If you’re looking for more adult-friendly experience gift ideas, this rum spicing workshop is a popular one. Whether you know a rum connoisseur or someone who enjoys a good Piña Colada, this two-hour class is enjoyable for all.
The class is broken down into two parts. For the first half hour or so, your gift recipient will get a full distillery tour of Brix Distillers to learn how rum is made and spiced on a professional level. Then, they’ll have the rest of the class to try their own rum spice concoctions using a variety of different flavours, some classic and some Australian native. As your gift receiver is sampling and perfecting their signature rum, they’ll be able to snack on charcuterie and chat with other rum lovers in the class.
This Sydney experience is a great choice if you’re looking for unique Christmas gift ideas for the rum lover in your life.

This is one of the best things to do in Sydney that anyone can love. It’s easy and relaxing, and at the end of it, your gift receiver will be able to take their own tiny greenhouse home with them. This is a one-and-a-half-hour terrarium workshop in which participants will learn how to create a beautiful miniature ecosystem inside a closed glass jar. All the materials will be provided, and they consist of the best quality elements so that the terrariums look impressive and last for years.
Don’t worry if this is for someone who can’t keep a plant alive - these DIY terrariums are self-contained and take little effort to maintain. The class sizes for these Sydney workshops are small, so everyone gets plenty of feedback and direction to make a stunning terrarium.

Unleash their inner artist at a brush lettering class
Brush lettering and calligraphy are a major trend right now. Brush lettering can take any ordinary card, letter, or sign and make it look stunning and professional. But as impressive as those online videos of brush lettering are, learning how to do it yourself can be tricky.
These beginner brush lettering workshops are the perfect gifts for women who are creative and crafty. Prior experience is not required, as this class is specifically designed to break down the art of brush lettering into more approachable techniques. The course lasts two and a half hours, participants are given their own set of pens and materials and plenty of time to mingle with new friends while they practice their new skills.

These classes make great gift experiences for couples or friends looking to try something new and spend quality time together.
