me). And the knitting needles we got were so lovely - I look forward to continuing my knitting journey. Pauline was a great teacher - a lot of us struggled but she was very patient and really took her time around class to show us the way. Would love an intermediate sesh. Thank you for a lovely evening. Highly recommend this class! Xx

Dayana Nedic • Jul 2020

Such a fun workshop! Bec’s instructions were easy to follow and she really encouraged us to be creative and free with how we made our weaving - it wasn’t overly structured. Really appreciated all the materials we were given to take home. Can’t wait to make another one! Highly recommend x

Teacher was very good with her technique and the piece she made . Would be helpful to have a handout on technique and “how to “for reference at a later date .

The cost was a little on the high side And would have been more reasonable at $150

After not having done a workshop in years, this was really enjoyable, plus helped I was interested in the task. I loved Daisy’s approach, as she was very skilful in the art of Modern Kintsugi and through great guidance we were able to follow her lead and create beautiful pieces. Was very relaxed and mediative and would highly recommend doing this workshop.

Anna Mischke • Jun 2020

Tina was a fantastic teacher and the WorkShop space was lovely. Not only was I able to get my hands on some clay - but I learned some basics that will help greatly as I continue my exploration into the world of ceramics.

She was completely flexible with the subject and I came away with a painting I was happy with - I’m my worst critic but for a 3 hour effort I’m thrilled and have a good base to start from on my own. Thank you

Conrad Coumaros • Jun 2020

Both of us hade fun and the teacher was great. Handled social distancing well too.

Jane Gauci • Jun 2020

We really enjoyed it and learnt a lot. We made some lovely products. The only thing that I will say was that I felt a bit pushed for time. I would have liked to have a bit of a chance to fix what I was making but I felt like I was scrambling and I didn't get to use up all the clay. We were rushed. Otherwise I would love to do it again. The teacher explained techniques well.

Caitriona Dempsey • Jun 2020

Caity was friendly and taught the class well. I liked how she just taught us the basics and then let us play around and come up with our own things. It would be good to also get an electronic copy of the booklet that was provided during the workshop next time.

I liked the pace. Teacher was friendly and gave us a quick demo for each section so most of the time we could practice ourselves.

Kelcie Herrmann • Jun 2020

Loved this workshop with Daisy Cooper who is such delight and a wonderful teacher! Very generous with her time and knowledge and she helped each person with advice or hands on assistance as they needed. The workshop space is great too. Beautifully lit with lovely people at the door and a cute puppers who greeted each person - the perfect way to start a Sunday. I look forward to coming back for other classes!

Tina was fantastic at explaining the basics of pottery. Can’t wait to keep learning in the future!

Sara Irwin • Jun 2020

As dog person I loved the dog friendly space. Music , plants and heaters all made a wonderful venue.

Materials all fine . I would love to see a wheel beginner day at the studio.

Tina was lovely friendly, sweet , talented and there for advice if needed.

My only suggestion I would love to drink tea , coffee or even a cheeky wine before or during class . Just a thought.

Will be back

What a lovely crafternoon! Sheri’s teaching style was informative and engaging, so when it came to working on our own pieces it seemed very straightforward. The hardest part was choosing the colours.

Elena Galiabovitch • Jun 2020

Fun class, I could really see that you wanted everyone to experience the love for clay that you have and to enjoy themselves and learn.

Shenali Fernando • Jun 2020

Really enjoyed the class. Teacher was excellent. Would have been nice to have a bit more time (potentially restricted due to covid so understandable)

My very first ever art class. It's really worth it if you want to paint and learn some very useful hints and techniques to start you on your way
Lovely funky art space too
Sally is a great painter and teacher
I liked her

Katie Bryan • Jun 2020

The teacher was fantastic. Shared lots of useful information and was super friendly. The class was great value for money. I thought we would make a tiny terrarium but it was a great size. The venue was good. But I would be nervous to go if it is a cold day as I imagine it would be cold. I definitely want to do another class.

Kimberly Law • Jun 2020

If i could give it more stars I would, i highly recommend this class its so much fun! Sally is an amazing artist and a great teacher.

Jessica Greene • Jun 2020

So much fun. The teacher was very well informed and made the workshop a lot of fun. I love that I come out with a product as well as knowledge in how to make a terrarium outside of the class too.

Melanie Young • Jun 2020

This was a great class and priced really well given you can buy a pre-made terrarium for the same price. Teacher was great - really friendly, explained things well and was happy to come around and answer any questions we had. I loved that they have little trinkets and toys you can include in your terrarium (I went with an African safari theme with some cute plastic animals).

Workshop has moved to a new venue in Redfern and it's really great (it's also much much warmer than the last place which is great as we did the class during winter). The teacher was happy for us to stay around until we'd finished the terrarium (so even though the class is 1 hour it's really not - we were there for quite awhile).

Martina Fuchs • Jun 2020

Good teaching, very informative. Very covid cautious. Safe and welcoming environment. Trying to reach the word limit.

Nathanael Hughes • Jun 2020

Peter was helpful in showing us the basics with mig welding and encourages hands on learning. He is a relaxed and interesting person taking any stress out of learning. This was a great class for beginners and everyone left better at welding than when they started.

Lucy Chang • Jun 2020

Fun way to celebrate a birthday! Chester is a superb teacher approachable, obliging and patient. Brilliant that all the materials are included and we each have something beautiful to remind us of a memorable day

Jackie Ashby • Jun 2020

Scott Kirkwood • Jun 2020

Great introduction class for beginners, teacher was very helpful, all the right equipment provided. Recommend

Peter Kearns • Jun 2020

Peter interacted with everyone
Good knowledge and his experience in welding was clear to see
Spoke to us at our level so ease of learning was great
He encouraged feedback from us at our introduction meet n greet and throughout the course
Peter did a great job
The dividing small screens are too low because when the guys next to our bench were welding we could not start until they stopped
Overall though very satisfied with course and now confident to practice at home with my machine

Vivian Wielens • Apr 2020

We participated on this workshop with three ladies and we enjoyed it a lot! Daisy was very easy going and helpful to make ourselves great pots! It was more difficult than we thought. We almost ran out of time, but Daisy did everything she could to make everyone succeed and to make sure everyone left with a good feeling about their creations.

