• 5/5 from Alan Singleton, attended Apr 2026: Brilliant workshop!. I highly recommend this class if you want to learn Kintsugi -Sammy and Katie made everyone had a great learning experience and it was a very relaxed class too! It’s a really cosy place too to learn in. Really enjoyed it! Than you.
• 5/5 from Paddy Burke, attended Apr 2026: We had so much fun today! Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were already looking into the next course we want to book into!
• 3/5 from Carol Loveday, attended Apr 2026: The teacher was good. Sadly my pieces just didn't want to go back together. I was holding a piece and it wouldn't hold, she gave it to another student to hold for a few minutes whilst I was sat there watching. The tutor put in the resting place and the 2 pieces fell apart again. As it was ½ past 3 and none of my pieces were together I thanked her and left.
• 5/5 from Shelly Parker, attended Mar 2026: Such a mindful and relaxing class. Sammy was a really great and fun tutor! Thank you
• 5/5 from Virginia Bazley, attended Mar 2026: Well planned, all materials, tools and safety equipment laid out for each of us. Friendly welcome. Clear instructions about each stage; explanations of materials to be used. We were shown how to break our chosen ceramic; how to sand the broken edges, then clean the raw edges; she stressed that we needed to work slowly, and would need to hold and support each glued joint for 10 mins before starting the next joint. A coffee break was scheduled for an appropriate time, while our glued ceramics were resting and getting stronger. She gave us a choice of how to finish off, eg removing uneven glue or accentuating it with with the gold laquer. After each stage she removed the equipment and used materials, so our work stations were kept tidy. She was very helpful in answering my questions, and gave some advice on a project I had in mind. Overall a relaxed, engaging enjoyable workshop, I was in safe and knowledgeable hands!

• 5/5 from Goddard Ian, attended Jan 2026: Sammy was great! Very clear with her instructions and loads of fun too. I went a bit mad and smashed my bowl into 23 pieces! Probably way too many but hey. Great fun gluing back together! Time certainly flies in the class. Didn't quite manage to finish it but Sammy was very helpful and gave me materials to complete at home.
• 5/5 from Ruth Schofield, attended Nov 2025: The class was so much fun - great teacher, clear instructions and very positive approach to everyone's work. I would definitely recommend this course.
• 5/5 from Paige Striebig, attended Oct 2025: We loved this class. It was such a calm and cathrtic way to spend the afternoon. The whole process was laid out very clearly with detailed instruction but we would all work at out own pace and experience level.
• 5/5 from Sarah McKay, attended Oct 2025: Had a fantastic time!! Sammy was warm, welcoming, and super helpful. She put us completely at ease. Her explanations and demos were very detailed, and I felt very comfortable. I loved that the class was structured to go through the entire process, from breaking the piece through to a finished piece to take home. I was slightly slower than the group, but Sammy made sure I had everything I needed to finish at home, so I didn’t feel rushed to keep up with the group at all. We will be back, for sure!

The concept of kintsugi is really meaningful and the creative practice during the workshop was mindful and relaxing. Sammy was a really warm and engaging teacher. She explained all the steps really clearly, and was on hand to help at all times. Funny too The studio where the workshop was held was rustic and quirky and perfect for the activity. Barista drinks available at additional cost but well worth it. I enjoyed chatting to the other workshop participants. I’d definitely do another workshop there. Thank you!
