Everlasting Wreath Making Workshop
The event was a birthday present for with two of my friends. Our teacher was Vicki and she was excellent. She explained and demonstrated everything very well and was continuously helpful as we made our wreaths. She was very easy to talk to. The materials were good and the whole vent was good value for money. The venue was perfect, easy to find and very pleasant to spend time in.

Myself and my friend went as a birthday present to a Sip and Paint class. The class was relaxed and our teacher Sophia was brilliant. We had everything we could possibly need and the drinks were easily accessible. Sophia gave us step by step advice which was easy to follow as well as coming around to help us 1:1 on certain aspects of our painting. We had a fabulous time and we’re really pleased with + 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 experience was more than expected. A fantastic time was had. Louise has a gift not only in poetry making but also in her approach to teaching such a delicate skill to newbies. We enjoyed this so much the time went so fast. Will definitely be going back.
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

I bought this as a gift for my husband for Lunar New Year, and this was the earliest class that we could make together! Iris was such a patient, warm and attentive teacher and really good at explaining the history and heritage of this ancient art. We got to practising quite quickly using the paper and brushes provided, and I appreciated that Iris would come around and spend some time with each of us, + more

I was gifted a voucher for this lovely candle making course. The space is beautiful and calm and the teacher, Sarah, is very knowledgable about candle making and fragrances. It is a peaceful setting with a small class where you get the chance to make a variety of different candles with some fragrances of your choice. I would definitely recommend as a gift for someone who loves candles/ anything crafty + more

Fused Glass Workshop: Dichroic Mosaic Pendant
It was a Christmas gift from my husband's mum who since giving it to us, has passed away. So it was really lovely to have enjoyed the workshop and have a beautiful keepsake to remember her. Well set up & prepared space, good choice of coloured glass, helpful instruction. We all finished just after an hour so it would have been nice to possibly make another one to use more of the 2 hrs. Not sure what + more

Silver Sea Glass Ring Making Class
I received a sea glass ring making class as a Christmas gift and spent a most enjoyable day engaged in this. Our tutor Sarah was very professional and knowledgeable and went out of her way to ensure that each participant got the best experience possible. She was particularly encouraging when I struggled with some of the processes and I left with my very own sea glass ring at the end of the day.
Charlotte
Booked this class with a friend as our Christmas present to each other. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. The venue was stunning and so beautifully set up for the event. You get everything you could need to paint the candles, including ideas for decorating. The hosts were so helpful ensuring we had enough paints and our preferred colours etc. The atmosphere was lovely. Such a brilliant evening + more

Luxury Vegan Candle Making Workshop
The workshop is amazing! The atmosphere is very friendly and chill. We learned a lot from Marina as a teacher armed with her “nose for the business”. She shared a lot of her wisdom and this is a great gift for people who would like to learn new things. At the end of the fun-filled two hours you get to go home with your own candle creation. Also, perfect avenue for meeting new people. Highly r + more

Fluid Bear Acrylic Pouring Class
Took my partner here for his birthday gift and we absolutely loved it. Our instructor was so lovely and answered all our questions. The instructions were clear and our bears came out really nice; we even got to add a little creative flair at the end and listen to our own music.

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!

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?

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.
