"I was amazed by what I was able to create from such unpromising starting material. I couldn't believe how beautiful my finished spoon was, particularly having started with a flat piece of wood. Louise was so helpful and knowledgeable, and the location/facilities were brilliant. Do it, sign up, have fun, you won't regret it 🙂"

Spoon Carving with Louise Forbes

"I absolutely loved the Cyanotype class I took this weekend. As a complete craft beginner, I was completely comfortable trying out new things. Katherine was a fantastic teacher, very clear in her instructions and very helpful with any questions. A great studio space, great people and a perfect way to spend a Saturday."

Cyanotype Printing with Katherine Gallacher

"What a special weekend that was, I really didn't want it to end! "

Art Doll Making with The Pale Rook

"I attended the 6 week crochet class and absolutely loved it. Firstly, what a great group of women. All ages and stages. Warm and friendly. Cynthia, our teacher, was amazing. I was in awe of her crochet skills, and patience. She laid out the instructions very simply and clearly. On week one when Cyn showed us the hat we would start with I thought “aye, right” but we did it over 2/3 weeks. By week 3 we had started on the next project, a bag. Amazing. Such patience and skill."

Beginners Crochet with Cynthia Fong

"The workshop was a valuable me time. A blend of being able to chat to new people, learn new skills, feast my senses on the vibrant materials. It was delivered in a comfortable light and airy space. I was made to feel very welcome and would love to do another course."

Embroidered Embellishments with Chloe Patience

"To borrow from Forrest Gump's maw, Botanical Printing is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get. But it's certainly fun finding out. The surprise of seeing how your printing turns out was a real buzz.."
