Glowing skin, happy hens
A natural soap making class could be the perfect choice for your classy hens party, with a teacher in Yeronga or Petrie. You will each choose your favourite essential oil (like rose or jasmine, derived naturally from a plant or flower), mix it with other natural ingredients, add some dried botanicals if you wish and then set it to take home. What’s more, the members of your bachelorette party will leave with the knowledge to keep making their own DIY soap at home.
An original and classy hens party
If you’re after something truly different as your hen party theme, how about a soy candle making class? Your knowledgeable teacher will guide you and your friends through the basics of DIY candle making and provide you with beautiful crystals and botanicals to give your handmade candles a unique and special touch. At the end of the session, your guests will have made several candles that both smell delightful and add a welcoming glow to your bathroom or bedroom.
Surround yourself with flowers
Are you one of those nature lovers who look out eagerly for the burst of native flannel flowers as soon as Spring hits? Or do you just love having a beautiful bunch of flowers in your home? This native bouquet workshop at the Northside Flower Market is a lovely experience for you and your close friends. Not only will your hen party crew walk away with a stunning floral arrangement that you have put together with your own hands, but you will also learn practical advice on how to make your flowers last longer, what colour and textural combos work the best and even what makes up the most attractive composition.
A specially tailored DIY flower crown workshop with Helen Maalouf could make the perfect bachelorette party. You can request a private party at a time and place that suits you or at their beautiful studio in Fortitude Valley. An array of beautiful blooms will be yours for the taking, as you learn wiring techniques to weave the stems into your flower crown. You’ll be greeted with a glass of champagne on arrival and delicious, individual grazing boxes. At the end of what’s sure to be a pleasurable and bonding experience, your squad will look gorgeous adorned in their finished flower crowns for a frame-worthy team photo!
More greenery for your classy hens do
Nature lovers can learn how to construct their own miniature garden in this terrarium making workshop with Soul Pantry in Stafford.

Eat, drink and make macrame
All that woven cord might look daunting, but a crafty hens party means you can learn a new skill with the support of your crew! While sipping on a cocktail and grazing on shared platters, you will be taught three of the most popular knots in macrame art and you will get to work with sustainable recycled cotton cord. In the classy and vibrant terrace space at Ivory Tusk, your exclusive hens party posse will learn a new skill that promotes mindfulness and patience at this macrame wall hanging class in Palm Beach.
Relax and roll clay
Pottery is one of the most functional and beautiful art forms, so wouldn’t it be great to gather everyone together to learn something that so many people have always wanted to try? In this casual clay and sip class, your private group will be guided through the technical aspects of making ceramics, like how to pinch clay, before getting creative with their own designs. You’ll finish your top hen party class with your own unique planter, vase, mug or even jewellery. Your besties will have made something they will treasure forever.
