Emily Marshall
This was the most wonderful and fun experience! I am not artistic at all but it was loads of fun and we are proudly displaying both of our paintings in our loungeroom and it will be such a good memory to think back on!! There were a couple of moments where I thought I'd really failed and gone too wrong to recover but Hart was so amazing and wonderful and guided me each time on how I could get past + more

The class was an early Mother’s Day gift and my teenagers came as company. We had a great time. We’d never used a potters wheel before and it was great fun. I surprised myself with my creations. The teacher was very helpful with a good demo at the start and was very encouraging.
Sharee Fiume
My daughter bought a gift voucher for me for Mother’s Day last year. I took my best friend Millie. We had a wonderful time. A delicious cheese platter and red wine topped off a fun and informative pottery class. We made 2 items, a small bowl and a large bowl. Our teacher was lovely and very talented. I enjoyed it so much that I’m taking my mum there for Mother’s Day.
Kate Jennings
This was a gift from my mum. We had a great time, it was easy to do as a newbie with Heecho’s support. She was so kind, a great instructor and had a great intimate space.

The venue was well set up with all the materials provided. Lunch and drinks were provided with ample champagne and sangria as well as tea and coffee. The paella was tasty and there was also soup for those who wanted it. Some of the paintbrushes were well + more

Great choice for a birthday gift experience to enjoy together, as both the birthday girl and I as the giver loved it!

It was a birthday present from my partner and it was definitely one of the best present I’ve received. Heecho was such a delight to have as a teacher. I wasn’t sure if I was able to make a decent ring but everything is well explained and our rings turn out beautifully. It was overall a great experience. The material was solid and great quality. 100% would recommend couples or friends to do it!

Petra was amazing with her knowledge and was easy to understand about the blending of aromas. I came home with two very different perfumes that I love. So much so that I want to order more so they will last. The environment for the class was amazing and cool so would be perfect on a hot day. I cannot recommend this class highly enough. It was a great gift and would be an amazing class to do with a + more
