I spent a freezing but thoroughly enjoyable day making a willow chair with excellent tuition. From the start of the day cutting the willow and setting aside for the various parts of the chair.

I've always enjoyed knitting and sewing, but had never tried any kind of woodwork (Lassies didn't get to do it at school in the 70s!).

Amazing! This course is the best course I've been on in a very long time and is the best one day course I've ever attended. In just 6 hours Sakeena teaches the skills and practical knowledge needed to go home and start making candles immediately. The workshop if fun, interactive and you produce lots of candle of various types and...
