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 .Well firstly, it was a belated well thought of more than middle age birthday gift from my two children that attended with me.

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. + more

Japanese Kokedama Making Workshop
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!
Alex Zhu
The experience has been extremely lovely. This is our first time getting to know how rings are made and getting involved in hands on experience. Hee Cho was warm, friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend anyone who wants to make a special gift or create an unique memory with your cared one.

Discussion progressed through the basic (but often unknown) smartphone features, many of the 10 aspects of composition and then included many of the skills of enhancement to present a resultant image that would impress any Social Media user. Further comments on control of ISO and exposure settings together with commentary on still life, abstract and landscapes, (in addition to the street portraits and architecture) would enhance the presentation. A session outcome that has certainly changed my 'click and hope' photography to give me the awareness of a better 'click and presentation' After only 3 hrs attached photos from MEL with additional personal photographs from with learnings from this day + more

My husband and I enjoyed this soy candle making workshop at Handmaker’s Factory. This was our Christmas gift for each other. The instructions are clear and easy to understand. It’s good to be able to bring the finished candle projects home and light them up to enjoy it. Nicole is a very good teacher.
Mala Desai
I did the class with my son as a gift for his birthday - he loves all things Italian. The gnocchi recipe was simple and delicious. Enjoyed the class which was practical and the presenter gave great tips and was very approachable too! Best of all the gnocchi was delicious - have recommended the class to all my friends and family - some even who live overseas given they can log in via Zoom!
Qaisara Mohamad
We made soy scented candles and it was a very welcoming and informative private class! My first class with handmaker's factory and with classbento. It really was an amazing experience and ended up being a nice gift which mum appreciates :)
Alexandra Keogh
Purchased this workshop as a birthday present for my teenage daughter. We loved every minute of it and learnt so much! It was lovely to meet Hee Cho. She was very patient & helpful along the way. My daughter and I both walked out at the end of the evening with our own stunning individual rings. Highly recommend this class!

Floristry Workshop: Tall Seasonal Blooms in a Vase
The class was a present and due to lockdowns was deferred twice but a suitable date was found. Relaxed atmosphere; teacher was helpful, parking available . Thoroughly enjoyable.
Ashlee Bellamy
Myself and a friend took part in an abstract painting class on Saturday morning. It was a 30th birthday present to get creative and try something new. On arrival we felt very welcomed and entered a lovely calm and friendly environment. Our teacher was Andrea and she was fantastic! I am definitely not a painter and she made me feel confident in what I was doing and encouraged my ideas and helped me when I was a little stuck. There were so many different paints, colours and utensils to get different layers and texture on our canvas.

I would highly recommend ClassBento to get creative and to try something out of your comfort zone. I am excited to paint again. Thank you! + more

The teacher was very welcoming, knowledgeable, and thorough in explaining the process. They were also very present with everybody throughout the day. Very enjoyable workshop.
Fiona Lerk
The teacher was excellent and very clear all the materials and tools were provided and I made a fabulous ring which was gift wrapped!
David Kidd
My workshop today was a Christmas gift from my husband and I really enjoyed the experience. The time was 10am to 1pm but I didn’t finish my piece until 2.30pm and was not rushed at all which I really appreciated. Merryl’s workspace, materials and facilities are wonderful I plan to attend again.
Erin Bishop
Hand Building with Clay Workshop
Great class for beginners and I’d love to do another. Daisy explained everything up front, and patiently helped us with questions (or fixing any issues!) throughout. The tumbler as a gift was a lovely bonus. Looking forward to seeing how my pieces turn out once they’re glazed and fired.
Christina Vitsentzatos
Nicola was very professional and helpful, and the wax tablets were quite easy to make. Great beginners class for gift making!

I am so thankful its must so exiting real achievement. “ Hi to the Events team, A very big thank you for organising today’s terrarium event. It was the best few hours I’ve had for a few weeks. Life has been challenging as a Carer & then a hospital stay for myself. I feel brighter this morning participating in this fun event. Hayley was excellent & it was lovely having interaction from other carers.

Hayley was excellent & it was lovely having interaction from other carers. Sadly my glass bowl arrived with a break in the side of it , plus broken plant. I enjoyed learning from Hayley today & if it is possible I would love to participate in the plant ball session , if that is ok. I loved seeing what the other ladies had made with their terrariums & I have lots of ideas to follow up on. Like visiting an op shop to source vessels & to involve my grandson in helping to create terrariums for gift making, when we are able to leave the house post Covid Kind thanks for the bright spot of my last few weeks.

Loved it, easy to follow, although a bit tricky at points. I got it as a present for mothers day and in turn for my mum for her mothers day. My mum is now obsessed, haha
