Christine Smith
Alcohol Ink Class for Beginners
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.
Amanda Croatto
The occasion was a birthday present for one of my daughters from me and another daughter, so we made up the 3 people in the class. Simone was very friendly and welcoming and we all chatted and laughed our way through the class. She was very hands-on and always there to give any assistance or support needed. The venue was great with excellent facilities for the screen printing workshop. Simone suppliedThe occasion was a birthday present for one of my daughters from me and another daughter, so we made up the 3 people in the class. Simone was very friendly and welcoming and we all chatted and laughed our way through the class. She was very hands-on and always there to give any assistance or support needed. The venue was great with excellent facilities for the screen printing workshop. Simone supplied plenty of materials and encouragement and we all created our own stencils and then printed 2-3 pieces of fabric, enough to actually make a couple of things. We thought the class was good value for money as with only three of us Simone was able to give us all a lot of attention and assistance which ensured a successful outcome for us all. We had such a good day, and the birthday girl said it was one of her best presents ever! + more

Perfume Making Workshop for Beginners
Booked this as my cousin's birthday present and it was totally worth it. The studio was clean, organized, calm, and looked aesthetically pleasing. I was a bit worried before booking since English is not our first language, but the teacher was very kind, explaining each step clearly. Overall 10/10, would recommend, and I'll definitely go back for other workshops
Frances Thompson
The class was a gift from my kids. My daughter and I loved the choice of menu and enjoyed eating our prize dishes afterwards. Dillion was a very a knowledgeable chef. A Great fun afternoon.
Nikayla Amiatu
Terrarium Workshop for Beginners
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.

Had a great experience surprising my friend as a hens present before she gets married! We had a lovely, one-on-one experience with our teacher and made cowboy hat incense burners and miniature houses on hills! Very creative and a lot of fun! I recommend!

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. TheI 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 demo pet she painted was actually from one of the pictures I’d sent in of my pet, and she captured the face in such detail that it was almost of photo quality. It was so good that I had to buy it. Cost $85. Class set up: - The room itself is small and narrow. There’s really no need nor capacity to move around as you are busy painting. You are sandwiched in quite closely to the person next to you and although the ad says you can BYO your own drinks and snacks to paint and sip, the available room on the table is limited and to be honest, you are so busy painting that there really isn’t time to be sipping and eating! Aprons and 2 paint brushes (1 x large flat + 1 x small for detail) per person are supplied, although you can ask for a different size paint brush if you wish. Access: - The venue doesn’t cater for people with disabilities as it’s upstairs and there is no lift access. Personally, I struggle with stairs due to pain and leg weakness and while I could make it to the top - albeit very slowly, doing so aggravated my pain. The toilet is a single loo, very small and narrow and wouldn’t really suit someone with certain disabilities either. Transport: - There is limited parking in the surrounding streets although it is close to the Kew tram junction. Suggestions for improvement: - Maybe have one person less at each bench to allow for a little bit more elbow room and also provide a water jar for the paintbrushes for each person rather than sharing a water jar. Why? - because one person has to constantly reach across themselves to use the water jar as for one person, it will be situated on their dominant side but for the other, unless they are left handed, it won’t be on their dominant side. Also, if one person is using dark colours in their painting, while the other person is using light colours, inevitably the dark dirty water infiltrates the lighter colours of the other person’s palette particularly as you are encouraged to frequently add water to your paint. Both myself and my friend felt that their seemed to be a lack of a proper introduction as to what to expect of the session at the start. It seemed to be a bit of a rushed “if the music is on, you paint, if it’s off, I’m teaching so listen up” instruction and that was it. At some time during the session, while we were all busy painting, I vaguely recall Kay saying something about other classes but no one was listening as by then we were all busy trying to complete our paintings so this would be better to be moved to the start in the introduction to the session. Although Kay would readily help you if you asked, we both expected that she would have roamed the class a bit more offering individual painting advice to each participant. Overall: - an enjoyable day. Probably not something I would do again in a hurry, not because I didn’t enjoy it but it is sort of a one off thing to do with someone and the cost is also more than I would normally spend on a gift for a friend. + more

Linocut Printmaking Masterclass
What a fantastic class! It was a birthday present from my wife and I loved it. Lianna is a knowledgeable and super helpful teacher. Work-Shop is a great space with lots of room to work. All tools and materials included. Plus free tea and coffee. Who could ask for more from a practical learning experience?

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.

Sez was amazing, she went through step by step with me allowing me to use my own laptop and giving me lots of extra information, plus notes. Sez asked me before the class what did I want to learn, then she research and supplied materials to make several items relevant and for me to take home. I learned how to download and use SVG, create Stickers, creating my own cut out cards instead of using shop bought and loads more. Plus she talked about materials best to use and buy and went through using Cricut Space. I am going to book more classes with Sez as she's a great teacher, friendly, caring and she even spent more time than I booked with me! + more
