Marilyn Wood reviewed: Marvellous Mosaic one day workshop

"Lindsey was an excellent mosaic tutor, explaining every step of the process clearly. I was a complete beginner so was delighted when I produced a piece of work good enough to display on my shelf! It was very enjoyable talking to the other participants and seeing the variety of mosaics they made. Lindsey gave us a fact sheet with names of suppliers, and I have already bought some tile nippers and grouting in preparation for my broken stained glass project. This course gave me the practical skills and confidence to forge ahead with this."

Lindsey Kennedy Portfolio responded:

"Thank you for the fantastic review, Marilyn. It was lovely to meet you and I am so pleased that the workshop has given you the confidence to attempt your glass project!"

Lyndsey talked us through the process of mosaic and was on hand throughout the day with lots of support and encouragement. 5 people attended the day and 5 people left proud and happy with what they had made, and feeling inspired to do more!

Rose Jones reviewed: Marvellous Mosaic one day workshop

"We attended Lindsey's mosaic making course yesterday as a group of 4 people. We had a fabulous time learning about the process of creating mosaic pictures. Lindsey is very knowledgeable and was very welcoming. We enjoyed the hands on experience and all came away with a mosaic we could honestly say we were all proud of despite some of us having little artistic flair!! I would thoroughly recommend this workshop as a gift experience. "

Lindsey Kennedy Portfolio responded:

"Thank you so much for the lovely positive review, Rose. I am just so pleased that you all enjoyed your special day together and surprised yourselves with what can be achieved using some glass, glue and a board! Hopefully you'll be inspired to have a go at home."

"What a wonderful day! Lindsey was excellent at both describing & showing us what we needed to do to be successful. She showed us professional techniques & helped us to create something to be proud of.

I'll definitely be doing this course again. "

"I enrolled on the course as a complete novice to mosaic crafting. Lindsey made me feel very welcome and explained in easy steps how to assemble the mosaic. She has lots of lovely materials and examples of her work in the studio to provide inspiration for a design. I was able to complete my mosaic and fully grout and finish this in the day course and I'm very pleased with the results of my days crafting! Thank you and I'm sure that I will be back for another course. M"

Lindsey Kennedy Portfolio responded:

Jane reviewed: Marvellous Mosaic one day workshop

"My first time mosaic-ing and so glad I chose Lindsey's course! Not only did I learn how to mosaic but I left with a completed piece which I could be proud of and which is good enough to show other people! I've surprised myself but definitely couldn't have achieved it without Lindsey's expertise and ability to support me at my pace. Aside from the mosaic-ing this is a day to relax, to submerge oneself in the experience of playing (which we don't often allow ourselves to do as adults) and to enjoy the mindfulness of being in lovely surroundings. And yes, I'll be going again!"

Lindsey Kennedy Portfolio responded:

"Thank you so much for the lovely review, Jane. It is very much appreciated and I am very pleased that you enjoyed your day so much. Equally thrilled that you would like to come and have another go, or even have a go at home. It is such an accessible craft, and you certainly embraced it during the workshop. Thank you for taking time to share your experience."

Carys Palmer reviewed: Marvellous Mosaic one day workshop

"This is the third time I have been on one of Lindsey's courses and as ever it was a wonderful and relaxing experience. She is such a good teacher and very inspirational. I am always amazed at how easy and so very achievable Lindsey makes it all feel. I am definitely hooked on mosaics now and even daring to do some small projects on my own, but I will definitely come again and would love to do a longer course to try a more challenging project. Thank you Lindsey for yet another great class."

Lindsey Kennedy Portfolio responded:

"You are very welcome, Carys. It was lovely to see you again and I'm so pleased that you enjoyed your third session with me! I will certainly think about a two-day longer course for 2020 so that people can try more advanced pieces of work. Watch this space! Thank you for your kind words, they are much appreciated."

Rachel Norris reviewed: Marvellous Mosaic one day workshop

"Lindsey's marvellous mosaic course certainly lives up to its name! In the first instance, Lindsey created a safe and calm atmosphere and ensured we were all safe and comfortable throughout the session, with correct PPE being worn at all times. I was extremely pleased with Lindsey's informative approach, as she shared her knowledge about the myriad tools and materials needed to create mosaics. There were lots of materials to choose from and Lindsey even sought out specific colours to suit our ideas and designs. I felt that Lindsey was able to guide and advise us in our mosaic-making journey, while never infringing on our creativity! I thoroughly enjoyed the day and am very proud of the artwork I created. Thank you Lindsey - I am already excited to make my next mosaic!"

Lindsey Kennedy Portfolio responded:

"Thank you, Rachel, for the lovely review. I am so pleased that you enjoyed your first foray into the beautiful craft of mosaic and felt able to explore it in a creative way, even though it's only one day! Please do send me photos of your next piece, as I love to see where everyone takes their ideas. Thank you very much for choosing my workshop, it was great meeting you."

"We had such a wonderful time today with Lindsey on her mosaic course. Both my mum and I were complete novices to the art of mosaic, but with Lindsey’s guidance we came away with our very own mosaics! Thank you to Lindsey for your warm welcome and for making sure that we had all we needed to make some beautiful mosaic art; I’m feeling very inspired!

"Thank you Lindsey for a great day. A safe environment for the four of us on the workshop, with Lindsey providing excellent and appropriate demonstrations and support throughout the day. We've come away with a couple of stunning pieces which will take place of pride in our 'art gallery'. Great fun and great value for money. We'll be looking to get materials ourselves and add to our crafting at home. Thanks again - 5 Star!"

Lindsey Kennedy Portfolio responded:

Julia Fitzpatrick reviewed: Marvellous Mosaic one day workshop

"A relaxing wonderful day, Lindsey was well organised for the Corvid situation. Plenty of sanitiser and work places well spaced. The group had never done a mosaic before and we all went home with a finished work of art. Everything was fully explained with Lindsey giving plenty of individual help and guidance. I have already decided my next project and looking for a small table to refurbish. The whole day was amazing the amount of materials to try made you feel like a child in a sweet shop. A day to remember, thanks"

Lindsey Kennedy Portfolio responded:

"Thank you, Julia for the lovely review! I am so glad that you found the day relaxing and creative and pleased with your mosaic piece, and that you are inspired to go explore the craft further. Fantastic!"
