Honestly - fantastic workshop. It was really wholesome and fascinating to understand how to bring a beautiful perfume together using essential oils and the carrier oil. Kai was absolutely amazing at teaching and guiding us. He was very helpful and knowledgeable too! I would highly recommend for any occasion. I was thinking of buying another 2 for a wedding gift to a newly wed couple! I think this is a great workshop. Thank you!!! + more

Why experience vouchers make the best gift ideas for Christmas
Christmas comes but once a year – and as the last special occasion on the yearly calendar, you’ve probably already used all of your great gift ideas for birthday presents, Father’s Day celebrations, Mother’s Day gifts and anniversary treats. Sound familiar?

So if you’re looking for a surprise for your dashing date or marvelous mate, why not treat them to a fun experience gift, or sign both of you up and head off to a craft class or cooking workshop together? You’ll be able to make some marvelous memories and celebrate the festive season by learning how to cook some tasty treats, getting involved in some Christmas crafts or mastering the art of mixology. And as our fabulous activities in Manchester are designed for the complete beginner and led by expert teachers, you won’t need any prior experience to master macrame, whip up a Christmas wreath or bake the perfect loaf of sourdough bread!
