Introduction Silver Jewellery Workshop for Beginners
The workshop was a present from my wife as I have previously designed jewellery for her. I would thoroughly recommend trying this out as it is great fun, the day just disappeared and if you are lucky you'll come home with some beautiful creations. Liz is a great teacher. She clearly explains the science and the techniques we tried out. She demonstrates each technique in easy to follow chunks at a pace + more

The perfect gift experience. A friendly atmosphere for both groups and individuals. Very cool space and chilled atmosphere. Amazing teachers who were encouraging and helped at each stage if needed.

My girlfriend got me this amazing Masterclass as a birthday gift and honestly it was by far the best gift I could have wanted. I’ve wanted to get into patisserie for a while now but never did it myself and I’m so glad my girlfriend decided to give it to me as a gift.

I appreciated the intimate setting and the diverse mix of guests, + more

We came in and got straight to work with Mihaly giving a quick yet instructive intro and all the help and tips we needed along the way. We both ended up making 6 pieces, which clearly showed our progression as + more

Pottery Making Taster Workshop
I came with a friend as a birthday present and it was so much fun! All our pots turned out great and the teachers were so helpful and made sure we came away happy with what we’d made. I also think it’s great value for money so I would definitely come again!
Dr May Myanmar
Excellent gift idea if wanting to do something more creative! Really enjoyed the class where we made mosaic mirrors. I only wish we had time to have some of the snacks as we were too focused on trying to finish the pieces. Depending on the idea for your mosaic piece you should factor in time for executing it as I think a few of us were focused alot of detail and trying to make our pieced look great + more

Why you should gift experiences over things

If you know they’ll love digging into their creativity at one of our art classes but are unsure which one to choose, then our experience gift cards could be the ideal option.

Once your lucky recipient discovers a new craft activity they love, it could be the first step toward a lifelong new hobby and it'll be all thanks to you!
With the rise of hobbies and their easy sharing on social media, the advantages of embracing a new creative skill have become crystal clear. When you dedicate time to doing what you love, you'll find yourself feeling happier, experiencing an overall improvement in health and well-being.
