Jonathan reviewed: Blacksmithing for beginners - one day taster

"Received this wonderful day as a present from my wife. I was apprehensive as the day approached and not quite sure how I would cope. However there was absolutely nothing to worry about. Aaron is a superb teacher and very patient. He dealt with the difference in abilities within our group with ease and ensured that we were all able to achieve our goals. I was really thrilled and proud of the items that I made and will remember the experience for a long time. Thank you"

Jonatha reviewed: Blacksmithing for beginners - one day taster

"Received the voucher as a present and had a wonderful day playing with metal and learning a lot. Aaron explained the techniques simply and made sure there was lots of hands on work within minutes of starting which was great. He also went on to more advanced stuff and I left with plenty of items as a memento of a fantastic experience. I still can't believe the items I made with Aaron's help as blacksmithing always seemed such a black art...it has inspired me to do some more, so I'll be thinking of some designs now! Strongly recommended for anyone with an interest in metalworking, or even for that someone who seems to have everything as they will be delighted with the whole experience. Thanks again!"

Catherine Armitage reviewed: Basket making in Norfolk

"My husband and i thoroughly enjoyed our day of basket making with Julie King. Julie was a very patient and encouraging tutor, and explained everything clearly. We were pleased to leave with a very impressive looking basket at the end of just one day. I would highly recommend a workshop with Julie (and the home made cake she provided was delicious and kept our energy up), Catherine Armitage"

Victoria Branch reviewed: Mosaic, One Day Workshop

"I attended Jane's one-day mosaic workshop and had a wonderfully relaxing and productive day! We worked on a glass mosaic picture, only my 2nd mosaic.... Jane helped me every step of the way and i was delighted with the result! A great setting for a course and a fabulous homemade lunch! I would certainly recommend the course of beginners and experienced students."

Caroline Drewett reviewed: Firebird Forge Blacksmithing School

"I thoroughly enjoyed my tuition with Mort in February. From being near enough a complete novice over the three days I made a variety of artistic and functional pieces and could see my skills improve greatly and grew in confidence with the use of the tools and forge. The tuition was both relaxed, enjoyable and informative enabling me to create decorative pieces trying new skills through to tools for my wood burner. Thoroughly recommended."

Elizabeth Carew reviewed: Handspinning workshop

"I thoroughly enjoyed this day. Walked in a novice and left with lots of new found skills, extremely good value for money, great food for lunch, lovely coffee on arrival, we bought another one at lunchtime to go with the free lunch, frothy milky coffee for £1.20, lovely! And biscuits!! Diane is a great teacher imparting lots of information and help. The room is lovely and warm with toilets and cafe close by. Not only did I end up with my own yarn, I was introduced to the drop spin, a forked braiding tool, and to see different spinning wheels and examples of yarn, tools and attachments. I was independently spinning after a few mins."

Jacqui reviewed: Wood carving and Love Spoons

"Tried my hand at wood carving this weekend for the first time. Organised everything last minute, but Sharon was wonderful in helping me join the course and making me feel so welcome and supported. Was a fantastic weekend - amazed that Sharon helped me to do so much in such a short time, but made it also fun and stress-free. Was just the tonic I needed, not to mention coming away with an original Christmas present for the box. Thank you Sharon for your generosity of person and of spirit!"
