• 5/5 from Cass Houlihan, attended Oct 2025: I spent a wonderful morning with my sister leaning about nature dying with the delightful Wendy. We used leaves, flowers and vegetable peelings to create the most gorgeous silk scarves and printed paper. Wendy is an experienced artist, cermaist and printmaker and her passion for dying fabric using natural elements from her environment really shone through. A generous morning tea and an opportunity to look through Wendy's art studio was also provided. Highly recommend

• 5/5 from Ray Ali, attended Apr 2024: The teacher was patient, gentle and went out of their way to make this a fun and informative experience for someone that has never done anything like this before. My partner and myself had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the overall structure / setting.
• 5/5 from Lyn Aitken, attended Apr 2024: What a great way to spend a morning learning a new skill. Wendy is an enthusiastic botanical minded crafty and she was an encouraging teacher for us first timers. We made a scarf and decorated a sheet of craft paper to take home. Everybody was delighted with their efforts though a bit hesitant to start. We had a perfect autumn day for sitting outside playing with leaves and flowers in the garden. A very generous morning tea was also provided. I did this on my own as a birthday voucher but it would be a nice thing to do with a friend.
• 5/5 from Skye Potesta, attended Apr 2024: A fabulous workshop in a stunning location with a wonderful teacher! I can honestly say this was the most worthwhile class I have done in a long time. Fascinating, artistic, informative …. And most importantly has truly inspired me to continue with this type of printing. Wendy has an infectious passion for what she does and everyone in our group enjoyed each others results which I think says it all. Thank you Wendy!

Words cannot describe how amazing this workshop is and how grateful we are!
• 5/5 from Nicole Welsh, attended Dec 2023: This was such a lovely class. Wendy had so many examples of her work which was inspiring & was full of knowledge on the topic. She grows a lot of her own plants for the class, tea & nibbles was the perfect break mid morning. I came home with a silk scarf & piece of thick cardboard (which i made some recycled paper & turned into notebooks). I’m now really excited to start experimenting with plants myself.

• 5/5 from Gemma Pitcher, attended Jan 2023: The class was very relaxing and I testing. Wendy's lovely garden made a great setting. Wendy was warm and friendly and good at explaining what to do. I was very happy with the scraf I made, and might try the techniques we learner again at home.
• 5/5 from Jade Day, attended Jan 2023: I purchased the Botanical Print Workshop with Wendy for my mum and my 15 year old daughter for Christmas. They both thoroughly enjoyed the class. Wendy was incredibly knowledgeable and made them both feel extremely comfortable and welcome. Wendy had conversations with everybody and treated my daughter exactly the same as she did the other ladies in the class. Both of them came home with pieces they loved that they’d made in the class and cannot wait to try the techniques that Wendy taught them at home. Feedback from both of them is that it is a highly recommended class, experience and teacher.

Loved the whole experience & was thrilled with the results from my first attempt at Botanical printing on a silk scarf & paper. I’m hooked & have shared what I learned & made with family & friends.

• 5/5 from Rowan Yeomans, attended Nov 2022: Wendy is a great teacher and goes out of her way to make you comfortable and even gave us all a plant to take home! She gave us a range of projects to work on such as ecodying silk, linen, paper as well as using natural materials for shibori dying and dying hand spun wool. She also explained some of the science and chemical processes behind the process which was super interesting. I particularly liked how my silk and paper pieces turned out. I attended the workshop with my mum and would recommend attending with a friend as it is a slow process so it's nice to have a person you know to enjoy Wendy's lovely hospitality, afternoon tea offerings, and beautiful home studio with as you wait for your pieces to process and soak in the beautiful natural environment you've been creating art in.
• 5/5 from Demee, attended Nov 2022: This class was fabulous!
