Amanda Butteriss




I received a ClassBento gift card as a Christmas present. I’ve never tried candle making before so I thought I’d give it a go. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The teacher was so helpful even a beginner like me went home with a beautiful creation.

Candle Making class review by Amanda Butteriss - Melbourne


Emma Byles




Celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary this was my gift to my husband. History, knowledge, humor and some cracker whiskey. My husband loved it. And I loved that he did. Im not a whiskey drinker, but I found it interesting and the vodka was delicious. Well worth it.

Whisky Distillery Tour and Tasting review by Emma Byles - Melbourne


Ashleigh Hodgson




Ron was a great teacher and showed us exactly what to do, helping us along the way. Was a fun gift for my partner's birthday with the added bonus that we had the class to ourselves. Will definitely be back to make skillets and knives in the future.

Blacksmithing Class for Beginners review by Ashleigh Hodgson - Melbourne


Nikayla Amiatu




I brought this workshop as a gift for my Aunty. We did it together and had a ball! We both walked away feeling inspired and with matching rings we wore instantly! I recommend it and would do it again. The space was clean, organised and had convenient parking. Sarah was patient, skilled and engaging. The facilities were clean and sound sensitivities were accounted for.

Jewellery Making class review by Nikayla Amiatu - 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.

Beginner's Kintsugi Workshop review by Meaghan Keogh - Melbourne

This was a gift from my son. I learn correct cutting and layering of plants. The importance of foliage and hero flowers. How to find the best side, and angle for making the most of my flowers. Lovely teacher, warm cup of tea on a winters day. Perfect.

It was a Mother’s Day gift and a memorable experience with my niece. Tanya is a gorgeous and passionate teacher with practical knowledge to inspire healthy and nutritious vegan cooking at home.

Fluid Art Workshop: Dutch Pouring review by Silva Haladjian - 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

Perfume Making class review by Alena Hermanns - Melbourne


Eden Pearson




Bought this as a gift for Mother’s Day and we both had the best time! Our teacher was so friendly and patient and there was ample time to practice and create what we wanted. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a fun day/night out doing something different. Can’t wait to see the final product!

Mother's Day present given to me by my husband for both of us to attend, but was sick so couldn't go. Instead, my daughter went with me. We both really enjoyed it.
