Pam Bernau




I received this class as a gift and was initially nervous about completing the garden workshop, however Kathy made it so enjoyable. Her mother in law as assistant was also lfriendly. The class was extremely well organised and Kathy was patient and helpful. She has a lovely friendly manner which made it less daunting. I would definitely gift one of these classes or do the terrarium one next. Thanks  + more

Love the workshop, it was a gift from friends and the best fun. Jenie was a wonderful teacher, she encouraged us to experiment and play with the inks. Her workshop space was amazing and inspiring and I will be back. Thanks Jenie for a fantastic morning.

I can't recommend Simone's screen printing workshop enough! I attended with my mum and sister as their birthday present to me, and we all had the best time! Simone was a great teacher and her lovely studio was the perfect setting for our small group. We left the day with a few lovely examples of our own designs and a new found love for screen printing.

Faye Leetham




My friend and I throughly enjoyed the Peony Rose class. This was my a gift to her for her 70th birthday. The Peonies are beautiful. Jemina is a great teacher, she explained a lot about flower arranging and how to keep the flowers looking fabulous for as long as possible. We will be back to participate in another class. Thanks Jemina for a lovely afternoon. Faye and Helen

Hitomi was a wonderful teacher. The class was well-structured, with every detail thought through and all materials needed provided. The class was a birthday gift for my friend - we both loved learning modern the kitsumi technique and will definitely try it myself at home!

Pottery class review by Juliette Maher - Melbourne


Wendy




I bought a “Paint Your Pet” voucher for a friend’s birthday and obviously one for myself so we could enjoy the session together. We had such a great day and were really pleased with our painting results of our fur babies. Kay, the teacher was very friendly and helpful and obviously skilled as an artist. She painted a demo pic using that as a teaching tool on how you did eyes, nose, etc. The  + more

I got a gift voucher for my birthday and brought a few others to share the experience. The teacher was very helpful. Venue was easy to find & parking was great.

Wheel Throwing Workshop review by Leonie Johnson - Melbourne


Meaghan Keogh




This class was given to me as a gift - I was very unsure what to expect but absolutely loved every minute of it. Hirotmi (please forgive me if my spelling is incorrect!) was so patient and helpful with me. She made sure that I understood every step very clearly before I began to work through it. I highly recommend this class to anyone - even if it is just to learn a bit about Japanese culture.

What a great night! Having recently purchased a smoker I received the class as gift from my wife and kids, ultimately it will benefit them. I ended up going to the class with my wife and 2 other couples, what a great night.

Ella Schena




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

Bianca Kanjo




I was given the session as a birthday gift and it did not disappoint. Ron is a fantastic teacher with a wealth of experience and knowledge. Starting with a flat piece of mild steel we create a great little utility knife in the traditional blacksmith way. Ron teaches us how to shape and fashion a knife using a forge, hammer and anvil, beveling the edge using a blacksmith technique then a belt grinder  + more

Making memories with my mum to last a lifetime. I booked us in for a Mother’s Day girls day out to Bloomin Marvellous with Jem who was such a fantastic teacher.

Bloomin Marvellous is set in a light and airy space with everything you need  + more
