Had a great time making our Terrariums!! They give you a lot of options to decorate with and our instructor Vivien was super helpful!! A great gift idea, would definitely recommend

Terrarium experience review by Eliss Manon - New York City


Evan Moore




This was an anniversary gift for my partner and I. What a wonderful class. The learning was very minimal (mostly a focus on Ikebana’s focus on no symmetry, and how to start creating an ikebana arrangement) but it was a calming and serene class, the teacher was so kind, sweet, and supportive. If you don’t want to feel much pressure and just want some resources to make a beautiful arrangement, this  + more

Mary Anne McTiernan




This was the best present ever. We created three delicious pasta dishes, salad, and dessert following the instructions of two incredibly warm and talented chefs. Great atmosphere! Beautiful people! I highly recommend.

Justine Raymond




This class was incredible! I bought the class as a surprise gift for my partner and we each made one knife each. Our instructor Arlene was so helpful, funny, inspiring, and had a great taste in music. The effort was somehow both easier and harder than expected (my arms are spaghetti), but the teacher was available to help if you were struggling. To be able to leave with a handmade knife was amazing!  + more

This was a gift for my son and his girlfriend. They had such a great time, and you even got my son to try things he never ate Thank you! Thank you! Regards, Marie


Bona Jeong




Melanie was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions in details and thoughtful manner. I always wanted to learn about candle making for hobby, and this amazing birthday gift from my sister gave me this chance! This specific venue got a little noisy in the end as the customers started to come in for lunch. Other than that, I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who has interest just  + more

Great class with helpful instructors. I took a friend for a birthday gift and it was fun! Everyone was new to pottery and had the chance to make something they could later take home.


Yessmeen Moharram




Christian was so great!! We loved the energy! The space was cute, christian was so kind & everything felt so easy to follow. And super easy to get our gift card! We also spent it immediately on some insensé lol

I brought my husband here for his birthday to make a survival knife. I did the buddy up option since he would be the one mostly working on it and it was great. Honestly, the best time ever. He enjoyed the entire process and we may even go back to create more items! Our instructor was pretty cool and really sweet, made sure we were getting our desired shape of the knife. Our end result looked amazing! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for unique gift ideas or date nights!


Anonymized ClassBento student




I booked a class for my birthday with a few friends. Everyone loved the class! The teachers made it so fun with candle trivia, helping pour drinks, and just creating an overall incredible vibe. They even gave us all gift cards to use in the shop. I really recommend the class for any event or if you want to just find a fun activity to do with friends.


Doan Buu




My wife and I took the pet bowl class for an upcoming holiday gift exchange, and we were really happy with our decision! Natalie was very nice, helpful, and imformative and created a fun, relaxing environment. I'd never really worked in clay and by the end of the class I was quickly putting together my second bowl without much help or instruction! Two hours went by in a flash, I'd definitely recommend to anybody who wants to spend an afternoon crafting creatively.


Moongelina Hanson




Brittany and Cristian made the experience fun and comfortable, truly loved it. I think the cost for the class was really worth it, and the scents are to die for. I will be telling all my friends and anyone asking for recommendations for fun and relaxing to do in NYC. I also love the gift shop and how it felt like a little secret hang out when we went to where the class was taking place, it was a very  + more

My all time favorite store to shop and browse around when in Bushwick!!!! The atmosphere is always so cozy and they’re always playing the tunes! My partner and I recently did their candle making class and it was probably one of the best experiences we’ve done this year. The candle making studio is so nice and intimate, it’s perfect for a date night! Cristian and Britt were very helpful and  + more

Gina Martinelli




The tickets were a gift for my sister for us to take the class with her two daughters. Several busy months later, we were able to schedule it. It was such a fun class! The instructor is personable, knowledgeable, and very engaging. I would definitely recommend this class!


Christopher Hutton




This was a xmas gift for my partner and we both enjoyed it. Teacher was great spending enough time with everyone to make sure we did not struggle. Venue had enough wheels, space and materials and we did learn the basics as set out. Yes I would recommend this class to any beginners.


Phallan Grossman




I got this class as a gift for my best friend as her 25th birthday present. We both absolutely loved this experience. One thing I loved was we learned the overall process of making perfume. If we didn't know what we liked, he guided us through it. I highly recommend, to go with friends, family or a significant other!


Orri Cohen




Very fun and easy to learn. Great birthday gift for my wife and I to do together.


Carson Elrod




This is a GREAT time. I was given this class as a Christmas present and it's one of the best gifts I've ever gotten. The class size is small. My teacher was Gerard, and he was warm, nurturing, enthusiastic, encouraging, skilled, and patient. This is a no-nonsense class where you really learn by doing. There's a quick hello and then you're geared up and pounding on molten pieces of rebar like you're a Viking blacksmith forging a sword. After hammering, shaping, quenching, grinding, and weaving, four hours later you leave the workshop with a knife  + more


Sabrina




Got this as a Christmas present and I loved it! We got a feel for the clay and were able to just have fun and make little pots and bowls. Definitely want to go back for another class


Clara Smith




The class was great! Instructors were super friendly and helpful! It was a gift for my mom, would recommend.
