Halloween Special Mixed Coffee Incense Making Workshop review by Jeremy Bian - Melbourne


Nicholas Watts




My wife and I did this course together as a birthday gift for her. We both had a great time, the instructor was fantastic; she was enthusiastic and very informative. We both made lots of earrings (I made more) that look impressively professional despite us being total beginners. We loved it and have now bought more materials so we can keep doing this great hobby together.

I received a voucher for this glass as a Christmas gift from my BF. It was a great experience and our teacher, Nick, was the perfect guy for the job.

Thanks for giving us a great experience and day!!!

Went for as a birthday present for a friend and had a great time! Our teacher, Juliet, was incredibly helpful and was very active in helping us. We were also running a bit late and called to let her know and she was so lovely! We got two opportunities to make a vase/dish and got to choose one to be fired in the kiln. Very excited to see how they turn out!!! Good to keep in mind it is not an easy activity  + more

For my birthday, my sister gifted me a private tea blending class with Amy at Crafternoon Tea, and it was an incredible experience! Amy's expertise and enthusiasm made the class fascinating and fun.

I am a bit of a fan of the tv show Blown Away - so for Christmas my husband purchased us this class as a gift. What a gift it was. Our teacher Nick was knowledgeable, friendly and would assist when needed. All of the materials and equipment were included. I truly enjoyed choosing my colours and challenging myself with new skills. We’re already talking about our next class!

Glassblowing and Mosaic class review by Jessica Cocking - Melbourne


Alena Hermanns




I love trying new things, so making my own perfume sounded like a great new thing to try! I didn’t have many expectations as I’m not a huge perfume person or had any idea at all what this would entail. It was such a lovely workshop - very small group and lovely space. Our instructor was so nice and knowledgeable and answered all my questions. We got an extensive introduction and explanation  + more
