Jenny Garside reviewed: Spoon Carving - Slojd Workshop

"I have paid twice as much for half as good a course as this one. Max spends time giving you good, sound instructions on how to carve a spoon using excellent quality tools. You have plenty of time to complete your spoon without feeling rushed. The studio is the perfect environment to complete your spoon carving project. I thoroughly recommend this course and will be booking another with Max."

Maureen reviewed: Slate mosaic workshop at Jo Garden Art

"I have done a few courses with Jo now and her courses are among the best I have been on. Yesterday was my second slate day course so having done two small pieces I embarked on one larger piece, as always the day was very well structured and paced which made for a wonderful relaxed and enjoyable experience, with Jo’s expert guidance I ended up with a wonderfully pleasing piece of artwork to join and compliment my two smaller pieces made on the first course. As always when I have been to Jo’s there is always something to inspire so I will be back. "

Jo Garden Art responded:

"What a lovely review - thank you so much Maureen. Your slate work was wonderful and it would be great to see you back in the studio again! Jo xx"
