Handmaker's Factory

I’ve done a couple of workshops here and I always have a great time and learnt lots from the instructors. Definitely recommend!

I have no experience as yet but would like to learn how to print a pattern on cotton with natural dyes for a future design

I had a fantastic time at the soap making workshop. Nichola is a calm, thoughtful and patient teacher whose relaxed approach put me at ease straight away and provided a welcoming space to learn and ask questions.Nichola was thorough with directions about the the hot soap making process, so much so, that I feel it’s something I could now do at home on my own. There are so many beautiful additions that are provided to add to your soap. You can add clay, flowers, spices, herbs, seeds,exfoliants, essential oils and natural colourants. The workshop was excellent value and I had a box of the soaps I made to take home, as well as some bath salt mixture which we were also able to make, and was a lovely surprise.Thank you so much Nichola; I’m looking forward to doing more workshops!

Excellent workshop with really interesting and active sessions. Just went to the screen print stencil session and learnt so much, had fun too. Nicola is very knowledgeable and gets you learning new skills quickly. Great to have such an amazing space with so many toys. thanks

Fantastic Space to explore new crafts from Pottery to Lampshade Building.

Great casual, enjoyable workshop.

Nicola has always been the warmest, most welcoming person of knowledge and talent. What a gem this store is to the community local, and at large. The best.

Thanks for a very well-run and satisfying lampshade making class today!I’m sure my kiddo will love the bath bomb kit, so thanks for taking the time to make that up on the spot.Thanks heaps also for the Shopify advice!!

Wonderful space for crafting workshops. Thoroughly enjoyed soap making. Looking forward to learning more.

Indigo dyeing and shibori was one of the best workshops I’ve done. Great tuition in both the due process and types of shibori, loads of time for experimenting and good materials to work with and take away. Definite recommendation.
