Had oodles of fun as always, in a great class by Icy. Much more confident in my writing and happy with what I have learned in all the classes I've taken!

This was a fun class, and something I have never attempted before. I did struggle, and have continually practiced over and over - over many weeks. I found it best to adapt it to my own style, which made things a lot easier in the end and is something that is mentioned in the booklet. We're all unique, to make it our own. The part I found difficult was how to hold the brush pen, particularly when going from a fine line to a thick - I feel the class would benefit from a short video on how to hold the actual pens. I went and snooped (as suggested) how people write, but also discovered pens are all held differently, varying pens too and thicknesses. SO, I come to the conclusion it it all practice, practice, practice, and you eventually find your comfort area. I'd definitely recommend the class, it is a wonderful beginner class which you can grow from - the kit is great, and booklet. & I am certainly looking forwards to going further with what I have learned - totally enjoyable!

This was an amazing class, with the final results being 3 gorgeous gift boxes, which are so unique. Nada is a brilliant teacher, with great communication. The video was so well done for instructions, easy to follow and the end results through following along, perfect. I highly recommend this class to all, it was a lovely afternoon of creating and I will have special gift boxes for gifting the items I make to loved ones. Thanks Nada

Paper Craft and Ink class review by Sandie Edwards

Mar 2022



Was a great class, with lots of information to take in. It is not something you can perfect overnight, and we all have our own distinct additions, needs, and creativeness for completing. I intend on taking the knowledge I learned forwards with my own creative style and I certainly found this beneficial to not only aiding my creative side, but also adding to my own personal story with my love of journaling, and reinforcing the need for 'me time'. The image I enclose is my rough beginnings of an entry, learning my way and I look forwards to adding to it. I've done several classes with Icey, and have enjoyed them immensely.

DIY Succulent Terrarium Craft Kit review by Sandie Edwards

This was a brilliant class, and Icy is a fabulous and informative instructor. I was a little concerned about being such a noob to Calligraphy, but I breezed through the learning process a lot easier than I thought I would, and found it so interesting and very relaxing. Icy shares a valuable source of information, not only on the 'learning side', but also her own history, and where to source further papers and products. I practised what I learned in class today, and am proud to say I am happy with my writing style and know in time as I practice, it will improve. I highly suggest this class to all, and look forwards to the next class I am taking with her.

Modern Calligraphy Deconstructed review by Sandie Edwards

Feb 2022



This was fun, but I can't say I was successful in creating a geode bath bomb. I attempted several times, hoping to squish a bit more mixture into the mould, thinking it wasn't full enough, and checking the consistency, but each time my bath bombs would crumble. I ended up scooping the bath bomb mixture into an airtight container and will use by pouring into the bath.
The kit has enough mixture to make 4 bath bombs. You also need a brush, which wasn't listed in needed items. My kit only came with part of the instructions and I had to contact creator for more detail, as what was sent did not explain the process of making them, just the geode salt part. The creator was pleasant to deal with and fast to contact back and included the instructions and a video for me to watch. Helped a lot!
and even though my review is not successful, it was still fun 'trying' and I still have a nice bath product, but not a geode.

This is my 2nd class doing one of Tanya's terrarium's and it was great. The care and attention to detail shows an obvious love of what she does in her class kits. They are simple, quick and easy to construct and any age group would manage it, not to forget they look amazing upon completion. This kit would make a perfect gift, as a kit or made up. Tanya is has great communication skills, and is quick to get back to you. I highly recommend this class!

Terrarium kit review by Sandie Edwards

Feb 2022



Tanya has put a lot of time, thought and love into this class - that is very obvious is opening and examining the kit. The product quality is amazing, with easy to follow step by step instructions, with all items numbered to simplify even more - anyone, any age would be able to do this and be totally happy with the end product. The little lady-bugs are quiet the talking point, and add that special touch. I personalised mine more with a few shells I'd collected at a beach many years ago.
I also want to mention how lovely Tanya is to correspond with, a happy, pleasant lady, only happy to help.
I just ordered my 2nd terrarium kit, loved it so much! Thank you!
