Shannon
Pottery Class - Throwing on the Wheel
Dave was a brilliant, patient teacher. It was the first time we have done pottery and he made it very fun. I will definitely be returning in the future and I think it would make a very nice present for Christmas & birthday’s. Was worth every penny we got to make lot’s of different shapes and choose our favourite mug. Thanks so much :)
Jennifer Foort
I received this as a gift for a significant birthday. Abi the teacher was friendly, great at explaining and very helpful. Plenty of time to have three throws of a pot and ended up making a dog bowl, small pot and a candlestick holder. Really nice group and good messy fun. Highly recommend.

I’ve booked it as a birthday present activity. The teacher was very attentive thus making the class enjoyable for us too. It was a lovely studio that gives out an intimate vibe. Will definitely be back again in the future :)
Maggie Lewis
Beginner's Guide to Acrylic Paint Pouring
I bought this as a gift for a friend's birthday surprise. We both loved it. Joanne at Hobbycraft Stockport was excellent. The time flew by. Excellent value for money as we took the painting kit plus spare canvases and coasters home to do more in our own time. Joanne also took the time to show us the relevant art resources in store, showed lots of examples and gave us tips and advice. Would definitely + more

Graham Renshaw
The class was a birthday gift from my son. My wife and I went along to the White Hart in Southark. A great venue and a nice room. The teacher was excellent, able to tailor the session to suit all abilities. The theme was ‘Bright Sky’. Materials were provided and the step-by-step support and guidance was excellent. It was a very enjoyable social occasion and we were delighted with our paintings + more
Emily Watson
Jewellery Making Class: Resin Earrings
I was gifted this class as a birthday present and it did not disappoint!! Our teacher Shelly was so lovely and funny, really good at explaining the processes too. The venue was sweet, the crafting room was so colourful and fun. I came away having made 5 pairs of earrings, which were later posted to me with all the attachments (pliers, glue, sandpaper, etc incl.) so I could put them together myself. + more
Mandy Minchin
Textured Silver Ring Making Workshop
Attended this workshop after receiving it as a gift from my daughters. Location was perfect - in a small cafe - and the teacher (Denna) was great. All materials were provided to enable us to make a ring, with 3 options for finish, and we all came out with a fab ring each. It was a great process and would definitely do again.
Shaden Idris
Unguided Free Flow Painting Workshop
There were plenty of resources & canvas was appropriately sized. The location is also nice- in spitafields market. I really enjoyed this session. I didn't get to finish my tulips within 2 hours but my friend was able to finish her painting, so overall i'd say 2 hours is a good amount of time. It's perfect for being in the present moment & it's quite therapeutic.
Nathania Dacosta-Hyman
I booked this as a present for my sisters birthday. The experience was wonderful. The teacher was bubbly and knowledgeable. We each got to leave with our very own silver rings that we soldered, hammered and customised.

Emma What a fabulous gift for anyone’s special day - unique and super interesting - Tere just made it great with her personality Lynn
Gwenda Sutton
Pottery Class - Throwing on the Wheel
Excellent class, very enjoyable with a patient and interesting teacher (Dave) who was easy to talk to and put us at our ease straight away. The session was brought for me as a Christmas gift and it was something I had wanted to do for a long time. I am now keen to continue with classes where I live. A lovely experience and an looking forward to collecting my mug

Paint and Sip Class - Watchfield, Swindon
No painting experience required. Step by step instruction was well spoken and explained. Very chilled and relaxing evening. This was a birthday present for a friend and she loved it. Just take yourself or grab a few mates. Definitely will book another event. Thank you so much.

I was given a voucher as a present and decided to do a Sauce cooking course at The Avenue Cookery School. Diana was a very engaging teacher. She gave us really good tips and solutions including recipes for sauces that were flexible and useful for so many dishes. She explain the logic of the cooking process without prescribed instructions. Lovely relaxed afternoon and lunch.

I attended this class as a gift from my daughter for my birthday and loved it. The lady and her daughter were very welcoming, lovely and very informative. Everything was well set out and clear with easy to follow instructions. The lady was helpful in explaining and showing you what to do before but also with the independence of preparing the food yourself. The venue was clean and set up nicely with + more
