On the hunt for unique date night ideas for you and your partner? You can’t go wrong with this clay and sip pottery class with Print Paint Pot in Artarmon.

Unwind and relax with a rum spicing masterclass

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.

Make a mini jungle at a tropical terrarium workshop

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.

The end product will be an adorable rug in a design of her choice, ready to display in any room and admire. 

The beauty of experience presents in Sydney like this one is that your gift recipient could carry on this hobby for years to come. This relaxing and trending DIY craft is sure to inspire her creativity, making it one of the best birthday gifts for her.

Now is the perfect time to give a macaron class as a gift experience for her. This sweet treat has soared in popularity and learning how to make them is one of the most fun things to do in Sydney. 

Your gift receiver will get to go to behind-the-scenes in a Surry Hills macaron shop, where she’ll learn everything she needs to know to recreate these delicious and adorable treats at home. After her two-hour macaron class, she’ll walk away with a complimentary gift bag and everything she needs to whip up these colourful goodies on her own. Perfect for birthday party ideas or Christmas experience gifts, take your loved one to a macron making class this weekend. 

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.

This is one of those special experience gift ideas that you’re not going to want to miss out on yourself. So why not book a couple of experience vouchers so that you can enjoy that gourmet pasta and wine together! These classes make great gift experiences for couples or friends looking to try something new and spend quality time together.
