Helen Auld reviewed: Powertex Workshop - Fantasy House

"Jan was super helpful and communicative to arrange a session for me and my mum at a time that suited us. She supplied everything, explained what to do clearly and didn't interfere but was always on hand to help. The session was well timed and not rushed. We were supported to make our own unique fairy houses and had a lot of fun doing it."

Clive watson reviewed: Blacksmithing Introductory Workshop - One Day

"I arrived 10 minutes late due to traffic. However, soon down to a quick brief on H&S. Kit on and away we went. What a great day I had and my wife was very appreciative of the goodies I brought home, after all she had brought me the course as a birthday present. Stuart is very competent instructor with a good sense of humour and easy manner. Thanks for the brilliant tuition and no my wife tells me I may not get a forge in the back garden."

Pete Kenneally reviewed: Full day leather craft workshop

"well designed course. I found it both pleasantly enlightening and encouraging as a complete novice with an interest but having never done any leather work. By the end of the course I has made a glasses case, a business card holder & a purse / wallet. Rosanna was very patient and informative and I came away very happy and will be carrying on further with leather craft now that I've had a good insight."

Sara Schofield reviewed: Two-day Silkscreen Printing Course: Design and Print Your Own Fabric £170.00

"I have just spent two wonderful days with Caroline where she somehow managed to find in me an artistic talent I never knew I had! Her teaching skills gave me the confidence to "have a go" and by the end of the course I felt such a sense of achievement in having created a fabric of my own design. In addition to the designing and printing, I enjoyed two amazing vegetarian lunches, prepared by Caroline's husband Iain, served up in their lovely home. I definitely hope to return one day to refine my new found skills."

Kelly reviewed: Two-day Silkscreen Printing Course: Design and Print Your Own Fabric £170.00

"Caroline’s studio is such a lovely environment full of beautiful designs and inspiration. Over the two days I felt I learnt so much, caroline is an absolute fountain of knowledge and whatever you choose to do she will try really hard to explain to you the process to get your end result. I was delighted with my finished design. The lunch was delicious on both days and the refreshments kept us going. I would definitely recommend!"

Peter Dean reviewed: Wood turning courses

"Thanks for a really surprising day and for reminding me that I have to listen in order to learn what the master wants to teach the student ! Thank Susan for feeding me. I can see before I go any further that I need to master chisel sharpening and so will get a jig. Well done. The day worked perfectly. Peter."

Not only were they very welcoming and explained the benefits in full and easy detail, we got to leave with our products and the details for it.

Isménia Seize reviewed: 100% Natural Beauty Product Making Workshop

"The make your own beauty products workshopt was fun, Naz has a great sense of humour and make you relax. The crowd was nice and the setting made it easy to interact and meet new people. The workshop was eye opening; I have learnt a lot on what is in beauty products that we buy and how to make a natural substitute which is also cheaper. My favourite is my lip balm. You also receive a complementary book recipe for more. I really recommend it."

Lorna Sylvestre reviewed: 100% Natural Beauty Product Making Workshop

"An amazing morning spent with my daughter at Midas Touch Crafts learning about Natural Beauty Product Making. Which we both loved and has paid for itself over and over again now that we make all our own Natural Beauty Products. We loved it so much that we have returned for other Midas Touch Crafts workshops and knowing that its for a good cause makes it that extra bit special. Run by a wonderful mother and daughter team - whose love for what they do fills the room!"

Ray White reviewed: Creative Vibe - Glassblowing Sessions

"Had a very inspiring day with Ricky yesterday (11th October 2017) Instructed clearly throughout the day by Ricky on what could be done, why this has happened , we can do that approach, which was very refreshing considering working with this medium is very technical and limited to a degree, especially for a complete glass blowing 'virgin' Very fortunate to have Ricky to myself for the whole day and at no point was I under any pressure to 'perform' thanks to Ricky's laid back but also very safety conscious and professional approach to teaching throughout the day. Brilliant, fun, inspiring to learn more and fantastic value, would highly recommend having a go, you will be amazed at what can be produced in a single day. Ray White"