Luke Dorman • Apr 2020

Tina provided an incredibly friendly environment where we could all dig our hands in some clay with zero judgment and truly bring out our creative side (the sangria helped too ) , can’t wait to see the finished projects! Thanks so much Tina

Peter Moody • Mar 2020

Great class, well adapted to social distancing requirements. Shame the projector/camera didn't work consistently but the teacher adapted well.

Had a fantastic time at the Shibori class on Sunday. Jo is a very patient teacher who taught us many different techniques. Lot of space and a whole table for each person, Jo gave us material and a scarf each and you could also bring a few cotton items yourself to dye. Great to have an afternoon crafting and forget about everything that’s happening in the world for a few hours, Thank you Jo
Kind regards
Julie and Lucy

We practiced painting 3 watercolour pieces- galaxy, leaf and our own design from an inspiration photo we like using the techniques taught to us. My favorite technique was the lifting and just learning the brush stokes and colours. The time went by very quick- had fun. The Screen used in class was very helpful and modern use of technology in the art space to help magnify what the teacher demonstrated instead of us crowding around her to see her.

Siobhan Pynt • Mar 2020

Tina was a great teacher, very patient and encouraging, loved her style which was laid back but still showed her passion for what she does, I would definitely recommend this class and even come back and do another one!

Moana Quiatol • Mar 2020

I had a great time at Katrina's workshop over the week end. Katrina is an enthusiastic, welcoming and passionate instructor who gave us a chance to discover more about Australian native bees! I did find the workshop very interesting and eye opening. Looking forward to seeing them all in nature now.

Elspeth Higgs • Mar 2020

Thoroughly recommend this class. Tina is a delight and so knowledgable and caters to all levels of experience. Delicious sangria and Reggie the adorable dog made it even better. 10/10!

Christine Bainbridge • Mar 2020

Valerie's and Joanne's class was fun and very educational.
The class was small (8 people) and the Woodsters venue was quiet, informal and easy to park near.
I particularly liked that the ladies focused solely on no and low sugar jams and were happy to answer questions.
I also loved that we were able to taste the jam that was made.
Perhaps in future classes, they could provide a selection of pre-made jams and preserves for tasting, as we only got to try one flavour. Just a thought.
Thanks Valerie and Joanne for sharing your extensive knowledge.

The boozy mixed media class was fantastic . Vanessa was so lovely to talk to and so helpful. There was no pressure to be an ‘artist’ but just to have some fun. I took away so many simple and fun ideas that I will use in my classroom

Marcus Fowler • Mar 2020

This class was terrific. Sally Ann was lovely and smart and funny, and she turned two highly self-critical people into true believers. This was the first time I enjoyed painting. Would visit again in a heartbeat.

Stephanie Bonel • Mar 2020

Love that’s it’s accessible and easy to be guided through because I know nothing about making jewellery.

Daisy was very friendly. She demonstrated the techniques well and gave everyone equal amounts of attention. Materials were good, clay was very soft, and I thoroughly enjoyed painting with the slip colours and patterns. Social distancing between the seats was a plus. Would highly recommend the class.

Nancy Tran • Mar 2020

Super fun and relaxing class. Daisy helped everyone to make some pretty good looking pieces, looking forward to picking up mine!

Vicky McPherson • Mar 2020

Our teacher was fabulous spending just the right amount of time exposing a few simple techniques to get us going, before turning up the music & settling us to it! She spent the whole lesson visiting each person supporting them in what they were trying to achieve. She was encouraging & supporting the splash Ning how to get the very best from what we were doing.
I had a blast!

Mia Weight • Mar 2020

Our teacher was amazing, very informative and brilliant at what she does. The class itself was very good value for money, considering all of the time and work that Vanessa puts in to get all of our ceramics finished. The quality of the product was also very good. The space was a great size and I’m really excited to see how our serving-ware turns out! Definitely recommend this workshop.

Class was good, and picked up a few good tips and insights from James. I think James didn’t account for the different levels of skills in the class, so there was a lot of time spent on tech issues. Maybe make sure everyone comes prep if you do another workshop!

Jennifer Mattiussi • Mar 2020

Phil was a great teacher and he had the additional responsibility of making sure we were protected from the Coronavirus risks with additional gloves and masks.
The steps taken were clearly explained and we left with a good basic knowledge of how to weld.
I would recommend this course.

Lee Smith • Mar 2020

Thank you for a fabulous workshop!
I had a baller for sure!
will keep practicing

Sandra Barratt • Mar 2020

Rhys Gilbert • Mar 2020

Had a great Day with Gaston and Emil lots of enthusiasm and knowledge passed on. Arrived with a honest amount of pre course skill left with lots more. would love to attend some more advanced classes in the future if these guys choose to run any.

Mark Barratt • Mar 2020

Phil was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. He was always encouraging and helpful.

Eva Soodi • Mar 2020

Really fun class and learned heaps of new techniques. Great for beginners. Best part was getting to draw own masterpiece at the very end.

Alice Kellehear • Mar 2020

James is skilled and knowledgeable and the equipment worked well (wifi was maybe a bit iffy). I learned heaps about photoshop and techniques for creating/finishing digital art. Thanks!

Emilie Os • Mar 2020

This class was a great first introduction to digital illustration, processes and techniques. James generously shared his personal tips, tricks and answered all our questions. I would recommend this to anyone thinking of dipping their toe in digital illustration as it was worth it and I left feeling inspired!

Barney Solomon • Mar 2020

I took the class to help me decide if welding was something I would like to know. Phil as an instructor has enormous amounts of knowledge and enthusiasm for teaching his class. All materials were supplied as well as welding masks and gloves. The instruction was exactly what I was looking for to help me decide if I wanted to invest in a machine. I did buy a machine and have since effectively made enough repairs to cover my outlay.
If I'd just purchased a machine without this class there is no way I'd be able to repair what I have. This class was excellent value. Thank you Phil and the team!

