Kintsugi Pottery Class for Beginners
The session held bu Brandon and Lee was a holistic and fun session! Ive always been been advocate of embracing imperfections so kitsungi (and wabi-sabi) is always something I resonated with and wanted to explore more on. The kitsungi workshop was fabulous, with patience, balance and focus, you get yourself a beautiful kitsungi bowl for yourself. The instructors were kind, lucid, and helpful throughout. The location was elegant which added onto the experience. Had been with a dear friend who loved the experience as well.

Brilliant one to one crochet session at Hobbycraft, Blackpole, Worcester-I needed help with making a granny square as I was struggling-my teacher was lovely and her help was just what I needed to get me back on the right track-excellent value for money.

Wheel Throwing Taster Workshop
Great class, plenty of time to really get used to working with the clay if you’re a beginner. The instructor was ver knowledgeable, she was able to correct mistakes and put your piece back on track. Overall great experience

My daughter thoroughly enjoyed this class and she felt confident by the end that she had learned the basics around crochet. The lady who ran the class was very helpful.

This pottery class was a birthday gift and both myself and my partner had the best time with Abi! From the moment she opened the door was high energy, happy and exciting vibes. The class was so much more than we expected, we learned and got to try and re try so many things.

From the moment she opened the door was high energy, happy and exciting vibes. The class was so much more than we expected, we learned and got to try and re try so many things. We felt totally chilled to be able to test and make mistakes, Abi helped us think about size, shape and style of what we wanted, showed us around the studio and explained everything, and answered all of our curious questions. We had the best time, the two hours flew and we are now looking at the 12 week course with Abi because we had so much fun and we were so happy with the final product. We could not recommend this class highly enough, and Abi was amazing! Thank you! + more

What a lovely morning myself and my grandson had at the class. We baked and created some stunning cakes, which we were really quite proud of. Bhavna was an excellent teacher, helpful, clear instructions and several new skills learned by us. We were surprised how much we managed to achieve in 2 and half hours. Really lovely atmosphere, thank you :)
Ana Skelton-Garcia • May 2024
Absolutely wonderful time. The class was only half full but it was a perfect number of people, Connor was really super at giving tips and teaching tricks, and the playlist was really great, we’ve saved it to our Spotify! We’re chuffed with the final result of our paintings too.

Silver Jewellery Making Half Day Workshop
Lovely venue for a small group. Well organised and everything we needed was readily available. Louise explained the process very calmly and with knowledge. We learned a new skill and are very pleased with the very wearable jewellery that we created. Would recommend.
Karolina Kaczmarek • May 2024
Great value for money. The lady who run it was very patient. It was easy in the end but you really needed to follow the steps. 8 years old girls were fine to do it without help.
Karolina Kaczmarek • May 2024
Great spent 30 min during half term week. Good value for money. Initially I went there just as an observer, as you can't leave your child and pick up later, but it seemed fun so even I made my monter. There were examples you could try to copy.

Came here for my friends birthday- this was her gift. Our teacher was lovely and explained everything so well. Neither of us have an artistic bone in our body but this class really was inclusive of everyone regardless of talent. The group was quite big- but this wasn’t overwhelming we were all chattering away and it was a friendly atmosphere.

The teacher was great and friendly. She was really helpful and made sure to break down each step of the painting process, which allowed my friend and I to follow along easily. The materials provided were useful. I felt we had everything in order to complete the painting. As a beginner, who hadn’t painted in years, I learnt how to blend colours and mix different colours.

I believe the class was good value, not only did I enjoy myself in those 2 hours, I also got to take home a piece of art work that I was really proud of myself for creating. I particularly liked following along with the steps. The atmosphere was a relaxed atmosphere which meant I was calm whilst painting. I liked that I was able to enjoy my beverage, socialise with my friend whilst also following along to the teacher’s steps. + more

Great workshop, very informative. Easy to follow instructions - a great new hobby! Maybe put the photocopied words in separate envelope inside parcel for posting - the dark print had rubbed off on my yellow yarn leaving dirty marks in places.
Ruth Olney • May 2024
This was a birthday gift from some friends. I loved it. It was a sip and paint class where we painted the Northern Lights. The teacher was brilliant, so patient and kind and gave clear instruction. Materials were spot on and the venue was really good. The time flew by. Was great to connect to some creativity in a warm and friendly environment.
Theresa Awofolaju • May 2024
The teacher, Connor was lovely and patient. I had a lot of fun getting back into painting. It's a great idea to have reference pictures and Kenya's paintings on the walls were also lovely. Great atmosphere.

Beginner's Guide to Acrylic Paint Pouring
Maria was great! Love the paint pouring process. Wish we had just a smidge more time (30 mins). Would’ve given 5/5 but there was no soap to wash up properly - and it was a little messy! Otherwise, very enjoyable. Would recommend.

The class took place in the teacher’s home, overlooking her lovely garden giving a very peaceful, intimate and homely atmosphere. A clear demonstration and instructions were provided throughout the soap making workshop and the materials were easy to use. I have come away from this class with new knowledge not only around the soap making processes itself but also the history behind it, the business side of craft and the secrets of the beauty industry as well. Given the cost of the materials as well as the expert knowledge, the class was good value for money. An additional highlight for me was not only the free tea and cake but also cuddles with Ruby the dog. + more

Bespoke Candle Making Class: Make Your Own Signature Scent
I liked that it was done in a small group of about 10 people which meant lots of opportunity to have conversations with the host. Location was cosy. Host was very welcoming, patient and issued clear instructions. Enjoyed making my own scent and naming it. Great activity to do with friends.

Introduction to Candle Making Workshop
Brilliant class with a fantastic team! Lots to learn and such a unique experience. Would certainly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Daniel • May 2024
Clear directions to location. Teacher was friendly, enthusiatic, put you at ease from the get go, and willing to answer all questions throughout the workshop. The materials provided were of great quality, with clear instructions of how to use them along the way. A great introduction to Kintsugi, ideal as a single/couple/group or as a gift for someone looking for craft ideas

Lino Printing Class: Totes and Tea Towels
A very relaxed, fun experience with friends! Lots of inspiration if you're stuck and the chance to practice first which is great. Venue was easy to find and 5 minutes from the tube. Very good value for money.
