Abigail Bean reviewed: Pottery classes in Teesside

"I absolutely loved this course. I went for a taster course with my father and we really enjoyed the experience. Louise allowed us to use the wheel which we were very pleased with and gave us brilliant advise and instructions. It was a very relaxed environment and we were able to use our own creativity throughout the lesson. I would highly recommend this to everybody- no matter how skilled in pottery they are."

Claire Carter reviewed: 1 day introduction to silver jewellery making

"I had a wonderful day on the one day introductory course with Johnathan. My friend and I had booked the course in February as we found we were both interested in knowing more about jewellery making, it did not disappoint! An incredibly informative, relaxed, and productive day all round...I came away with a lovely ring and a cheeky little piece of dreadlocks jewellery:o) A constant flow of coffee and a fantastic lunch was more than I was expecting....so friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this."

Louise Flaxman reviewed: Crafting Custom Candle Fragrances: A Step-by-Step Guide to Perfumery for Your Business"

"I attended this course yesterday and felt that I learnt so much from Zagga. She is warm, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about fragrance and candle making. She made the session fun and relaxing and the 3 hours flew by! I came away with the knowledge to now start my own business and I now know where I was going wrong previously. She cares about what she does and is very passionate about her business. Well worth the trip up to London for the day! Thank you!"

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

"I was given the gift of a two day silkscreen printing course with Caroline Davidson. It is one of the best presents I've ever received. With excellent instructions we were able to enjoy creating a design which we printed on fabric and then added colour to. Caroline tailored her instructions and advice to our different abilities and needs. It was a relaxed, fun two days. We were provided with endless tea and biscuits and scrumptious lunches. I can't wait to book another course!"

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

"I have just had a fabulous two days with Caroline. I attended a course with my goddaughter, so that she could be inspired and I could have time out doing something creative - and it worked completely! In two days, we produced something to be proud of, under the clear and brilliant instruction of Caroline, and in the beautiful environment of her home and garden. We also enjoyed delicious lunches, endless cups of tea and biscuits, and interesting conversation. It was a very relaxed environment, which was great for when you are doing that first print! We enjoyed every minute and would like to do it again. Definitely highly recommended."

Vanessa Eardley reviewed: Two day stone carving course at Chillington Hall

"Starting with the basic techniques of using the right tools in the correct way, Miranda guides you to a level where you can 'lisen' to the stone to know you are hitting it correctly. She helps you to achieve your design idea with just the right amount of help. The others in the group are a great bunch and we have lots of laughs and interesting discussions while we 'bash' away. We work outdoors when it is fine weather and can make as much mess as we like but there is an indoor studio if it gets too wet or cold. Anyone wanting to learn something new with exercise ,fresh air and good company, this is the course for you!"

Sarah and Tony reviewed: Wood turning courses

"George and his wife Susan looked after us very well and made us feel at home. George is an excellent teacher and it was interesting to learn about the equipment, tools and how and why we work with wood the way we do. George also struck the perfect balance between enabling us to practice our new found skills making our bowls with stepping in to add finer detailing and finishing touches or tweaks so we as complete novices could go home with 2 lovely bowls. Wholeheartedly recommended!"