Great class, fantastic and very approachable instructors and a relaxed atmosphere. Everyone finished their lino cuts and did printing in the time frame. Would highly recommend!

Stephanie Burnett • Mar 2020

I thought that Chris and Claudia from Grey Hand Press were fabulous. They carefully and easily explained what and how to do each step, from the design/drawing to the WHS of cutting right through to how to ink and print your piece to get an effective look.

They provided all the tools and materials that you needed to achieve your final result.

The workspace area was well setup and roomy enough for the group to move around. Having a coffee shop out the front really helps as well.

I would recommend their workshop to anyone and will be looking into other workshops that they run.

Thank you so much.

Thomas Hateley • Mar 2020

New venue is great, although pretty warm (and the fan is pretty hardcore!)
Jess was really good - quite helpful in the beginning and then left everyone to get on with things which was good, but a reminder halfway about getting things in the oven would have been good as there were LOADS left at the end. Goodie bags were a nice touch I'd definitely recommend the workshop to others!

Adrian Onofrio • Mar 2020

We made lots of earrings which was great! The teacher provided some great insights and tips, and was available at certain points to provide hands on assistance. Largely we were self-independent and able to express our creativity as we wanted through designs, colours and patterns. Location was fun and had some food available.

Danielle Gordon • Mar 2020

Had such a great time My candles weren’t great (operator fault) but the class was extremely enjoyable. Teacher was very patient and kind and I will certainly be looking to do more of her workshops

Sheree was a great instructor! She was very friendly, funny and knowledgeable which made for a great morning of bead making. The class had all the equipment and clays you could have needed and I was able to make a few pieces of jewellery during that time which also meant the session was great value for money. I left the class feeling inspired to create more polymer clay creations and would recommend the session to anyone interested in this style of jewellery.

Leanne Russell • Mar 2020

What a brilliant class. Lots of tips and tricks, and all the equipment needed to bring your ideas to life. Sheree is an hilarious and talented teacher, couldn’t ask for better.

Ann Place • Mar 2020

What a lovely relaxing, fun way to spend a Sunday morning. The class was very well organised with a very talented and knowledgeable teacher. Sheree was very easy to listen too and kept us laughing and inspired, I can’t wait to start creating.

Hollie Dawes • Mar 2020

Sheree’s polymer clay classes are always fun and great value for money. Having the wonderful Cody from Blackbird & Violet there too meant an extra pair of expert hands to help. Huge selection of clays to choose from and a goodie box of things to take home. Would definitely recommend!

The class was great. I really enjoyed it - it moved along quickly and smoothly and Brooke our teacher was great - she was friendly helpful and passionate about her classes. The supplies were lovely and we had a nice selection of colours and oils to choose from. I had a fun time and enjoyed my time. It was the second class I had done there.
It was just such a humid day, and wax did not set as quickly as hoped, but can't help the weather right. More time for chatting and getting to know the other ladies.

SO GOOD. Daisy was amazing. She was very cute and lovely and made everyone feel like they were doing a great job in an honest way. The materials were great :) it was unfortunate that the coronavirus delayed the takeaway materials but daisy explained everything to us :) Great class, I will definitely use this again. Great workshop, so open, well lit and beautiful and there was a dog there which was my favourite. Thankyouuu

Always such a good time at Sheree’s Polymer Clay Classes! Learn so much to take away and try. Many goodies included and lovely to network with likeminded makers with just as much enthusiasm. Sheree is positive and passionate about what she does, and it is always a pleasure to learn from her. Thank you!

Maddy Quinn • Mar 2020

The sourdough baking class was great! Jess was really good at showing us the ropes, and we have come home with all we need to start making some delicious sourdough.

A wealth of information to go home a start creating.
Loved this class

Jenny Collorafici • Mar 2020

Stephen was really great teacher - he was very relaxed & created an encouraging environment where we all felt inspired to let out inner child out & use our fingers as brushes. After doing 2 paintings, we wished we could have had more time.
The space was amazing - plenty of room and all materials & WINE were provided so we didn't have to organise much ourselves.
Would love to do this again & it's perfect for a team bonding activity!

Katrina Carling • Mar 2020

I thoroughly enjoyed Daisy’s classshe was thorough, genuinely helpful and very knowledgeable. A great introduction to the skill, which now takes practice to perfect.

The teacher and content were very good. I felt the class was too short though - the content really needed more time.

Louise Francis • Mar 2020

Sheree is extremely generous with her knowledge and having additional helpers in the room is like 3 brains for price on 1! Class size isn’t an issue, you get get as much help as you need. Would be useful to research colours and patterns you like ahead of class, but remain open to new ideas on the day. Happily go to more!

Sheree was friendly, down to earth and engaging. The workshop was very informative and hands on with lots of products at our disposal to let our creativity flow. This was my first attempt at playing with polyer clay and with the guidance of the teachers, I produced 4 pairs of earrings that I will actually wear woohoo. I really enjoyed the workshop.

Jess the teacher was very knowledgeable about all aspects of fermentation. She gave us some great, real-world tips for how to ferment at home. Taking home our first SCOBY with all the knowledge to make our own kick-ass kombucha in 14 days was really cool and I can't wait to see how it turns out.

Leo Rhodes • Feb 2020

Alex is an unbelievably talented and special artist who also happens to be a gifted teacher. Patient, passionate and humble, he made sure to give everyone lots of help, time and help.
For a 6-hour class, you learn a lot and everyone made beautiful sculptures, unique but all fantastic.
I would highly recommend Alex. 5-stars all round!

Salad C • Feb 2020

This is one of the best craft courses I’ve taken. Charlotte is a fantastic teacher and is very supportive throughout the class.

The facilitators were friendly and showed some inspiring examples to spark ideas. Their time management was good too. The venue was well-lit – the room was quite warm though. The materials supplied were great and lots of them so nobody needed to scramble for them!

von Dekker • Feb 2020

The Class was well organized - but I was disappointed that the Teachers basically sat and did a collage while it was happening.

