It’s not always easy picking out presents and that’s why experience gift cards make a perfect choice. If your sister loves watching skincare videos on YouTube, a workshop can show her how to make her own. Even if she doesn’t consider herself great with DIY projects, taking a class will boost her confidence. An expert will lead the way and show her all the techniques so she’ll end the class with customized products to enjoy.
Maybe your mom is a dedicated gardener? She can stretch her skills by taking a terrarium making class. With a gift card, she can choose the one that fits her schedule. You might want to take it with her because creative activities are great for bonding. Learn about different plants and succulents while you design a mini garden with colored pebbles, decorations, and your choice of greenery.
Buying an experience gift card lets the recipient choose their creative adventure. Whether they want to dive deeper into an interest or find another hobby to explore, you’ll be a hero for giving an original gift.
For the friend who’s interested in crafts or all things DIY, a Chicago leatherworking or shoe customizing class could open up a new avenue for creative expression. She can learn how to use new tools and materials, while getting to know other crafty people.
Sip and paint classes are ideal for groups if you need birthday party ideas. It doesn’t matter if the guests have never sat in front of a canvas before. You’ll have a local artist guide you as you paint the project of your choice with all of the supplies ready to go when you arrive.
Hands-on workshops are great for learning new skills, flexing problem solving abilities, and being open to new experiences. Even cooking classes can open new doors by allowing her to learn with a professional chef. Every class is perfect for any level, even beginners and the instructor makes sure everyone feels comfortable and supported.
The best part about giving an experience gift is that you don’t have to worry about the details. Once you book a class or buy a gift card, our teachers take care of everything. You and your loved one or friends will arrive with everything ready to go.
Try a jewelry making class together and learn how to make make your design ideas come to life. You’ll get jewelry supplies and tools to create your own earrings, necklaces, or whatever you like to wear. You don’t need to have a background in jewelry, only a enthusiasm to learn.
If you want to get people together for a holiday gathering but everyone is spread out across Chicago or even the country, try a virtual experience. You’d be surprised how fun and engaging an online workshop can be.
Choose a virtual mixology class and make cocktails from the comfort of home. You’ll learn all about spirits and mixers from a professional and pick up bartending techniques to show off at your next party.
