Angela Scott
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

French Patisserie Baking Class
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. The masterclass by Valeria was spectacular from beginning to end. She explained every step and method and also with the addition + more

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.

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

Such a fun class! Can’t wait to collect my bowl and mug! I received the class as a birthday present but will definitely be back for more!
Bogdan
I reviewed this as a gift from some close friends. My girlfriend and I had a lovely time. Our instructor, Mal, was very helpful and informative. We each successfully created a pot with our instructor’s help and guidance.

Pottery Class - Throwing on the Wheel
We absolutely loved it! Birthday present for my boyfriend (his idea!) Not something I would have thought of but would recommend Dave & his patience to anyone in a heartbeat! Thank you for a great afternoon. Great value for money!

This was a valentine's gift to my girlfriend and we both had a great time, the arrangement turned out beautiful and Malina was so friendly and hospitable!

I bought this class as a present for my mum and Grandma for Christmas. The voucher was really easy to redeem and the class was really easy to book. The teacher was lovely and really informative. Venue was easy to find and parking was close by. I thought the class was good value for money and everything you needed was provided.
Ruth Watkins
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

Booked this class for a birthday present and had a wonderful time! The teacher was very supportive and lovey and help us with our ideas. The flowers provided were beautiful and we enjoyed putting our masterpieces together. I very much recommend this activity!
Julia Bridgwater
Ikebana Flower Arranging Workshop
A really enjoyable afternoon with Nono. Unbelievably hard to do a simple flower arrangement but with her guidance managed to produce something passable with her beautiful flowers! A wonderful teacher who has shed light on the art of Ikebana and a great birthday present for me.

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.
David Livens
Loved this, Joan the lady taking the class was so patient and good at what she does, I had 2 goes on the potters wheel 1st time ever. Joan centred the clay for me then let me have a play to get a 'feel' for how it works, this was great, the second time I made this pot on the wheel which I was amazed me totally. We also had a go at slab making pots with a few tools and I made 2 pots and a lid, loved + more
Anna Lisova
I bought this as a gift for mum for Christmas and it was all perfect! Malina was so helpful, friendly and kind! We had a perfect day, and couldn’t be happier with the bouquet we took home. Thank you so much - we’ll be coming back again!
Eden Blakeman
We had Elena as our teacher and she was great - super nice and interactive. It was a guided painting class so we essentially watched her paint something step by step and copied, but she also gave us the artistic freedom to make changes. I did this with my brother as a present for him and it was really nice to spend time together painting!
Keran Li
Luxury Vegan Candle Making Workshop
Marina was very welcoming and friendly. She was clearly knowledgeable about aromatherapy and was very patient with everyone’s questions. We all had a great time. Can’t wait to gift my candle!

Christmas Wreath Making Workshop
Ewa is a great teacher and very friendly. She made us feel welcome and was very patient in answering all our questions. She offered tips to each one of us on how to make our wreaths turn out amazing. The venue was an adorable flower shop, very cosy and beautiful. There was Xmas music and a glass of bubbly or tea to add the festive touch. We all had fun and laughed together and it was a great experience. + more
Lynette Finch
Introduction to Floristry Workshop
Jane was lovely and very informative. She took time to explain all aspects of floristry. She had even made some homemade cakes for us yo have with a tea or coffee. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who is thinking of taking up floristry or for a gift for someone's birthday.
Amanda Boot
I attended the mini rug workshop with 2 friends. I cannot fault the experience and I speak for my friends also. We loved it! Chun was a brilliant teacher. None of us had any previous experience. His introduction was to the point. He then remained discreetly present for any help and advice we needed. The materials were beautiful and plentiful. The environment very spacious and comfortable.

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?

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.
