Had a great evening learning a new skill! There were 4 in our group and we were all complete beginners. Our instructor, Lindsey, started us off with the very basics, how to start off, do a chain, double crochet, triple crochet, and how to finish off. She was very knowledgeable and if we didn't understand she took time to show us individually how to do it. She had a lovely relaxed, friendly and calm style to set us at ease.

Paint and Sip Class - Brush Party - Moreton-in-Marsh
Thanks for a lovely evening. Really enjoyed the experience. Hope to have another go some time.
Laura Chandler • May 2024
Excellent introduction for someone who has never crotcheted before. Holly was clear and kept going over things, able to ask questions. We end up with 2 small pieces of crochet which I was very pleased with

Pottery Making Taster Workshop
Something different to do on a week night. Really enjoyed it. Instructors were quite helpful and encouraging. It's a real studio so there's shelves full of mugs and vases and all sorts. They gave us clay and we each had a pottery wheel. Everyone was very lovely. Great music was playing throughout, definitely a fun class.

Kingfisher Acrylic Painting Class
The class was wonderful! I missed a lot of the first 10 minutes due to my internet signal initially being weak, however Emma was great at making sure I had rejoined. Her clear visual instructions meant I could quickly catch up - two ovals, two triangles and I was ready to get painting. Emma was very informative and friendly, and I was very pleased with the class!

Beginners' Pottery Wheel Class
Suzan is a wonderful teacher and made Lucy and I very welcome to her studio. Even though we were true beginners she patiently showed us the key steps of throwing a pot. We learnt so much and produced 3 pots in the 2 hours. Nothing was rushed and we really enjoyed the experience. I highly recommend Suzan to you - you will love the chance to creative something unique in your 2 hours

Pottery class was exceptional! Me and my sister enjoyed it so much, it was a lovely Friday night activity to do. I felt like we got better as time went by, the teacher was so friendly and attentive, she let us stay a little longer which was perfect as we got to finish our piece.
Madeleine Cotterill • May 2024
I really enjoyed this class, Amna is so welcoming and made everything seem so simple. She was super helpful to everyone and such a bubbly, upbeat attitude, she was a joy to be around! She guided us all to decorate beautiful cakes and taught us so many good tricks and everything you need to know. I was so happy with my cake, I think the class is amazing value for money and I would do it again!

Beginner's Guide to Acrylic Paint Pouring
A really enjoyable and relaxing class. John was a great teacher and I’m really pleased with the 4 coasters we created using different acrylic paint pouring techniques. The class is excellent value for money, all materials are provided (and you get to take home all leftover paint and materials, as well as your creations). I would highly recommend this class and would definitely do it again.
Claire Garner • May 2024
Had a fabulous time; excellent tuition in a lovely venue and a great evening overall. Was very pleased with my painting at the end of it and learned some valuable new techniques.

Excellent beginner session with Dawn (Teeside pk) Looked at different machines, decided on a good basic LS19. Dawn explained and demonstrated how to set up and thread the machine. Learnt basic operations using the sewing driving test. Dawn was very friendly and helpful throughout. I now feel confident to buy a machine and get started on a hobby I have wanted to do for a long time.

Beginner's Guide to Acrylic Paint Pouring
Jon was the most amazing teacher. Super friendly, patient and helpful. Each person was provided with a kit (which was worth as much as the cost of the class) as well as a separate set of coasters, and bag to take the surplus home. Jon’s instructions were really clear throughout and was really accommodating. I’d thoroughly recommend requesting a bespoke class (they can fit up to 5 adults)Jon was the most amazing teacher.

Sensational evening with Danilo, where he brought us through the history of perfume, and told beautiful stories about how each one of his scents came to be known. An incredibly sensual and personal setting with a hypnotic ambience. The evening was full wonderful bubbly, fun conversation and of course the star of the occasion, the candle making.

Chinese Cooking Class - - Rice Cake and Pork Chop
Absolutely loved this class! Thank you Simon and Hanna for having us. We made rice cake and pork chop, and added on bao buns. Great fun, lots of new techniques learned and we’ll certainly be taking all we learned to try at home. The venue was clean, well managed and the hosts were wonderful. We’ll be back to try another of their classes!

Beginner's Guide to Acrylic Paint Pouring
Teacher Moira was lovely and knowledgeable. Value for money although a little cramped could do with prep time + paint time.

Kingfisher Acrylic Painting Class
A good starting point for learning how to work with acrylic paints. Having the video to look back through after really helped as it took away any sense of urgency when doing more precise strokes and was able to work at my own pace.

Paint and Sip Class - Maidenhead
Super instruction to paint 3 dandelions. The end result was quite amazing. An enjoyable evening.
Hayley Kear • May 2024
Fabulous evening. Hosts are wonderful and instructions from them to paint are clear. Had a fabulous evening with friends. Thanks
Judith Park • May 2024
My teacher Louise was excellent. She went at just the right speed, and answered all my questions almost before they were asked. We were doing a basic Cricut workshop, but it included the many different ways in which the machine and materials could be used. A tour of the Cricut section in Hobbycraft was also very useful.

Paint and Sip Class - Brush Party - Moreton-in-Marsh
Another fab evening with Sarah. Venue was great, friendly with background music and the bar nearby! They are excellent value so I wouldn’t change a thing! Looking forward to my next one already booked! X x
Amanda Durham • May 2024
Had a fab evening painting a wonderful, colourful puppy. Bea, as always, guided us through the process and then encouraged us to be creative with our colours. It was a lively class in Watford, but we all had a great time and ended up with a lovely piece of individual art. Looking forward to my next class in 2 weeks time
