Aspiring blacksmith Luke Magee was thrilled with his blacksmithing experience at the Athelstane Forge in Edinburgh. Here's his five-star review:

Hip hop head Raymond was pretty taken with his Paint and Sip Class from DTWN Events in London - here's his strong shoutout in his five-star review:
"I would highly recommend this event (especially to my hip hop / R&B lovers). From the minute you arrive the DJ sets the vibes. Everyone around us was having a good time and to be able to do something different outside of "brunch" was massive appeal. The artist who showed us how to paint was extremely talented and a great teacher even managing to make me forget I wasn't an artist myself. Oh and you get to take your "masterpiece" home with you."

For the ultimate in artisanal experiences for him, a bookbinding workshop combines a host of different traditional skills, and will give him a handmade place to pen his own heartfelt lyrics. Keen crafter Sam left a wonderful review on their bookbinding workshop in London with Tea and Crafting - here's an excerpt from their detailed write-up:
"I didn’t imagine it was possible to make a case bound notebook in one short class before I did this course, but that’s exactly what we did. Everyone came away with a beautiful, unique notebook of their own making which looked as good as any from a shop, if not better! [...] I’d absolutely recommend this course to anyone who enjoys making things, appreciates beautiful books/stationery or gets a sense of accomplishment hand crafting something personal, unique and special."
