Gail Lennon • Aug 2024
took the workshop as a birthday gift for a friend, the teacher was very knowledgeable and engaging. The venue was intimate and in a secure building. That atmosphere was pleasant with nice music in the background. I liked learning how to create a fragrance and the different notes. The class was a great value for the money and I enjoyed hands on learning experience.

My daughter bought me a gift card for Christmas, to take a cooking class at the Kitchen Engine! It was so educational and fun!! The instructor was fun and easy to understand! The food was delicious! I will do more classes in the future!

Not just for doll enthusiasts or creatives, this wonderful class is for everyone! I didn't fancy dolls much as a child. I had a few but preferred to play with my bear stuffies instead. I didn't know about the magic that could be found in dolls. I have attended Peggy's wonderful workshop twice now. Both times I was swept up in the joy and freedom of play and creativity. Being a person who struggles + more

I booked this class as a gift to my mom for her birthday. I was hoping for a fun interactive experience while also learning something new, and our teacher, Rosemary, delivered just that and more; The vibe of her studio, clearly laid-out materials and tools ready to use, and and easy to grasp instructions. Rosemary even went so far as to send the recipe and all the photos she took of us that day! Truly + more

Bladesmithing Class: Railroad Spike Knife
I booked this class as a birthday gift for my partner and am very glad I did. The class was AMAZING and this was due to our teacher being very knowledgeable, funny, patient, and passionate about blacksmithing. The venue was awesome and we were able to see so much creativity from the other people using the giant space. All of the materials were provided to cover making the blades as well as safety. + more

Terrarium Workshop: Sip and Plant
Came here with my BFF as a birthday gift and it was great! Loved that the terrarium glass was large and of good quality. The kit had everything we needed and there was a decent variety of plants to choose from at our table. I really appreciated that they had a snack and drinks table (was not expecting that!) and the hosts were very friendly and patient. I genuinely enjoyed the activity and the hosts + more

Sushi Making Class: Rainbow Roll, Steelhead Roll, and More
My cousin gave me this class as a holiday gift and we had the best time! The fish is fresh and everything is prepped for you in advance so you get to focus on making your American rolls, hand rolls and Maki rolls. Definitely bring a Tupperware for to-go items, as we had extra sushi. We learned knife skills and how to purchase the best sushi grade fish. Our class was held at Hotel Kabuki which has a + more

Cake Decorating Workshop in San Francisco
My husband and I had the funnest time at Olesia's cake decorating class! We attended a full class of about 15 or 16, but Olesia made sure to go around the class to give everyone some attention and pointers each step of the way. The class was set up perfectly - from the tools, the buttercream, the cake, and even the snacks and drinks. It was our first time decorating cakes and we would recommend this + more
Experience Gifts for Mom Chicago
Why experience gift cards make the best gift ideas
It’s not easy finding the exact right thing to show your love and appreciation for your mom or mother figure in your life. If it feels like you’ve exhausted all of your good ideas, choosing a gift card for experiences in Chicago is a great alternative to flowers and dinner out.
Even if your mom loves getting flowers, you could mix it up with a floristry class. Instead of just buying a bouquet, you and your mom can take a workshop together. Not only will you learn the skills to create a gorgeous floral display, but you’ll also spend precious quality time together. That’s a priceless benefit to taking workshops with loved ones.
Maybe your mom has always wanted to learn how to make ceramics. With pottery classes, she can pick up skills like wheel throwing or hand building. She can visit a local studio and learn from an experienced artist, who will guide her step by step. Our workshops are great for beginners and there’s no pressure to make things perfectly. It’s all about the creative process and if your mom has an artistic side she wants to nurture, she’ll appreciate this experience. Gift cards allow her to pick the type of pottery class she wants to take at the time that fits her schedule. You can’t go wrong!
Unforgettable Mother’s Day gifts
What do you get the woman who made your school lunches and prepared your favorite dinner on special occasions? Why not treat her to a cooking class where she’ll learn something she’s always wanted to try? If your mom loves sushi but can’t imagine making it on her own, a sushi making workshop is the place to boost her confidence. A local chef will show her how to make the perfect rolls and nigiri with the freshest ingredients. When the class is done, she can show off her skills the next time you’re over for dinner.
If your mom is the crafty type, a candle making class is a fun workshop to try. She’ll appreciate learning how to make custom candles with natural ingredients and her favorite scents. She’ll learn all about blending fragrances in soy wax or coconut wax, then perfect the pour into glass vessels. Once she’s done, she’ll have candles to take home and enjoy.
Another fun and out-of-the-ordinary class is perfume making. It’s a great way to take a deep dive into the history of perfumes and learning fragrance blending. Learn the difference between top notes and base notes as you hone your sense of smell. This is a unique experience that’s perfect for birthday parties and even bachelorette ideas.
Unique birthday/Christmas presents for mom
It’s never easy finding gifts for mom but if your celebrating an important birthday, you might feel the pressure. If you’re looking for a 70th birthday present for an adventurous mom, a leather working class might be exactly what she’ll love. Imagine learning how to make a belt or handbag in just a few hours. She’ll pick up important techniques and the knowledge for using special tools to make handcrafted leather goods.
Or if fine arts is where she wants to explore her creative side, you can book a painting class and get her to unleash the artist inside. Take a sip and paint class together and enjoy your favorite Sauvignon Blanc while you create a canvas. Or try other projects like painting tote bags or wine glasses. No matter what you choose, you’ll leave your class with new skills and something to display that reminds you of your time together.
DIY gifts for mom make excellent Christmas presents, especially if your mom loves taking on a new project. A wreath making class is a fun way to get into the spirit of the holiday. You can take invite your friends and family to take the class as a group and walk away with Christmas wreaths to decorate your doors. No matter what the reason to celebrate, our hands-on workshops are just right when you’re searching for good gifts for mom.