I expected them to put more time into explaining the Art of Collage - there was a very quick general intro which I could have done with a quick google search. I would like to know why they do what they do? How do they like to work. Why? Break downs of work they have done.

Extra tools would have helped. Scissors ,Paper ,Books & Glue was all they supplied.

Teachers chatting with people more during the class would make for a much more engaging experience.

Jenna Zhu • Feb 2020

The teacher was very patient and helpful showing a variety of techniques. Made for a very enjoyable class and would recommend and visit again for sure.

Michael Chippendale • Feb 2020

Bronwyn Shipway • Feb 2020

A fun day to spent playing with clay! The teacher was helpful, attentive and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend this class as an introduction to sculpture.

Skye Gardiner • Feb 2020

I thought it was great value for money. The time flew by as there was so much to do and take in.
Everyone was encouraged to speak up and join in. It was an inclusive and fun group of people.
The room was great and I was lucky I had a fan at my back. Not sure I’d do a day class at the height of summer but barring that it was a nice space.
The instructor was lovely and did a cool mini reading for everyone at the end. My take home crystal was pretty funky too.

Zoe Moreton • Feb 2020

The cut and paste session was very relaxed. Great amount of materials to create and very chilled vibe. The three hours went so fast.

Naomi Cheetham • Feb 2020

The structure provided made this class worthwhile. It was helpful to look up now and then at the slides that showed examples.

Andrea Hayward • Feb 2020

Great teacher and enjoyed the class. Charlotte inspired us to pursue the craft even further

Alexandra Karnasopoulos • Feb 2020

Instructors were fantastic and such amazing artists too. The examples and ideas were inspiring and the books/magazines and materials were brilliant; such a variety.
What a great space.
I could have done with a little more light for the finer cutting but I think that’s just my old eyes ;)
I think a slightly smaller class would have been good - just for a little extra space.

Jean Burke • Feb 2020

The workshop had a great balance of mini-teaching about the history of collage and collage artists, together with making 3 collage artworks. Each took half an hour or an hour, with guidance provided by enthusiastic and knowledgeable teachers. We were supplied with 3 A4 papers and scissors to use. I got into the flow so the time went fast,

Annaliese Legge • Feb 2020

My partner and I had a great time today at the Sydney Collage Society’s beginners collage workshop. They had plenty of material to work with and 3 collage exercises to complete, plus plenty of examples to inspire us. Only complaint is the lack of cutting tools - only a set of old scissors were provided. A blade would’ve been good too. (Maybe bring your own?).
We’ll be back for the advanced class. Thanks again!

Diana Marshall • Feb 2020

Charlotte ran a friendly and efficient workshop in which everyone achieved the goal of making a Rafia bag. Timing was perfect and workshop was well resourced. Thanks for your dedication, Charlotte.

The class was a great intro into screenprinting and I barely noticed how quickly the time went. Kitty is a great teacher, was constantly moving around the class to give everyone pointers. Would be good to see a follow up session (e.g. intermediate/advanced classes) to build on the skills learnt in this initial session.

Helen Greenhalgh • Feb 2020

Kitty Cardwell is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher of screen printing. We learned the basics of the art from her and were able to produce our, or at least my,first screen print. All necessary materials were supplied and it was a fun group of people attending and definitely good value. Thanks

Natalie is very knowledgeable in the areas of psychic ability, intuition and soul guided teaching. We participated in plenty of interactive activities to build our skills. It was well worth the money spent.

My main instrument is classical guitar, however this class was extremely beneficial for learning different rhythms, and how to keep time properly.

Now I want to go out and get a djembe of my own!

Christian Carter • Feb 2020

The welding workshop was awesome.

It was great just to have a turn to join to bits of metal together. Without sitting through 12 months of metallurgy theory and electrical classes.

Will be buying my own welding kits shortly so I can practice.

It was a great introduction.

Alice Fu • Feb 2020

Great fun. Good hands on session for learning and love how the teacher came up with little chants to learn the beats easier. You don’t even think about it and you are learning. He made quite a lots jokes as well, pretty funny guy.

Ben Faul • Feb 2020

I really enjoyed the class. The only thing that could be improved is maybe a bit more time. The end was a bit rushed and so the teacher didnt get a chance to get around to everyone. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wanted to learn welding!

Vidhu Sudhindran • Feb 2020

Tom was a lot of fun. Ukeleles provided were good and the location was good as well.

I surprised my girlfriend for Valentines Day and thought Tipsy Terrarium would be a different yet experimental class to attend. The process was enthralling and we were given a deep insight into how these little plants function. The teacher was insightful, knowledgeable and made the whole class interactive plus we had beers by our side throughout the 2 hour class so who is going to argue with that!
Highly recommend this class!

Angela Mikac • Feb 2020

Georgia was a fantastic presenter, and really achieved creating a safe space for conversation around this often 'taboo' subject. The workshop really offered a sense of community, and got us to ask ourselves a lot of questions many of us hadnt thought about before. Initially I had thought we'd learn a bit more about mindfulness in the context of orgasm, however what we did discuss and cover was very valuable. Definitely an interesting and informative way to spend my Friday night, would totally recommend it to my friends.

Kaine McCallum • Feb 2020

The teacher was fantastic,
I've never been one to enjoy activities like this
and it was a surprise that my partner had planned for Valentines day.

By the end I was thoroughly happy with the experience and would recommend to friends and family.

Kitty Robertson • Feb 2020

The perfect intro class to terrarium making. Teacher was super knowledgeable and explained things so they were easy to understand. All the info about the history of terrariums, why we make them that way and how to care for them, even where to put them in your home. There were heaps of different plants and decorations to choose from and my terrarium looked great. Would highly recommend as a solo activity, with a partner or with friends!

Traci Milner • Feb 2020

I think for the amount of money i paid for the workshop the plants could have been abit more substantial and more interesting than the small assorted ferns provided. That is my only review on the workshop. The teacher was good she was quirky, supplies were ok not great but ok. Venue was good. Parking was good. Macrame was good enjoyed that the most.

Naomi Eichenlaub • Feb 2020

Great venue, great teacher, nice relaxed environment. Thanks for a lovely workshop with a super product!

