Pottery Wheel Class: Make and Paint Ceramic Plates
Purchased this class as a birthday present for my friend. We both loved the class itself- learning techniques from Bettina and getting creative with shapes and colours. Bettina is patient, friendly and a great teacher. Bettina’s studio is clean, peaceful and was well prepared. I would recommend this class to anyone looking to have a fun and simple pottery class!

Vegan and Gluten Free Japanese Sweets Class
Saikawa-san is an expert in her craft, and she patiently walked us through the techniques and process of creating the Japanese sweets.
Due to the time constraints of the class, we walked through the theory for creating the materials, and also had a demonstration of the preparation of nerikiri, rather than going through the full process of actually preparing the bean paste from the raw materials, butSaikawa-san is an expert in her craft, and she patiently walked us through the techniques and process of creating the Japanese sweets.
Due to the time constraints of the class, we walked through the theory for creating the materials, and also had a demonstration of the preparation of nerikiri, rather than going through the full process of actually preparing the bean paste from the raw materials, but the instructions in the provided sheet were clear and concise.
While canonical wagashi preparation involves the use of a number of specific tools, this class utilised more common tools, focusing on techniques that allow the preparation of wagashi for home cooks.
The workshop was held at the host's home, which has a rather large kitchen area, just right for the number of people in this intimate workshop. Also present were Haru and Aki, who were very cute and enthusiastic dogs.  + more

Simple Leather Card Holder Workshop
I had a great time with Justine on Sunday. Not only was she extremely patient with us but she also made the experience very personable. Each participant was able to choose their own designs from a wide selection and work at their own pace.
Initially I had intended to make the card wallet as a gift but ended up adoring my own so much that I kept it.

Loved the class! Chelsey is warm and generous. Chelsey has created a beautiful and relaxed space for art making. Such a gift for her students to learn in this meditative atmosphere.

Loved the results!

The class was very informative and you learn how to make the two most ordered cocktails. You make the first cocktail, they feed you, and then you make the second one, and they feed you again! The food was good too (tacos, chips, grilled corn etc.). Definitely a good present for someone that loves their cocktails, or just want to learn the basics on how to make them.

Exceptional value for money. We learnt about the history and production process for rum, and then made two cocktails step by step. So smoothly run, exceptional drinks and the plentiful food provided (at two different points in the workshop) was a highlight. This was a birthday present for me and it was such a lovely way to spend the evening. Thanks Brix
