I had a great time. My instructor Gaye was so welcoming and very easy to talk to. The experience was a gift from my daughter. Instructions were clear. While some materials were set out ready to begin, we were all encouraged to look at the other options and choose something different if we wanted to.

Although there wasn’t a special occasion that weekend, it turned out to be an incredible way to spend my time. The instructor was fantastic—he was kind, patient, and very knowledgeable about the craft. He explained the steps clearly, making sure everyone felt comfortable, even if it was their first time doing something like this. He also gave us creative freedom while guiding us through the technical details, which made the class both fun and educational. The venue was well set up and had a cozy, creative atmosphere. It was the perfect space to work on something as intricate as a Turkish lamp, with plenty of room to spread out and choose materials. Soothing Turkish music played in the background, adding to the peaceful and inspiring vibe of the class. Speaking of materials, I was really impressed with the range and quality provided—vibrant mosaic tiles, beads, and glass pieces in all sorts of colors and patterns. Having so many options really allowed me to customize my design, and I loved the final outcome of my lamp, which turned out beautifully! I attended the class with someone special, and it was wonderful to share this creative experience together. His lamp design was actually the most beautiful one in the class! During the class, we learned how to arrange the tiles and beads on the lamp base to create intricate designs, and we got to experiment with different techniques to secure them in place. I had so much fun seeing my vision come together, and it was fascinating to work with these traditional materials. As for value, I think the class was absolutely worth it. Not only did I leave with a gorgeous handmade lamp, but also with an enriching experience that I’ll always treasure. I wouldn’t mind doing the class again, just to try out a different design and experiment with new patterns and colors for another version of the lamp. What I liked most was the hands-on creativity. It was so rewarding to see a simple set of materials turn into something uniquely beautiful, and it gave me a real sense of accomplishment. Whether you’re looking to learn a new skill or simply enjoy a relaxing and creative afternoon, this class is definitely worth trying! Lastly, a huge thank you to Shirley for this gift—it was the best birthday present ever! + more

Perfume Making Class for Beginners
I went with my mum for a birthday gift making perfumes together, the experience was great. The teacher was very skilled at explaining the process at picking a number of scents for the perfume and how to ratio the oils to make a scent that was truly personal. Picking a bottle was also really fun and the packaging and box complimentary with the experience really topped off the workshop.

This was such a wonderful class! I received it as a Christmas gift and I wouldn't hesitate to gift this class to anyone. It was such a fun filled night!
Natalie Collis
A wonderful mothers day gift and opportunity to try something new. Materials were all provided and no material limitation to create as much as wished in the timeframe.
Jessica Kisiel
I was gifted a tufting session from my family for my birthday & I had so much fun! All materials & tools were provided (they were great quality!), and the teacher was fantastic. Everything was explained so clearly and my finished piece looks absolutely amazing. I can't wait to go back for more! It's a perfect gift idea, date idea, something fun to do with kids or even solo.

Beer Tasting and Smoke BBQ Cooking Class
Excellent BBQ Smoking class with three different meats pulled together as a very tasty lunch. The two presenters were really knowledgeable and efficient. Unfortunately it was an unseasonably windy day but spirits were high and everyone enjoyed themselves. I purchased this course as a gift for my husband and he really enjoyed it.
Anna Reibelt
This class was a birthday gift to me from my husband, and my teenage daughter also enrolled in the class. We had a great time and now I have a lovely lamp for my study! The teacher was helpful and kind. I would recommend this class - you don't need to be super-artistic to end up with a great looking lamp.

Introduction to Painting Course
I was given this class through a gift voucher and I found it to be an enlightening and engaging experience. Margaret was encouraging and direct, providing excellent instruction in the technical detail of painting. Lessons began with colour mixing, to learn to make any colour shade from the basic colours, with the following weeks focusing on water colour, oil painting techniques, and drawing in perspective. Margaret provided access to high quality materials, which provided an excellent platform to learn.

Introduction to Painting Course
I revived this course as a birthday present and had never heard of Margaret or the artists shed before starting! What a fabulous introduction to painting. We covered a lot and I also walked away with some lovely art pieces that have inspired me to keep painting/drawing. Will definitely be doing more classes with Margaret in the future :) Thanks so much for a great four weeks Laura
Jo Bensley

Kiln Formed Glass Art Class for Beginners
Purchased as a birthday gift for sisters. They had a fantastic time with the teacher and live their Whimsical creations.
Jeanie Bruce
This was so much fun and so informative. I’ve never made soap before, but the process was really easy and very clearly explained. The 2 hours flew by and being such a small class meant I had lots of opportunities to ask questions. This was a birthday present to myself - what a great gift
Matias Kewe
Canberra Hidden Women's History Walking Tour
Lucy was great! The tour was great! The tour flew by and I learnt so much. As a person that identifies as male but is curious to know more about this Capital of ours, I'm supremely glad I took the time to partake in this activity. I was gifted this experience as a gift and immediately upon finishing it I was wondering who I could gift it to in turn. Many thanks to the She Shapes History, it's so great to be witness people people share their passion. I rate this tour a Canberra must-do.
Donna Stove
Our instructor Emily was calm and patient, and really nice. This was a Mother's Day present for my Mother in Law and myself and it was money well spent. We both had a wonderful time and love our beautiful lamps! Highly recommend
Moira Byrne
Well-prepared, patient, encouraging teachers. Lovely finished products with packaging ready for gift giving. A great time! Thank you so much.
Cathy Zanella
Finger Painting Class for Adults
I purchased as Xmas gift for husband. He loved it! Mick (teacher) was very encouraging. Hubby is colour blind and doesn’t do much in the way of creative art. He found it relaxing and lots of fun, using the paints and his hands as the tools. Highly recommend
Georgina Lane
I bought a voucher for two teenage girls and they absolutely loved the class. It was fun and engaging and they met crafty, like minded people of all ages. Gorgeous little space full of good vibes and creativity. The teacher was fantastic and we can’t wait to see the end result! Nothing but love, great bday gift
