  • 5/5 from Florence Graham, attended Oct 2026: Came for my mums birthday and we had an awesome time! Plenty of freedom to be creative with constant support if needed!
  • 5/5 from Tori Stammers, attended Mar 2025: Loved this class. Ella was really friendly and helpful, and the garden studio is absolutely beautiful. We had so much fun being creative and really pleased with the finished products. Thank you!
  • 5/5 from Mary Edge, attended Feb 2025: Great fun with a very patient teacher
  • 5/5 from Catherine Webb, attended Mar 2023: Very friendly interactive teachers. Helpful and show us what to do rather than just handout and off you go which I hate. Keep moving round to each table to assist. I enjoyed it.
  • 5/5 from Sammi Ly, attended Dec 2022: I had a lovely time making clay flower pockets and wall hangings with some friends. Ella, who ran the class, did a wonderful job teaching us about the properties of air drying clay and how best to shape and decorate. I really appreciated Ella’s communication about the venue, which changed several times in the week leading up to the booking, and how accommodating she was with rescheduling due to train strikes. I would definitely recommend this as a nice and relaxed activity to try!
  • 5/5 from Deborah Evans, attended Oct 2022: I wanted to celebrate my retirement with 3 good friends. Vicky, our teacher, arranged a bespoke class at Cocoa Cabana in Ancoats in Manchester. Superb food and cake and the staff were very accommodating. Vicky did an excellent, fun and informative 2 hour class on Clay Flower Pocket Sculptung. We learnt a lot, had our works to take home and I paid for extras so we now have our own clay etc to do more at home. Excellent value for money and something different to do. We will definitely be having another girlie day learning something else. A big thank you Vicky.
  • 5/5 from Tamanna Begum, attended Oct 2022: Booked this class for my friends birthday and we all had a lovely time making the clay sculptures. Ella was great, she was very hospitable and definitely made the experience even better. Highly recommend
