Ness was amazing and the class was very informative and social. Ness broke down the elements well and it was easy to create. The studio space is also amazing and inspiring. It’s my second class here and I will definitely do another. Great Sunday afternoon.

Sarah was so knowledgeable and informative and paced the class well, introducing new concepts and giving us time to practice them. I had so much fun and learned so many techniques. I can’t wait to put all the new tips and techniques into practice. A wonderful Sunday afternoon.

Great way to spend time with friends while learning the art of textured painting. Danni was informative and helpful and explained new elements well. Time for practice before creating a work of art. Comfortable facilities and a location easy to get to, a fun experience.

Elli was very informative and explained all elements well. The class was methodically organised and the various stations made it super easy to piece it all together. It was a wonderful way to spend a Sunday. The end product was also pretty cool. Thoroughly recommend.

An inspiring beautiful space in which to create. Be warned there are so many beautiful choices you may find yourself coming back again to complete another project. A relaxing and fun afternoon spent with a good friend and very friendly and helpful host.

This was my third class with Nicola from Handmakers Factory and it was another enjoyable and easy to follow class. Nicola has a great camera set up which allows you to watch from different angles while she is explaining everything. She is super knowledgeable and informative. I always learn something new and that is why I love doing the classes. This one was my favourite so far.

Kirsty was very informative and passionate about her amazing craft. Easy to follow and patient as we followed along. Kirsty provided rich information about the products and use of them, providing additional tips to spark our interest. I totally recommend and will be signing up for another course with Kirsty. A great way to end a WFH day.

It was a form of art I had never tried before and it was well explained. The kit came with almost everything I needed to get started and keep practicing post workshop. Great way to learn a new art form.

This is my second ClassBento with Nicole from Handmaker’s Factory and the reason I have done another is the wonderful instruction - easy to follow, many camera angles and extra tips means that Nicole puts so much attention to detail in her class content. Nicole is very knowledgeable and is able to translate her knowledge into simple easy to follow steps which has enabled me to learn two new craft skills. The ability to interact and ask questions is what sets Class Bento above any DIY video. The video post class is another bonus as you can choose to watch and learn and do it later or do it as you go with all instructions received prior to get you ready for your class. I’m a very happy attendee, not my first and won’t be my last. Thanks Nicole!

From ordering to delivery everything was smooth sailing. The session with Nicole was excellent and the ability to ask questions along the way was very helpful. An awesome Saturday afternoon in. Thank you!
