It was a Xmas present for my Wife +1 (me) We both really enjoyed it, the teacher was a good laugh and amazingly, remembered everyone's names from the start! Our new silver rings look fantastic and our friends are now booked on the next course because they were so impressed of our great time. All materials and tools are included in the price, and Spitalfields is well worth a visit anyway

Everlasting Wreath Making Workshop
The event was a birthday present for with two of my friends. Our teacher was Vicki and she was excellent. She explained and demonstrated everything very well and was continuously helpful as we made our wreaths. She was very easy to talk to. The materials were good and the whole vent was good value for money. The venue was perfect, easy to find and very pleasant to spend time in.

I booked this class as a present for myself and best friend to do, we had such a good time, the setting of the class was really pretty, there were cupcakes handed out which were delicious and we were luckily sat next to some lovely ladies that we chatted with for the evening.

Silver Sea Glass Ring Making Class
I received a sea glass ring making class as a Christmas gift and spent a most enjoyable day engaged in this. Our tutor Sarah was very professional and knowledgeable and went out of her way to ensure that each participant got the best experience possible. She was particularly encouraging when I struggled with some of the processes and I left with my very own sea glass ring at the end of the day.
