I booked this class as a present for myself and best friend to do, we had such a good time, the setting of the class was really pretty, there were cupcakes handed out which were delicious and we were luckily sat next to some lovely ladies that we chatted with for the evening. The spaces were tight but there was always someone passing by you could ask for a paint colour and they helped happily. The + more

Thank you to Anita our teacher who explained clearly how to make a candle from scratch and infuse with oil. We learnt the difference between parrafin and soywax candles. It was a fun afternoon with a group of likeminded people. The end result was a beautiful handcrafted candle. The venue was easy to find and the workshop was light and airy and comfortable to work in. My experience was bought as a Christmas + more

Textured Silver Ring Making Workshop
The silver ring class was a Xtmas gift from my daughters to me and my husband. The teacher was great. Very welcoming, very nice, funny, dynamic and very clear. The venue was a very cute little cafe, with very good food, with a bonus discount for work-shoppers. The materials were appropriate and well explained. I had a great experience!

This was a present for my boyfriend and we finally did it this Saturday - it was wonderful! The little studio, tucked in the back of a lovely Hungarian Restaurant has a relaxed at-home feel. 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

Birthday Gift Ideas
Why experience vouchers make the best gift ideas
When it comes to finding the perfect birthday present for a very special person, it can be difficult. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to make giving thoughtful, meaningful gifts for him and her easy and fun. With our gift experience vouchers, you’ll be able to give the lucky birthday boy or girl a wide choice of unique in-person workshops, virtual experiences, and DIY kits. So, instead of worrying whether they’ll like it or not, you can focus on the good stuff - putting a smile on their face on their special day. Wherever they are in the UK, they’ll have access to DIY crafts classes, cooking classes online and even disco yoga classes from local teachers and artisans. Now that’s a special birthday gift! So, whether you think they’ll enjoy getting creative with a paint and sip kit or crafty with a soap making class or even mixing things up with some cocktail making at home - they’ll love receiving the opportunity to choose a unique experience to unwind, de-stress and experiment with a new hobby. This is why we think our gift experience vouchers make for thoughtful and unique gifts. Gift them the chance to try something new, explore a new hobby and get creative - something even more exciting than a material object.
Unique birthday gifts
If you’re looking for unique birthday present ideas, we have plenty of wonderful options to spark your imagination. If you’re on the hunt for birthday experience gifts for him, we have lots of unique gifts to explore. If he’s a foodie with a love for the outdoors, why not try a BBQ cooking class online? If he’s an amateur artist who lacks the tools, why not treat him to an art kit, or if he’s a laid-back artiste who enjoys a glass of wine, a sip and paint kit?
When it comes to birthday experiences for her, we’ve got you covered there too! For a lady who needs a little calm and stillness in her life, our meditation courses online (from tai chi, online yoga classes to mindfulness courses that involve sipping on tea) are the perfect gift for her. For the woman who likes her DIY projects, why not treat her to some invigorating DIY home decor crafting, such as a pottery at home class, or a spot of jewellery making?
Our birthday gift experiences are made with uniqueness in mind so when it comes to finding gifts for him and her that are different and unlike anything they’ve ever received before, we've got you covered! Why not treat your special someone to a new and exciting experience this year?
Unforgettable birthday present ideas
If you want to give your favourite person a birthday present that is truly unforgettable, we say swap the material gifts for experience gifts! Whether they’re creating memories by cooking up a storm with a cooking class online led by an expert chef or by learning how to make soap with an artisan organic soap maker - with an experience as a gift, they’ll make lasting memories that will warm their hearts for years to come. Not only that but by giving a birthday gift experience, you could be giving them the gift of a new skill, passion or hobby - a gift that just keeps on giving. When it comes to unforgettable birthday present ideas, we think our selection of gift experiences has the potential for creating not just lifelong memories but also inspiring a new love of all things creative and crafty.
When it comes to birthday gifts for mum, your gift could help her find her love of flower arranging or ignite her interest in candle making. It could help her to fill those evenings when she’s looking for fun things to do at home, with a hobby she really loves. Our public classes could even help her to meet new friends or a community of like-minded others. When you give an experience as a gift, the possibilities are endless and the memories, unforgettable.
