Lanka Andara Hewa




This was a great gift idea for my best friend who loves baking/decorating cakes! She absolutely adored it and our cupcakes came out so beautiful (even my cupcakes and I have zero decorating experience) this is definitely beginner friendly and the teacher was sooo amazing, helpful and gave great tips! Will 100% do another class again!

Nikayla Amiatu




Our teacher was lovely, the workshop was accessible and well paced. I got this for my mum as a birthday present and brought my sister along, we all loved it! So great to have so much creative freedom and take home something we're proud of. Would recommend.

Terrarium Workshop for Beginners review by Nikayla Amiatu - 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.

Jewellery Making class review by Nicholas Watts - Melbourne


Audrey Chong




I was there for a birthday present on hand building. It was a most enjoyable and lovely Sunday morning activity. Rue(hope I spelt the name correctly) is lovely, friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you for a lovely relaxing time. The studio is in a good spot and easily accessible.

Pottery class review by Audrey Chong - Melbourne


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

The class was a gift from my daughters for my birthday ️ An absolutely wonderful experience, something I have always wanted to do for years.

The tea blending class run by Amy was an amazing experience! I bought a private class as a birthday gift for my sister and she loved it! The decor was exquisite, Amy's tea set were beautiful and the selection of teas were fantastic! Amy was very knowledgeable about the history of tea. She was very engaging, friendly and great to listen to. I walked away with my own tea blend, new knowledge of the teas  + more

Tea class review by Sharvada Raju - Melbourne


Will Hams




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.

Floristry class review by Will Hams - 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

Great experience! Would highly recommend as a gift to anyone. You get to see how the gin is made, make your own and end up with a bottle of it at the end!

Natalie Bannister




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. Jem is full of quick wit and funny stories to share but also so very knowledgeable. I wanted to book in for another class before I had even finished the first one. Bloomin Marvellous is set in a light and airy space with everything you need  + more

Janine Regan




I really enjoyed the workshop, which was a gift from my children. Belle is such an energetic and helpful teacher. The venue is really accessible with free parking. The flowers were beautiful, very fresh and plentiful. The class was a lovely way to spend two hours and I proudly took home the gorgeous bouquet I created and wrapped myself.

Floristry class review by Janine Regan - Melbourne


Tony Kopestenski




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. Staff were fantastic, very friendly & helpful. The venue was perfect for this type of function, nice & open & spacious.

Sulna van Wyk




Booked with my sister and mum as a gift for Mother’s Day, from the start the staff made us feel very welcome. We enjoyed a coffee before getting into it. Staff made it fun and entertaining while teaching us the secret to making the best gnocchi. Then we enjoyed a glass of wine served with Gnocchi and got a kit to take home.

Gnocchi Masterclass and Lunch review by Sulna van Wyk - Melbourne


Jess Bickerton




We did this as a Mothers Day gift for all of the Mums in the family. A great catch up over an activity. A range of ages from teens to octogenarians and this suited everyone. We all had the best time. The teaching was exemplary, breaking it down and not leaving anyone behind. This meant we all came away with a piece we were very proud of. I would definitely recommend this class to everyone. We can’t  + more

Pottery class review by Jess Bickerton - Melbourne


Amanda Trinder




The class was an early Mother’s Day gift and my teenagers came as company. We had a great time. We’d never used a potters wheel before and it was great fun. I surprised myself with my creations. The teacher was very helpful with a good demo at the start and was very encouraging.

Wheel Throwing Workshop review by Amanda Trinder - Melbourne


Sharee Fiume




My daughter bought a gift voucher for me for Mother’s Day last year. I took my best friend Millie. We had a wonderful time. A delicious cheese platter and red wine topped off a fun and informative pottery class. We made 2 items, a small bowl and a large bowl. Our teacher was lovely and very talented. I enjoyed it so much that I’m taking my mum there for Mother’s Day.

Pottery class review by Sharee Fiume - Melbourne


Helen Halliday




The teacher, Nikki, was very clear and helpful showing us step by step and assisting where necessary. Her enthusiasm for her painting was catching. The venue was well set up with all the materials provided. Lunch and drinks were provided with ample champagne and sangria as well as tea and coffee. The paella was tasty and there was also soup for those who wanted it. Some of the paintbrushes were well  + more
