Whether your giftee is a newbie artist or is a keen crafter, help her unleash her creative side with a paint and sip or pottery workshop this Christmas. These hands-on creative experiences not only provide a platform for artistic expression but also make unique gifts for her. Head to our paint and sip classes in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and beyond, where she can pick up a paintbrush, a glass of her favourite beverage and start creating!

Plus, she’ll be able to take home her unique masterpiece as a delightful memento of your thoughtful Christmas gift for her.
If she’s always wanted to try making her own handmade pottery, we have a variety of festive pottery classes in Australia. From wheel throwing to hand building clay to ceramic painting, there’s something for everyone to sink their hands into. Working with clay helps your giftee slow down, take a break from their daily routine and let them find their creative flow during the busy holiday season.
2. Gift her a cooking class she's sure to adore
For the woman who loves to cook (or eat), why not consider a cooking class? From sushi making to baking sourdough bread, there's a culinary workshop suited perfectly to her tastes. It’s one of the best Christmas gift ideas for women who appreciate good food and want to learn new culinary skills. Step inside a warm and lovely kitchen, where she’ll be greeted by her teacher and other like-minded students. Once she is guided through the demonstration, she has plenty of time to put her skills into practice and have fun cooking with her loved ones in the kitchen.
You can even help satisfy her wanderlust through our variety of cultural cooking classes in Australia. Roll sashimi sushi, learn how to fry gyoza dumplings or make fresh homemade pasta from scratch. Whatever you choose, each class will help your special someone learn more about the rich culture and traditions of that country, all through food! By the end of the class, everyone will get to sit down and enjoy the delicious food they’ve made. After all, everything’s better when shared with your favourite people.
3. Treat her to a DIY jewellery making class this Christmas
Jewellery making classes in Australia can be incredibly fulfilling as they allow your giftee to design pieces that reflect her personal style and taste. This makes them ideal personalised Christmas gifts for her—ones she can show off on every occasion! In each class, she will learn different techniques used in jewellery making like beading, wire wrapping, soldering and stone setting. She will understand how to transform precious metals like gold and silver into her own custom ring, necklace, bracelet and much more. The possibilities are endless for creating bespoke pieces that she can cherish forever.
What makes jewellery making classes the best Christmas gifts for her is also the sense of accomplishment she feels when she completes her piece. Creating something from scratch with her own hands and seeing her piece turn out exactly as imagined or even better is an amazing feeling that only comes with our DIY creative experiences.
Nicole Grundy received this silversmithing class from her partner and couldn't rate it highly enough! She shared, "Sarah was a wonderful teacher, she was very helpful and assisted everyone in the group to walk away with pieces of jewellery to keep forever! I received this class as a Christmas present from my partner, we both attended together and thoroughly enjoyed the class. It was a fabulous experience, we will be recommending it to our friends and we will be looking out for more classes to attend in the future!"

4. Help her discover her signature scent with a perfumery class
Perfume making classes have risen in popularity over the years, so it's no wonder they make extraordinary Christmas presents for her. Forget about cliche gift ideas for her such as flowers or chocolates; instead, help her to find her own signature scent. In a perfumery class, she will learn exactly how perfumes are made, from selecting individual notes to blending them into a harmonious symphony that can evoke emotions and memories. With expert guidance, she will learn about top notes, middle notes and base notes—the three critical pillars in perfume making—and how they blend together to create a balanced fragrance.
Think of it as giving her more than just a unique experience, you're giving her knowledge that she can use for years to come. After the class, she could even find her favourite hobby or enjoy this as a side hustle! It's not every day that she gets the chance to create something so personal and meaningful. Plus, these classes often occur in small groups which makes it an excellent opportunity for socialising and spending quality time during Christmas. She'll be able to catch up with friends and family or meet new like-minded people who have the same interest in fragrances.
5. Send her on a relaxing Christmas terrarium making class
Whether she’s a green thumb or not, taking her to a terrarium making class is an amazing Christmas gift for her, where she can relax, unwind and find a deeper appreciation for nature’s beauty. She can learn how to carefully layer sand, rocks and moss, and choose from a variety of unique plants to create her own little garden in a jar. The process is deeply satisfying and meditative—it's like painting with nature’s colours while understanding the delicate balance of plants.
To sum up, our terrarium making classes are definitely one-of-a-kind present ideas this Christmas season! Not only does it offer her something fun and interesting to do during the holiday break but also empowers her with new skills and knowledge. It's a gift that keeps giving, one that nourishes her creativity and passion. So this Christmas, consider giving her a terrarium making class—it may just be one of the best Christmas gifts for her she will receive in 2024!
