WonderDays Staff Picks - Jess
A Little Bit About Me: I like to think of myself as quite a creative person who really enjoys DIY. I value experiences that allow me to step out of my comfort zone and make memories with my family and friends.
Pottery Masterclass Experience
My mom, sister and I found this to be a really enjoyable and beginner friendly experience, as none of us had ever worked with clay before. To quote Bob Ross “there are no mistakes, only happy accidents!” so you can really make this experience your own. The workshop gives you the chance to make three of your own creations, whether it’s a new mug, bowl or plant pot, so you get a lovely memento to take home at the end of the day.
As a lover of all things fantasy and historical, I have always wanted a sword to display in my home so this experience is definitely on my bucket list. A lot of workshop experiences tend to lack customisation, so the fact that this experience offers the opportunity to engrave family emblems, crests or initials to make the sword unique is such a bonus.
Gelato is 100% a top comfort food of mine, so I think it would be very interesting to learn how this sweet treat is made. The experience offers you the chance to make your own gelato with the flavour of your choice & gives you the opportunity to take your gelato home to share with family, or to keep all to yourself, whatever floats your boat!
Fused Glass Tealight Holder Experience
I LOVE glass art. It is honestly borderline concerning how many glass hanging or tea light pieces I own. I attended this experience with a small group of friends and we each made a holder for another in the group, kind of like a twist on Secret Santa. This experience was super beginner friendly so don’t be intimidated! You’re also given the option to collect your creations a week later or pay £5 to have it delivered to your home, so you don’t need to worry about making another trip if you don’t live locally.
Just for Fun Forging Experience
This is another experience that is on my bucket list and is perfect for those that don’t want to be limited to creating a specific item, as the experience allows you to create whatever you like with plenty of inspiration from their showroom. Create a home décor piece or a custom dagger, let your creativity flow!