Zerrin Koroglu • Feb 2020

I would do this class again

Zerrin Koroglu • Feb 2020

Marianna Drapaniotis • Feb 2020

The speaker set up a safe space for open conversation about women’s sexuality. By the end of the class, any tensions had eased up and everyone felt more comfortable to contribute to the discussion and ask questions!
There were pens and paper provided to take down notes.
What I really loved was the mindfulness practice at the start to relax our bodies and get us ready to talk about what is usually a difficult topic.
I loved that the speaker incorporated her own life experiences as examples. I would definitely recommend this workshop to anyone curious to learn more on women’s sexuality and I hope to attend more workshops like this in the future!

Peta Newbold • Feb 2020

The teacher was engaging and knowledgeable and I gained some helpful insights. I’m undecided about the ethics of charging participants for what was essentially an opportunity to market her products to a captive audience though. What I do know for certain is that the seating was hideously uncomfortable and inadequate for the length of this session.

Betty Karikis • Feb 2020

So much fun! Loved every moment and excited to see the final pieces we created!

Emma Okeeffe • Feb 2020

Great space, great warm teacher, learnt lots and will be back for more workshops.

Daisy was a lovely teacher who explained the various techniques clearly and easily. She was very friendly and made everyone feel comfortable asking for help. I'm very excited to get my mug and planter back once they are fired and glazed :)

Gemma Cavoli • Feb 2020

The only part that might need rethinking is the demonstrations; I felt these went too quickly for me to integrate the lessons. Apart from that, awesome class.

Kathryn Roberts • Feb 2020

Excellent class - clear instructions, quality materials and held in a good space. I now have a set of three beautiful resin bangles, and the knowledge to create more if I wish.

Judi Green • Feb 2020

This was a very helpful beginner’s class. It included techniques to help with some basic drawing and shading skills. The progression through the technique exercises was clear and achievable. There was also an opportunity to start your own drawing. As an absolute beginner I appreciated the structure and information in the class.

Leanne Stephenson • Feb 2020

Jacinth Nolan • Feb 2020

Tina was a great teacher, very enthusiastic & supportive - happy to explain theory or discuss ideas. Can't wait to see how our things turn out!

Andrew Yin • Feb 2020

Very engaging, not only learning the bookbinding aspect but also some of the history and theory behind different styles. All materials provided with a range of options to personalise the books was nice. Timing was a little tight for me as i was slower in making the books but michrlle had planned well to accommodate those who were faster so no one was waiting for others to finish, she always had something more that people could be working on.
Overall, a lot of fun

Matt Maida • Feb 2020

I enjoyed the class — Michelle is a great instructor and she was funny, insightful and supportive. She has a lot of knowledge and experience to offer. The class introduced me to many new tools and techniques that I will absolutely use in the future. It was a little hard to keep up with the class’ pace, though, and a result I didn’t get to learn all four of the intended binding techniques. But it is great that we get all the notes from the class to use at home, and I look forward to making many more books thanks to what I’ve learnt from this class.

Helen Cutajar • Feb 2020

Loved the workshop, lots of opportunities to ask questions, plenty of information and just a really cool experience

Teacher was very helpful. Large range of materials to choose from. Was overwhelmed at how supportive and inclusive teacher n other ladies were with my 10 year old grandson. He loves to weave. He said the class was awesome, he learned new techniques and wants me to take him again. I felt the course was a bit costly.

Emma Priddy • Feb 2020

Fiona Snell • Feb 2020

The location was easy to find and a great space. Simon was awesome and made everyone feel at ease. His explanation and demonstrations were easy to understand and follow.
Everything was supplied for the class and we were shown techniques for each.
I personally found the ink wash part of the class awesome and left with a confidence I never had with this medium. I also left with some great warm up activities to prepare me for a drawing session.
I highly recommend attending one of Simons classes.

Nicole Gillespie • Feb 2020

This was a great birthday present with three generations (Grandma, Mum and Daughter) participating in the class.
The teacher was gracious, talented and considerate.
The only negative was it was a super hot night which was a little uncomfortable in the warehouse venue.

Loved this class. A great beginners class, with sincere encouragement from Sally. Started off with some basics but built up quickly to paint something that I'm quite proud of. Would recommend to anyone trying out with painting.

Eleonora Feletto • Jan 2020

The class was a great introduction to tarot and Psychic Sarah was an excellent instructor. She was thoughtful and helpful but also gave us space to bring our own ideas and interpretations to the class. Thank you Sarah.

Sophie Michieletto • Jan 2020

Practical hands on class, with good practical and experienced support. Class was well structured, particularly the use of tastings to highlight what we were hoping to achieve.
No hard and fast rules, and the relaxed presentation style made the information easy to take in.
Teachers were comfortable with the large group, and worked well as a team.

Carolyn Isdale • Jan 2020

I enjoyed the pickling class, and gleaned a lot of information from the two knowledgable ladies.
It may be a new hobby in my retirement.

Virginia Swanton • Jan 2020

Roz is a great instructor, providing clear demonstrations of each stage and technique used. We left with our basket complete (or almost) and new skills. All materials were provided and we were able to take home some extra to finish our basket. The venue was easy to find and spacious. I’d be keen to do another course to learn more.

Kate Starke • Jan 2020

Teacher was engaging, held space for us in a really generous, confident and safe way.

Content was engaging and able to be applied and taken away to real life situations.

A great workshop and evening.

Donna Taylor • Jan 2020

Class size was bigger than I thought. Perhaps would have been better with the use of a projector instead of having to keep going to the desk to watch instructor.

Vanessa was very clear in her instructions and we moved through all of the beginners strokes with enough time to practice. I felt that I improved a lot in only two hours. Would definitely recommend

Manraaj Sidhu • Jan 2020

This was a great experience that really increased my confidence at brush lettering. I was very well supported and encouraged, despite being quite bad (definitely my fault, not the teacher's)! We basically learnt the basic strokes of brush lettering as well as how to put this together to make letters and then how to make words. Great for any novice in brush lettering. Thank you for the experience!

