Whether you need a 40th birthday gift idea for your bestie or you want to go beyond the flower bouquet for Mother's Day, a gift of experience is a great way to give something out of the ordinary. If your friend has always wanted to try wheel throwing but hasn't found the time, our pottery classes are great for beginners. Friendly teachers guide new students every step of the way in a welcoming studio. The best part is learning a meditative and creative new skill while bringing home the ceramics one they've been glazed and fired.
Is your significant other into beer or wine? Our wine tasting and beer making experiences are better than finding a fancy bottle at the specialty shop. Local beer and winemakers will walk you through the production process and give you notes as you taste your way through some delicious drinks. If your friends or family are cocktail lovers, learn how to make a margarita or a new negroni recipe with an expert mixologist. Get all the best tips and tricks while perfecting your bartending skills!
Maybe a hands-on activity will make the best gift experience for newlyweds who already have a house full of stuff. If you need a gift idea for couples, a hands-on experience like a woodworking class or a Spanish cooking class will make a meaningful and memorable present. Do you have a group of friends that does everything together? Learn how to make pizza with a local chef and create the perfect pies with deliciously crisp but chewy crusts and all your favorite toppings.
If your mom or sister really get into their self-care days, you can learn how to make candles together. Find out how to mix the perfect scent and pour natural wax candles that burn clean and leave a heavenly smell when you light them. Or get an in-depth lesson in making bath bombs so you can have the perfect spa experience at home.
Do you need to find unique experience gifts to say thank you to your team? You can engage your colleagues and show your appreciation with a paint and sip class that lets them get creative while they unwind and socialize. You don’t need to be an artist to enjoy these classes. Your teacher will make sure everyone feels at ease no matter what level you are, even if you’ve never held a brush!
Even if you have that hard-to-please person on your list, our unique gift experiences will impress. Let their fashionista side stand out in our cool sneaker customization workshop or try a chocolate-making class for a memorable time creating, and best of all eating, chocolate! Need cool gifts for guys? Our cooking classes are a delicious way to spend an evening. Whether your friends are new to the kitchen or they’ve dreamed of being an Iron Chef, we have all kinds of lessons from learning how to grill steak to finding the perfect ramen recipe. An experienced chef will lead the class where all the ingredients are waiting for you. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and your appetite!
Your crafty friends will love one of our resin art classes where you can learn how to make colorful coasters or make a macrame wall hanging that could rival anything on Pinterest! Our floristry classes offer all kinds of beautiful projects from making dried flower arrangements to flower crowns. Take a look at our complete catalog of experience gifts and find an activity your friends will remember for a long time to come.
