Take the kids along to a workshop led by a craftsperson and learn to make a unique and customized object.
Something different! Make a terrarium to decorate your home, create your own custom wine blend to serve to friends, or learn to make the classic French pastry cannelé. These are among the experiences on offer from Wecandoo, which holds workshops at the premises of local craftspeople and artisan producers keen to initiate participants into their specific trade and skills.
This is a truly unusual gift idea for your loved ones. They will have a unique and custom object to bring home, made during an enjoyable workshop that they will recall fondly for a long time to come!
