Mark Bell reviewed: 5 Week Intermediate/Advanced Jewellery Making Class at Jewellery Workshop Leeds

"This course was fantastic. Continuing on fluently from the beginners course, Bernard coaches you through more advanced techniques with his usual patient and affable manner. Again the course is very hands on with most of your time spent over a huge vice, soldering station or jewellers bench. Highly recommended to those who want to go one step further along the road of jewellery making. Awesome!"

Britt reviewed: Jane's Nice & Easy Crochet Workshops

"I love Jane's crochet classes. They are small and intimate. Jane gives a lot of individual attention and help on whatever project you are working on. She also has a lot of patterns to start you off if you don't have anything."

Dan Smith reviewed: 5 Week Intermediate/Advanced Jewellery Making Class at Jewellery Workshop Leeds

"In this course things step up a gear and you get into some more advanced techniques which Bernard guides you through with his wealth of experience and gentle but efficient manner. By the end of this course I was making jewellery that I would happily good money for. With the added bonus of designing it myself so it was exactly what I wanted."

Dan Smith reviewed: 6 wk Mixed Level Jewellery Making at Jewellery Workshop Leeds

"Bernard and Jane are really nice - helpful and very knowledgable with a wealth of experience which they are willing to share. The workshop is well equipped and designed so you always have space to work regardless of class size. The atmosphere of the classes is relaxed, creative and supportive but with Bernard and Jane leading it it wouldn't be anything else. The cost of this course is a total bargain, if you are thinking of doing this, just stop thinking now and get it done or you'll regret it."

Dave Curno reviewed: Green Wood Creative Seating - 6 Day Course in South Devon

"What a great course, so much learnt about green woodworking and the techniques needed to build a wide variety of furniture. At the start of the week the idea of producing a piece of furniture can seem daunting but Peter encourages and guides you in the right direction in his own unassuming manner. The tools and instruction are top quality and by the end of the six days you will have created a unique seat of your very own. Anyone can do this course and will find it relaxing, absorbing and totally satisfying. Very highly recommended."

Paul Bloxham reviewed: Wood turning courses in the Midlands

"My wife bought me a day with Mark as a present. I bought a lathe six months ago but having last operated one at school 40+ years ago I had neither the confidence or the knowledge with which to use it! Have to say I cannot believe how much Mark taught me in a day. In a structured way he covered all areas in the right level of detail for me and in a style that was easy to relate to. Mark's workshop is well equipped and importantly there was plenty of hands on use of the lathe as well as tool sharpening and finishing. Throughout the the day there was a lot's of practical and money saving tips which are so important to the beginner. Overall I had a great day and went away having learnt far more than I expected to. Also having gained in confidence and with some of Mark's enthusiasm having rubbed off. Would definitely recommend Mark and hope to be back for more!"

Tracy Needham reviewed: Anticlastic raising and basic foldforming. Flowers and leaves, jewellery course Leeds, West Yorkshire

"I thoroughly enjoyed this course. I have no previous experience of jewellery making but had always wanted to give it a try. Teresa taught us the process from start to finish, one step at a time and was always on hand to offer the support needed and to ask questions. A natural teacher and very knowledgeable when it comes to the subject. I got to make and bring home 3 pieces of jewellery. I would definitely recommend this workshop."

Peter Taylor reviewed: Whittling course

"Recently attended this course on the 24th may. A great day and a lot of fun. It was my first experience in whittling and I will be sure to be continuing it as a cherished hobby. Martin was great at explaining everything and because of the small group I felt comfortable enough to ask him to repeat information I didn't fully understand. I am a vegan so martin was great to accommodate me by providing a delicious home made soup and bread. I would Highly recommend this course to anyone looking to gain all the knowledge you need to go off and confidently start whittling yourself."
