Hand Building with Clay Workshop

Really good teacher with simple and clear direction. Super helpful and encouraging right throughout the class.
They've clearly got the class down to a fine art with the perfect amount of time, people, and materials.
And the cherry on top is a beautiful friendly dog to make arriving into a room full of strangers an absolute joy instead of awkward and scary.

Fun and informative class. Daisy gave very clear instructions and lots of hands-on helpful support throughout the class. I am really happy with my pottery pieces and gained lots of confidence over the 3 hours.

Textile Printmaking Class: Handmade Stamps

I had such a great time at this workshop! Our instructor Emilie was fantastic. Really knowledgeable, and had lots of tips and tricks. It was awesome that all the materials were supplied so I didn't have to worry about bringing anything with me. The small class size allowed lots of interaction with the other participants. The WorkShop venue was very cool. Really versatile and worked well for this particular workshop. I definitely feel like I got good bang for my buck!

Leather Craft Workshop: Make a Custom Belt



The class was great and Haylee was an amazing teacher.

Simple to understand instructions and a great range of tools and materials.

It was so nice to leave the class with a belt that I had made and there was even enough time to make a keyring.

Macrame Plant Hangers Workshop



Roz was a brilliant teacher: patient and kind. She gave individual instruction to match each student's evolving designs. The product we each made in a short space of time was incredible. I felt a tremendous sense of achievement after learning so many knots in an evening and feel that I can modify these to make new designs. I am thrilled to have created Celtic knots. The venue is a very cool warehouse with good parking and PT nearby.

Ceramic Hand Building Class



The hand making clay class with Tina was definitely worth it as we were given 3 hours and lots of very interesting and useful tips from Tina to create whatever we wanted! The tools and clay provided were of a high standard and the work space was also lovely! My partner and I had a great time and can’t wait to collect our pieces and put them to use! We have been inspired to delve more into clay making!!

Love Azalea’s beginners class! Enjoyed taking time slowly and practicing with her. It was great. She’s so thoughtful and she shared all her supplies with us as well. Can’t wait to invite my friend book in a private class with her next time in the future❤️

Modern Calligraphy Class

Great venue (even though it took a while to find). Azalea was very helpful and informative. It is really nice to be able to come away from a class with the tools needed. It was also good that websites were provided to find supplies and also people in Instagram to follow. Good size class which allowed Azalea to move around to everyone.

Enjoyable few hours with Caroline, who was easy going, she also provided yummy cheese, dip and fruit platter ... oh not to forget.... wine too! Venue was like stepping back into a 70's eclectic home filled with stunning macrame wall hangings and beautiful hanging plants (of course in macrame holders!)... would definitely recommend this course