Ciaran Mulkeen • Jan 2020

Kim McGuire • Jan 2020

Terrific class! I walked away with a new little succulent ecosystem of my own design. Everything was provided, and the instruction was clear, well-timed and left enough room for creative flair.

Bella taught us not only how to create a terrarium from scratch, but why each material was used and their benefits over other alternatives. I feel more capable of not only building terrarium myself, but in caring for my little succulent babies and helping them to thrive (and propagate).

Great location, easy parking, delicious restaurant option next door for a late dinner with my new plant babies, after class.

Jessica Paino • Jan 2020

Absolutely fantastic succulent terrarium making class! Bella is amazing and so helpful and just the nicest person. So warm and bubbly.
She provided everything we could need and walked us through it all to make beautiful terraniums! Had the best time!
The space is perfect for the classes, I was worried it was going to be really hot as it's been super hot latley but there were fans everywhere and was nice and cool.
Cannot wait to do another class!
Thankyou so much

Absolutely loved this class! Bella is both lovely and very knowledgeable in her field. Her willingness to share tips and even where to buy materials has inspired me to go out do more of these in my spare time. I didn't mind the location but being without aircon on such a hot and humid day did make it a bit uncomfortable. Other than that, 10/10.

Farheen Dossa • Jan 2020

Liana was great! She gave an overview regarding materials, technique and demonstration of how to use watercolours - simple enough for beginners.
We were given two exercises which were both fun, but I felt a bit time poor considering the need to perfect one piece first!
Good class overall :)

Marcella D'Alessandro • Jan 2020

A very enjoyable evening. Lianna was informative, friendly and relaxed. The venue was ideal. The group was larger than I expected, which didn't allow Lianna to get to everyone, but she certainly did her best. Great value for money, but I would be happy to pay a little more and do the class over 3 hours instead.
Thanks Lianna. I have continued my newfound hobby at home as well!

Bernie Pattison • Jan 2020

A great class for beginners, Lianna was a wonderful teacher. A smaller class would have been good for more one on one attention. Will definitely return though. Great value for money.

I’m by no means an artist and the relaxed atmosphere was welcomed! Everything I needed was provided and there were many opportunities to explore different techniques. It was a very humid day but I found the studio comfortable with the large fans. I’ll definitely be back to do other courses, but for now, I have some playing to do with my new skills

Grace Angel • Jan 2020

Very insightful class. Haylee was very knowledgeable and we could take away awesome creations. Finally learnt why I was killing my plants!

Karl Fernando • Jan 2020

We really enjoyed our workshop with Haylee today. She explained the history of terrariums before leading us through the workshop. We were provided with all the required materials to produce some awesome terrariums. Haylee allowed us to take our time and provided us with helpful feedback throughout the session. She was also more than willing to answer other questions about caring for plants in general. Thanks Haylee.

James Davis • Jan 2020

Loved this class! Liana was a fun, knowledgeable and friendly. The class itself was better than expected, lots of time to create our works with easy tips and tricks. Venue was great also. Would recommend this class from those with no “art” experience, people looking for a fun night out and to those with experience with water colours wanting to hone in on more skills.

Venue was super cool and the tables were well spaced. All the tools were great quality too!
Our teacher Liana was so lovely, and even went around the room giving personal advice. I learnt so much!

Sarah Foley • Jan 2020

I found Liana exceptionally experienced in watercolour, which made for a very informative and experiential class! Her encouragement to explore the mediums provided and have courage to attempt her guided exercises really helped my confidence in the watercolour workshop.
Venue is fantastic, with lots of space, light and a creative ambiance (and the most adorable welcome host I’ve ever met- cute puppy!)
Thankyou so much for opening up a whole new world of watercolour for me

Great class - great teacher - Stephen was very laid back and so were we! Very cathartic and really relaxing thing to do after a long hard day at workwould do it again and again :-)

Chelsea Evans • Jan 2020

This was a great class.
The venue was good, an exceptionally humid evening with no air-conditioning. I'd advise bringing a cold drink to keep you cool in the summer.
I did like the materials, I would maybe have gone with some more neutral colours but having the variety of pinks was fun for our class. And the paper daisies were gorgeous. The amount of materials was amazing - even got to make a little dried flower bouqet to take home :)
I learnt a great deal about how each flower takes to get dried and about the natural dyes that were used to make the colours. Was quite fascinating.

This class was excellent. My mum and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great bonding time. Penny the teacher was extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Karina Siucho • Jan 2020

Penny was very friendly and explained in detail the benefits of essential oils and natural products.
The class was very easy to follow and I’m very confident to be able to replicate it at home, I can’t wait to try different oils, colour combinations and shapes of bath bombs!

Tathra Pitson • Jan 2020

Such a lovely night! I learnt lots and Penny was so kind and enthusiastic - happy to answer questions that weren’t bath bomb related. Take-homes were very generous as well. Thank you so much!

Really great class. Loads of tips and tricks and enough time to ask questions. Also liked that there were plants at the venue were we could look at examples of various issues.

Emma Haslip • Jan 2020

What a great way to spend an afternoon. Tina is a fantastic teacher, encouraging us to leave our anxieties at the door and guiding us through the creative process to make some cool hand built ceramics. If all else fails turn it into a plant palace!

Lisa Reynolds • Jan 2020

A great night of creativity and learning new skills. Both tutors were helpful and very knowledgeable, sharing tips that we could take away with us to continue exploring the art of linocut. I was glad to be able to bring home a piece that I created during the workshop but also something that I can continue to work on and and see it evolve. Thank you!

Leon Clarke • Jan 2020

A great class! Hayley did an excellent job of explaining things and ensuring everyone was kept occupied throughout the workshop. I’m very proud of my new belt!

Hepke Poutsma • Jan 2020

Very knowledgeable but at time lost his train of thoughts making the point he wanted to make come across confusing. Passionate and experienced.
He would be brilliant rather than good if he can get more structured and to the point in his explanations.
Enjoyed it and feel confident in starting welding.
When location changes, send out an email with the change! Arrived late because of it and that is no good for anybody.

