I attended a soap-making workshop in Catherine's little workshop in early September 2020 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The whole day was well-paced, with plenty of time for questions and discussion and ample opportunity to put everything into practice when we set about making our first two batches of soap. A highly recommended and enjoyable experience!

I had an amazing time at this workshop! I've never attempted needle felting before and was pleasantly surprised how much fun it was. The kit arrived promptly through the post and had everything needed. Gwen, who runs the workshop, is a wonderful teacher and was really cheerful.

Georgie was a wonderful hostess.
She made us feel safe, warm and welcome.

I have really enjoyed this course - the kit provided was excellent and Gwen was a great teacher in explaining everything! Both my sister and I managed to have a nice finished piece by the end of the workshop and we never done any felting before. We really enjoyed it and I would highly recommend this course to everyone !

Having had Bladesmithing as a new hobby/side project on my mind for quite a while I decided to take the one day course to get a feel for what exactly's involved.

A birthday gift from my partner. And what a great day it was. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Came away with a knife I can use in a bit of bushcraft. Nothing fancy but function is more important. I've used it and am well happy. Definitely recommend.

Furniture making course: fundamentals of furniture making Part 1 (beginner) - 2 day course in Surrey
