Really enjoyable! We were given advice and pointers at the beginning, and then had free rein to create. It was nice to have the books for inspiration, and there were so many different brushes.
Much preferred that the pottery item is included in the price, and the size options offered are a good deal for the price I think. Tessa Dawson, ClassBento Crafter
