Rosie reviewed: Introduction to screen printing

"I highly recommend Ria. I asked for a bespoke workshop and had a fantastic time learning exactly what I had hoped to learn. Nothing was too much trouble and I left feeling totally inspired to try screen printing on my own (as well as a cushion for my daughter who was absolutely delighted with it). I can imagine this would also be great fun as a workshop with friends. Definitely a great day."

Jayne Towndrow reviewed: Introduction to screen printing

"I spent one wintry day in one of Ria’s taster workshops and had a pretty spectacular time. Ria is a fantastic tutor, very knowledgeable, very good at teaching. I was a tad nervous (having most recently completed a bookmaking workshop elsewhere, but where I was absolutely hopeless, and didn’t want to be again), but Ria put me at ease really quickly, allowing creativity to flow. She was skilled at helping us to translate something from our heads into a screen-printed reality. How do you do that, Ria? She was incredibly generous with her time and never rushed us. I left at the end of the day with beautiful screen-printing. And I do mean beautiful. I just love colour and there was colour aplenty. I should also mention that there is a fabulous bijoux café on site and no trouble parking. I was rather sorry I didn’t get a chance to look around the rest of the craft centre because it all looked interesting. I am already planning a return visit."

Lampshade Making reviewed: Fabric printing & lampshade making workshop

"Ria is a very patient and knowledgeable teacher. We both came away with lampshades we are going to use - mine is going to be a Wedding present for someone and I'm really happy with the result. The setting is lovely and we also enjoyed lunch from the cafe. I've recommended to a friend already! Ria gives enough input so that you get a fantastic results but still feel that you designed and made it - a perfect balance!"

Yvonne Kerry reviewed: Fabric printing & lampshade making workshop

"I had a lovely day doing this course. Ria has a great personality and explained everything very well. She made lots of useful suggestions to make our original ideas come to life. The group was small so there was lots of individual attention. Ria even made me feel confident about freehand drawing my own shapes and making the stencils for my fabric printing! I came away with a fun nature-themed lampshade for my bedroom. I'd really like to make a couple of smaller shades now for my wall lights! The course is well worth doing and was a very enjoyable day. As an aside, the on-site restaurant is very good too!"
