Gifting time? Gift time.
The dilemma of what to gift those special people around you isn’t just looming – it’s arrived.
The almost impossible balancing act of giving a gift that is thoughtful, exciting, and not a repeat of something they already have is a tale as old as time. Our answer? Gift an experience.
Booking an enjoyable experience is the right choice in a season where free time is scarce. Plus, it makes it that much easier to make plans and keep them. Loosely planned coffee dates fall through much easier than a pre-booked jewellery-making class with mum, or paint and sip with your girlfriends.
Crafting things with your own hands is proven to release feel-good endorphins, and there is no better place to try something new than the supportive environment of a workshop or class with someone you love by your side. Best case? You walk out with a final product you can proudly display. Worst-case scenario, you create a special memory together to look back at and laugh.
Need inspiration?
Pick your own flowers: Get outside, soak up the sun, and come home with a gorgeous bouquet of hand-picked blooms. Prebbleton Peonies offers ‘pick your own’ events throughout the summer season.
Paint & Sip: Limited artistic ability aside, it’s hard not to enjoy an evening spent with a paint brush in one hand and a glass of wine in the other. At Pinot and Picasso, options range from festive creations to MAMMA MIA! night.
Pinch & Sip: Cup of tea more your style? Consider having your morning coffee while creating tomorrow’s mug in a workshop at Stolen Bagel Pottery Studio.
