• 5/5 from Maria de Feo-Walsh, attended Oct 2024: I have a new found respect for découpage. What an experience! I wanted to learn a new skill so that I could update a chair that I love. I am so pleased with the end result. I can't stop looking at the detail. I will never look at napkins in the same way again. I was even given some paint to finish off the legs. Gabriela is so lovely and her studio is amazing, a real delight. And, she is so helpful but allows you to explore to. It was a privilege to see a wide variety of her work too. A very talented lady! The space helped me to sit and focus on the task in hand. I met a lovely lady on the day, who even gave me a lift home. The studio is around the corner from the bus stop. I would highly recommend this wonderful experience.

• 5/5 from Cindy Ledgerwood, attended Aug 2023: Furniture Decoupage Day - Superb! I learned a huge amount and came away with a table I'm really pleased with. Lovely learning environment. Gabriella spent time individually with everyone and was incredibly generous with her knowledge.
• 4/5 from Pauline Macmillan, attended Feb 2023: I had a very productive class and learnt lots tricks and techniques. Gabriela gave good instructions, advice and suggestions, particularly on how to avoid problems. I am very keen to sign up for another class or 3.
• 4/5 from Linda Mulcahy, attended Feb 2023: It was a good course. It would have been great to have more materials to choose from. Also there were 2:5 students down by collage rather than decoupage which was distracting. I would have preferred the teacher to take control of the class a little more.
• 5/5 from Rose Braithwaite, attended Apr 2022: Another great workshop with Gabriela. I took a chair in and she showed me a number of techniques for decorating it. She is so creative and skilful and a great teacher. Loved my day in her bright studio!
• 5/5 from Roberta Piras, attended Jan 2022: Just return home from this course which far exceed my expectations. Gabriela was knowledge and her work is amazing, she is such a great teacher, she took the extra time so that I could complete my piece of furniture only small bits to do at home but she gave me the paper napkin to take home to complete. She thought me different techniques and I was really inspired to improve just by looking at her work dotted everywhere in the studio. Honesty 10/10 is my score and now looking forward to put into practice what I've learnt and to go back to do the glass decoupage! Thank you Gabriela
• 5/5 from Emma, attended Sep 2021: Gabriella was very inspiring with her work which she had all around the studio. She taught the class very well with a calm and ease about her, she paid attention to the individual needs of each of us, and was encouraging but also allowed us to find our own designs based on our own likes/dislikes. She was so very friendly and it was overall an incredibly enjoyable day! Highly recommend! Great aftercare too with advice on where to pick up some good tools and equipment for decoupage! I'm now addicted!
• 5/5 from Yasmin Somji, attended Sep 2021: Gabrielle is brilliant. Had one of my most enjoyable and happy days working on my decoupage project with her. Gabriella also shares all her resources very generously.
• 5/5 from Pamela Levy, attended Sep 2021: What was the teacher like? Gabriela was lovely. Very knowledgeable, friendly and hospitable. We had a great day with her. Gabriela even allowed us to come another day as my friend had to isolate on our original date. How was the venue? Venue was great. Gabriela had lots of wonderful items to look at for inspiration. She also sold and displayed much of her works which are beautiful If materials were provided, did you like them? Yes Gabriela also gave me and my friend items to take home to finish our projects Was the class good value for money? Yes. There was only two of us. Gabriela helped us as much as we needed but allowed us to be creative. What did you do / learn? We both decoupaged tables. We learnt 3 different techniques a made beautiful table tops and legs. We had a wonderful day as part of my 50rh birthday celebration. Thank you so much. I can't recommend Gabriela and her class enough.
• 5/5 from Deirdre O'Neill, attended Jan 2020: Had the BEST DAY! I decoupaged a little chest of drawers. Gabriella was extremely attentive and I have to say I'm slightly obsessed with dcoupage now! Will definitely be back to learn more. 100% recommend.
