• 5/5 from Rhiannon White, attended Nov 2025: My mum told me she wanted to try out an acrylic paint pouring workshop, so I booked for us to go as her birthday treat.

• 5/5 from Kim Houldsworth, attended Dec 2024: My friend and I really enjoyed this class this afternoon. The tutor, Holly was very informative about all aspects of this class. Would definitely recommend. Good fun if you don’t mind getting a bit messy plus you go away with the kit, very good value.
• 5/5 from Mary Mason, attended Oct 2024: I was the only person booked in and I had a one to one with a lovely young lady.

Looking forward to exploring more paint pouring ideas.

• 5/5 from Karen Durling, attended Jan 2024: I absolutely loved this class - brilliant fun and Holly the teacher was amazing. She explained all the different techniques so clearly as to how to achieve different effects - and to think about colours and how they would give a different darker look if used. The paints and kit provided were brilliant value and I have lots left to play with now when I do it at home. I enjoy and do many crafts and am so happy that this class today - and my experience - means I now have another one to enjoy - can't wait to try more pouring techniques and it becoming my new latest hobby.
• 5/5 from Emma, attended Oct 2023: We spent a lovely hour learning about acrylic paint pouring and getting messy. This was our first experience of both the technique and Hobbycraft workshop and it was great fun! Holly was fab and explained each step brilliantly (as well as answering lots of questions). Everything we could have possibly needed was provided and we were given some extra bits and pieces so we can continue with our new skill at home. We have more than enough paint to keep going and Holly gave us lots of fab tips of things to try. We would both highly recommend both Holly and acrylic paint pouring!

Nice venue of first floor of shop. Offered to keep art work in the shop to dry for a few days for me to collect later in the week. It may need slighty more than an hour (or we were a slow class).

• 5/5 from Ben Billinger, attended Oct 2022: I have just returned from Hobbycraft where my son Ben participated in the beginners acrylic paint pouring workshop. It was excellent and Steph, the teacher, was very accommodating to my 12-year-old. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and encouraging. He was given a huge box of paints and canvases to take away with him and will spend hours enjoying this lovely craft. Thank you very much for such a great workshop.
• 5/5 from Dawn Cadman, attended Oct 2022: Lovely class. Steph the demonstrator was lovely and informed. A good class as all the materials were provided although to would be a good idea to either supply an apron or get participants to bring one
• 5/5 from Marion Hamilton, attended Mar 2022: I really enjoyed my fluid art workshop at the Basingstoke store. I have never tried this before and am not very good at art, but my instructor Lucy showed me examples that she had done and explained how to use the paints and oil and what affects they would have. Lucy carefully guided me, allowing me to make my own choices and design. I am very happy with the outcome All the paints and tools I needed were included in the workshop in a starter kit and I was able to take this home at the end. Lucy also kindly offered to keep my paintings at the store while they dried so they were not spoilt on the way home. I’m looking forward to picking them up in a few days. Thank you Lucy for a wonderful afternoon.
