In the back garden of a family home. Mother and daughter running classes. 6 wheels available for the throwing, close together but enough space each. Good tutorial and help when needed. Just enough time in the class to settle in, watch the tutorials and explanations, then to throw our own pot, dry and glaze it. Really enjoyed it! Can't wait to pick up the fired item.

Went in with pretty low expectations about what I'd be able to produce as a total first timer, but managed to produce 3 'olive' dishes. It was great fun and I was joined by my bestie (this was my birthday gift to her) and she loved it too! She was another first timer and produced 5 varied items. All credit to our teacher who was really patient and helpful, rescuing many pots which had gone array. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend it - book it! You won't regret it! + more

Christmas Gift Experiences Edinburgh
Why experience vouchers make the best gift ideas for Christmas
There’s only so many times you can present your nearest and dearest with the same old Christmas gift ideas; from novelty secret Santa gifts with about as much appeal as cold Christmas pudding to boring bath salts, tired ties and mundane mugs, we think it’s time to leave the shops behind and up your gifting game with an experience present instead. Whether you’re searching for Christmas gifts for Mum that will help her switch off from the daily grind, Christmas craft gifts for the creative soul in your life or something truly special that will fill your partner's heart with joy this yuletide, our selection of fun Edinburgh activities will definitely tick all the boxes.
Shopping for a crafty newbie or cooking novice? No problem – many of our craft classes, mixology workshops and cooking sessions are designed with the beginner in mind, so even if they’ve got no experience with a needle or they don’t know their braising from their blanching, they’ll still be able to join in with some wonderful Christmas-themed Edinburgh experiences. Led by talented teachers, local artisans and professional chefs at a variety of locations across Edinburgh, your loved one will be in safe hands as they set off on their creative journey, and will be guided step-by-step through the whole festive session.
Personalised Christmas gift ideas for your loved ones
What do you buy the person who has everything? A Christmas gift experience in Edinburgh, of course! If they’ve got a library full of books, a wardrobe full of clothes and more mugs than you can shake a stick at, treating them to a fun Edinburgh activity will definitely make them smile on Christmas morning. After all, nothing shows how much you love them like a completely personalised Christmas present, tailor made to their own interests!
Are they a culinary novice prone to a few kitchen nightmares? A cooking class or baking experience will help them learn how to polish up their pasta skills, boss bread making and discover how to make some delectable fried dumplings. Shopping for a creative guru who’d like a new crafty challenge? Send them off to master macrame or explore embroidery at a textile art class, or let them get their hands dirty at a wonderful wheel throwing pottery session. Trying to find unique gift ideas for someone who’s interested in the more unusual side of life? Treat them to a stone carving workshop, a blacksmith experience or a woodworking session where they’ll learn to get to grips with some of the more adventurous crafts on our list. There really is something for everyone!
Try DIY Christmas gifts this year
Christmas is the perfect time to get crafty – whether you’re a creative guru with crochet hooks for fingers, or a total novice who’s never even threaded a needle; it’s all about trying new things and getting into the festive spirit! If you’ve always wanted to give your festive season a DIY touch, you’ve come to the right place – we’ve got craft classes and cooking activities in Edinburgh that will teach you everything you need to know to put your own stamp on gifts, greenery and everything in between!
Fancy decking the halls with your own style of decoration? We’ve got classes that will teach you how to make the most beautiful Christmas wreaths to adorn your door and Christmas craft sessions that will guide you through bauble making, garland creating and festive flower arranging. Thinking about going DIY on those Christmas gifts this year? Treat yourself to a festive Edinburgh experience that will show you how to whip up some sumptuous handmade chocolate truffles, a wonderful macrame DIY wall hanging or a beautiful clay plant pot – you’ll get to have fun (and enjoy some festive snacks and tasty tipples!), learn some new skills and create something beautiful with your own two hands for your loved ones. What could be better than that?
