  • 5/5 from Cj Eklund, attended Jul 2023: Couldn’t be happier with the resin pouring class and my results. Took a friend for her birthday and had so much fun learning about the process. Chris is talented, knowledgeable and approachable, which is the perfect combination for a teacher. She set the vibe just right and the class wasn’t too big so she could give each participant attention and assistance. Absolutely loving the results and we’re already planning when we can take another of Chris’s classes. Highly recommended.
  • 5/5 from Sarah Phillipson, attended May 2023: I had a great time making coasters and a cheeseboard with Chris! The instructions were clear and Chris was always ready to answer questions or help out. There were multiple styles of board and coasters to choose from as well as a big range of colours to work with! There were also some very tasty snacks provided during a tea and cake break. This was a super chill resin experience and I'd recommend this class to anyone interested in giving resin a try!
  • 5/5 from Romayne Hoyle, attended Apr 2023: What a fun morning with Chris Dreads of Allertare designs. This morning I underwent the introductory resin workshop and created a beautiful cheese platter and 4 drink coasters. The venue was very close to home and there were a choice of styles for the cheese board, and every pigment colour you could desire. All items were included in the cost along with refreshments. The finished product and the enjoyment I experience was second to none, and such value for money. I went into the workshop knowing nothing and thinking I had no talented but discovered under the expert guidance of the instructor, I create too. Although you have to wait for the platter to cure, it’s going to be a delight to serve friends and family and bask in the glory of knowing “I made that”
  • 5/5 from Joanne Currington, attended Jul 2022: Chris made us feel so welcome and "at home". She provided a fun atmosphere, was very organised, knowledgeable, helpful and fun. Chris explained why we did things the way we did, what would happen if we didn't, was patient. Afternoon tea was abundant and nice and the atmosphere around the table felt like family. A beautiful hostess, knowledgeable teacher and fun person.
