Emma C reviewed: An introduction to Mosaic, make a bird or dragonfly in Ampthill, Beds.

"I highly recommend taking a day class in mosaics with Emily if you are looking for a relaxing but rewarding day learning a new skill. Emily was a very warm, welcoming host who made the day of learning good fun and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Emily was brilliant at helping everyone in the group in spite of us working at different paces. Really nice, small group environment and I have to say that the home made refreshments were delicious! "

Stories In Glass responded:

"Oh thank you Emma....what a lovely review! It was a real pleasure to meet you and share my love of mosaic with you at this workshop. I am so glad you found the day rewarding and that our home-made lunch and cakes were much appreciated. It would be lovely to see you again at 'Stories in Glass'. Enjoy your beautiful mosaic project. Best wishes. Emily"

"This being my second course with Emily, the day was once again so enjoyable. Emily is patient, encouraging and warmly hospitable. Whilst I struggled at times with the time element to finish my project, Emily kept me going with advice and practical help so I didn't get disheartened. Her refreshments are so tasty and healthy and as she sits and chats with us, the whole atmosphere is friendly and fun! A thoroughly satisfying day and now I look forward to my butterfly brightening up a blank wall. Thank you again Emily."

Stories In Glass responded:

"Thank you so much for that very kind review Phoebe. It was an absolute pleasure to have you here at my 'Winged things' workshop once again. I am delighted that you enjoyed the workshop and were pleased with the results of your day's work creating your beautiful butterfly and also that you found our lunch and refreshments tasty. If you get the chance to send me a photo of your finished project decorating that blank wall I would love to see it. Sending very best wishes. Emily"