Really enjoyed learning new skills with Ainsley that I was able to take home and continue to use. Ainsley was a great teacher, I've followed her work for a while and she didn't disappoint, it was really nice to meet her and the rest of the workshop group too.

Will Miranda • Jan 2020

Excellent class, clear effective communication by both teachers. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Wayne Farrugia • Jan 2020

The course was great and Phil was very knowledgeable. Maybe in the future everyone could have their own welder to practice on.

Sarah Bishop • Jan 2020

I had such a great time at this workshop! Our instructor Emilie was fantastic. Really knowledgeable, and had lots of tips and tricks. It was awesome that all the materials were supplied so I didn't have to worry about bringing anything with me. The small class size allowed lots of interaction with the other participants. The WorkShop venue was very cool. Really versatile and worked well for this particular workshop. I definitely feel like I got good bang for my buck!

Chris Giust • Jan 2020

The Lino printing class was EXCELLENT! Right mix of instruction before learning through experience. Chris and Claudia were available for consultation and I was able to print off several prints on different paper. Great value for money - wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and can’t wait to sign up for another class

Emmanuelle Holmes • Jan 2020

Teachers were lovely and knowledgeable
Space was a bit hot without air con
I created some nice linocut prints I’m happy with

Natalie Grant • Jan 2020

Really clear, explicit instruction, plenty of time to carve and print. They were both very friendly and approachable. Great class! Also loved the history of printmaking while we were cutting :)
Thank you!

Bruce McMillan • Jan 2020

Phil is very knowledgeable about welding. I have reasonable theoretical knowledge and it was great to finally have a chance to try electric arc (stick) and gasless MIG welding. Fantastic!

William Rock • Jan 2020

Teacher was very knowledgeable. However the class was at a different location than listed in the confirmation email and no contact was made to let anyone know the location had changed, apart from a note taped on the roller door of original location. The new location wasn't set-up for this type of class, all students sharing one folding table that moved everytime someone used the metal brush or steel wool. We were all so close together that it made it hard to get anything done.

Kristy Matheson • Jan 2020

Excellent class, venue was good, all materials provided. Teacher was knowledgeable and really helpful die practical tips and advice also appreciated that she was very encouraging of the whole class. Would recommend to others.

Brittany Westley • Jan 2020

This was a great class!the teacher tina was really kind and picked us right up when we lost hope in our creative abilities!

My husband and I did the welding class for something different to learn and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Phil was knowledgeable, interesting and practical and gave individual attention. Great teaching manner. Inspiring.

Alyssa Coombs • Jan 2020

Great class, enjoyed learning the basics of this textile printmaking technique, with a lovely and very helpful teacher.

Betty Hanner • Jan 2020

The class was ‘handmade block stamps’. We drew and carved our own stamp and printed it on a canvas bag to keep. Emilie was an excellent teacher and everyone achieved beautiful results. All materials were provided, instructions were clear and easy to follow and even without any drawing skills, the block print turned out really well. A fun class which would be easy to practise at home.

Sophie Hoffman • Jan 2020

The teacher was organised and professional. The activity worked well. We had everything we needed.

Paul Schof • Jan 2020

Simple to understand instructions and a great range of tools and materials.

It was so nice to leave the class with a belt that I had made and there was even enough time to make a keyring.

Kaila was an incredible and lovely teacher. She taught us everything we needed to know to make some rad pinch pots. No idea was dumb. She supported and encouraged each person’s unique creativity. It brought so much joy to my week. Keen to pursue clay making further and excited to get my pot back when it‘s ready. Xx.

The teacher was wonderful, and the class was in a fun and relaxed environment. The pieces are ready about 4 weeks after you complete the class, as they need to be fired. We can’t wait to see what they look like when finished :)

Great way to spend an evening! We learned how to make pinch pots and add decorations/detail to this. For me it was a fun way to destress after a stressful week at work. I think I've definitely found a new hobby! I can't wait to see how my pieces are after they've been fired in the kiln!

Liz Smith • Jan 2020

Teacher was fantastic. Patient, clear and positive. Venue might have had better lighting for close work.

Sebastian Haviland • Jan 2020

The best kind of teacher; clearly an expert, but with an infectious sense of enthusiasm.

Maria Henriquez • Jan 2020

Loved this class and Roz was a star teacher! I really enjoyed learning such a beautiful art for the first time. It was really nice to break the ice at the beginning and have everyone introduce themselves. The location was really convenient, the price of the workshop was good based on the materials supplied and the inclusion of the plant. Highly recommend the workshop and congratulate Roz on her dedication and skill :)

Colleen Burke • Jan 2020

Roz was a brilliant teacher: patient and kind. She gave individual instruction to match each student's evolving designs. The product we each made in a short space of time was incredible. I felt a tremendous sense of achievement after learning so many knots in an evening and feel that I can modify these to make new designs. I am thrilled to have created Celtic knots. The venue is a very cool warehouse with good parking and PT nearby.

Jade Keogh • Jan 2020

Teacher was super helpful and patient. Very nice space. Well explained. Would recommend for anyone to do.

Soap making.

It was an informative beginners class. The venue was suitable. Very central

This was a great workshop by Bella. I thoroughly enjoyed it and learnt a lot.

Jess Ji • Jan 2020

Casey was really lovely and enthusiastic! Work-shop was a nice chill venue too

The only downside is because of the 1-1 time Casey put aside, I felt like we didn’t learn enough or could’ve progressed further for the class

Karen Seow • Jan 2020

Casey is lovely. The venue is fine. Materials were ok. Not that good value for money considering the class size and amount of personal attention. Could have been run much more efficiently.

Madeleine Slater • Jan 2020

Enjoyed the evening, Ben was prompt and easy to understand. Information was easily deseminated to the group and prompted questions. Understanding the info is somewhat general in nature, Ben was able to tailor the evening to the group. Some really good insights came about. Both my son and I enjoyed the evening.

Charles Arcodia • Jan 2020

Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable.
Perhaps ensure that each lot has enough soil. Well done guys.

