I did so many workshops here and all of them are just way tooo fun! The glass turned out so elegant and so cute. That would definitely be a great gift and for dinner parties.

Love the bows too much. Thank  + more

Glass Painting Workshop for Beginners review by Felicity Maher - Canberra


Leanne Schuhmacher




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. Definitely a  + more

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!

Fluid Art class review by Jess Vilkaitis - Canberra


Victoria Franklin




I did a candle making class with my daughter for a school holiday activity. The venue was bright, airy and clean, packed with the most beautiful assortment of displays and charming gifts. The teachers were extremely welcoming, friendly and accommodating. We were provided with a very large range of materials and options for our project. We were guided with upmost patience and encouragement through the  + more

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.

Hand Building Class: Garden Flowers review by Natalie Collis - Canberra


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.

Tufting Class for Beginners review by Jessica Kisiel - Canberra


Robyn Cooper




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.


Rachel Graf




Great bday present for my granddaughter. Teacher was very helpful and all materials were provided for our glass painting. Class was great value for money and provided an opportunity to slow down and be creative. Thank you so much for an enjoyable evening.


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.


Karen Hooker




I received a gift voucher for my birthday and came along on my own. I felt welcomed and included from the beginning and had a really good time. The pace was comfortable, the afternoon tea was awesome and I came away with 5 beautiful smelling candles and the kit to start making them at home. I would highly recommend going.


Alexander Stewart Battarbee




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. I ultimately found the class to provide excellent  + more


Laura Eason




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




Awesome Great class. Will be going back in December. Highly recommend for everyone. Great gift ideas.


Leanne O'Callaghan




Would recommend doing this pottery session. Was extremely therapeutic and fun. Amy the facilitator was very helpful and supportive. My husband and I received this as a Christmas gift and enjoyed it immensely.


Lyn Carrol




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




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




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

Inspire new passions with these one-of-kind gifts for everyone

With a ClassBento experience gift card, the opportunities for creativity and artistic exploration are endless.

These truly make for one-of-a-kind gift cards for men and women.

Romantic experience gifts

Experience gift cards can boost wellbeing


If you’ve ever wondered what the benefits are of gifting experiences over traditional gifts, we’re here to help shed some light. Experience gift cards are so much more than just the excitement of trying something new or learning a skill. They're also incredibly beneficial for your wellbeing! Research has shown that engaging in creative activities can help reduce stress, promote positivity and boost mental health. So, when you gift an experience voucher, you're essentially gifting joy, relaxation and a much-needed break from the daily grind!

Picture your loved one immersing themselves in a painting class, letting their worries melt away as they focus on their canvas and colours. Or imagine them laughing with friends at a pottery workshop as they shape clay into funky pots and vases. These moments of joy and relaxation are priceless, and a pretty cool perk to our digital gift cards.

And it's not just about individual enjoyment either. Group experiences can help connect friends, family members and even colleagues too. Whether it's a team building cooking class or a group painting session, shared experiences create lasting memories that go well beyond a physical gift.

Plus, with our ClassBento experience vouchers, your giftee will have the freedom to choose what they want to do and when they want to do it! This flexibility ensures that your gift fits perfectly into their schedule and preferences. If you’re curious as to how experience gifts work, it really is as simple as purchasing online and sharing a digital (or physical) copy with the lucky giftee. They’ll have over 9,000 experiences to choose from when they’re ready to redeem!

Gifts to boost wellbeing

Spark romance with these unique couples vouchers


Shared experiences make the heart grow fonder, and in the case of gifts for couples, an artisan workshop could be just what a pair needs to take time out and reconnect. Experience vouchers allow the couple to choose an activity they’ve always wanted to try together or something that will encourage them to give a new experience a crack!

For adventurous couples, they might opt for an invigorating night photography course in the city or a welding workshop for beginners. Those searching for romantic ways to celebrate an anniversary could opt for a private cooking class or wine tasting experience—in fact, an anniversary gift card can open up so many intimate and romantic possibilities!

If you’re feeling stuck, it’s best to always remember what couples activities the pair love to do together. If they’re dedicated plant parents, a terrarium or kokedama class might be the pick that’s most meaningful for them. Or if they’re passionate gin lovers, a gin blending masterclass may be the best environment for them to reconnect and make new memories.
