  • 5/5 from Toy Sirichindakul, attended Apr 2026: Mikiko was so lovely! The class was super fun and it was to nice of her to allow my partner to watch and also help me as I was struggling with just my two hands haha. It was so worth the money and time - you make 2 types. Mikiko was also patient and provided suggestions where she saw fit. I would so come back to try the Fern moss ball. So pretty!