Will Cundy • Jan 2020

very enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher, learnt a lot! good combo of didactic and hands-on teaching

Samantha Louis • Jan 2020

I loved this class, the teacher - Caity gave us good direction. She sat with us individually to help with any ideas we brought to the class to make our silver ring, but its also fine if you don't as she came with examples.

It was a hot evening, but there were fans in the work shop and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all during the class.

I enjoyed the time working on my piece and would highly recommend it, plus I get to keep something I created!

Tania • Jan 2020

Houseplant Propagation Class
Bella is an excellent teacher, very engaging and approachable.
Bella has a wealth of knowledge and I could have listened to her all night.
I learnt a lot in this workshop, so many useful tips were shared, as soon as I got home I started putting it into practice.
I’m now feeling more confident about taking care of my indoor plants and really looking forward to attending more workshops run by Bella.
Thank you.

Brendan Gerrard • Jan 2020

The venue was excellent and easy to find. Michelle was very friendly and kindly offered assistance as required. I did find the amount of dried flowers disappointing. Overall a great experience getting out of my comfort zone and learning a new skill.

Eva Paraskevakis • Jan 2020

The hand making clay class with Tina was definitely worth it as we were given 3 hours and lots of very interesting and useful tips from Tina to create whatever we wanted! The tools and clay provided were of a high standard and the work space was also lovely! My partner and I had a great time and can’t wait to collect our pieces and put them to use! We have been inspired to delve more into clay making

Mel Brand • Jan 2020

I have made kombucha before, but never really knew what I was doing. When I booked the class I was worried that I wouldn't receive enough information to satisfy the price, but I was mistaken. Jess was full of so much information. I learnt so much about why and how the process of fermenting works. I came out of the lesson so enthusiastic to start kombucha-ing again! And confident that everything will go smooth.

Safiyyah Ain • Jan 2020

Declan Hovenden • Jan 2020

Claire Morgan • Jan 2020

I really enjoyed this workshop, it made the topic of budgeting really accessable for me and made me feel comfortable about something I'm usually anxious about. Alex was really knowledgable, clear, friendly, non judgemental and super nice. Loved the venue as well, was very well set up. I thought it was excellent value for money and think its great that Alex has made this topic acessable for people who otherwise might not be able/comfortable acessing this information. It's really usefull and empowering.

Emma Dodgson • Jan 2020

Exactly as promised, a simple non-judgemental approach to budgeting that is inclusive of everyone's unique financial situation. Many key lessons that, even if I never get around to implementing them, have changed how I consider my money.

This class was a lot of fun and I learned a lot. Caity has great skills with the wax and was knowledgeable about the casting process. She had a lot of funny stories, too. It’s cool to be able to make your own piece of jewelry. There was plenty of time for me to experiment and make three pieces. I chose two to get casted into silver. You get one piece included in the price of the workshop and you can get an additional piece cast for an extra cost, based on the weight of the piece. It’s really good value!

Caitlin Butler • Dec 2019

An amazing class in a very cool venue. Caity, out teacher, was extremely knowledgable and overall a friendly person! It was great fun and I highly recommend

Dan • Dec 2019

Had a really good time in this class, Daisy is a fantastic teacher and was very good at offering advice and helping resolve my many mishaps. The only thing I wish was there was more paint so that I didn't have to wait for the rest of the class to use it before I could and thus not get a chance to do what I wanted.

Caitlin Ball • Dec 2019

Tina is a great teacher who gave us the freedom to create whilst still teaching us techniques and giving all the guidance we needed to make our ideas come to life! Very cool that I’m just a couple of short hours we were each able to make numerous items. Really recommend this to anyone - clay is so therapeutic and we had an awesome group at the workshop which helped!

I made 3 pieces, looking forward to seeing how they turn out.

Would definitely recommend this class.

I definitely would recommend this class to people new to tea and seasoned tea drinkers!

Fran Frino • Dec 2019

Great class and lovely teacher. The only slight changes I would suggest are a shorter intro, perhaps 15 minutes rather than 30 and Producing a set of five wraps rather than three. Other than that highly recommend.

Melissa Koki • Dec 2019

Kirsty is a lovely person, she shared with us all her knowledge about beeswax wrap. We started by introducing ourselves and talking a little bit about sustainability and the ecological footprint and then we learned how to make beeswax wrap. It was a 2 hours workshop with 9 people, but the time went by very fast.

Adelie Hanly • Dec 2019

Kristy was inspiring, and her passion was shared with us throughout the class.

My wife purchased this workshop for me as part of a Christmas gift, as she knows I have been wanting to get into tattooing for some time. I really enjoyed my experience, and would highly recommend this to anyone who is interested in getting a different perspective on art/design. Most of the people who attended the workshop didn't even have visible tattoos, one of them being a teenager, so I feel like you didn't necessarily even have to be engrossed in tattoo culture to get something valuable out of it. The teacher was very informative and helpful in providing useful techniques with drawing and painting, and was generally a friendly person I could see myself hanging out with. I hope this is something you continue to offer, as I would be more than likely to return.

Chel was super nice and helpful and I learnt how to create traditional tattoo illustrations the right way. Will continue to work on the new skills I now have from doing this work shop :)

Tom was very patient with me and my less than perfect timing and T-Rex techniques. I had a lot of fun and will come back again.

The tattoo class was fun and informative! A lot of topics were touched including stick and poke tattooing, and factors to consider when designing a tattoo, like orientation. Also had the chance to create our own stencil and transfer it to our skin for tattooing. Sprinkles is very experienced and nice and eager to answer questions.

Class was super comprehensive, I had a lot of fun and learned a lot more than I expected. Sprinks is delightful, I'd love to do another class with him - it was basically Ink+Empathy 101.

Gaston the painter was a very good teacher, giving us lots of tuition and tips. He was very informative and spoke in a way that was easy to understand which therefore made the class easy to learn from. At the end of the “hands on” lesson, Gaston critiqued our work in a positive and helpful way.

Great venue. Elisa made us feel comfortable from the beginning.
It was a good balance between Theory and practice.

Elisa was fantastic. A very open soul and wonderful teacher. Both my partner and I got so much out of the class and would recommend it to anyone looking to try that experience.
