Sue Gray reviewed: Pole lathe course - Make a Mallet

"I bought this course as a Christmas present for my difficult to buy for husband! He thoroughly enjoyed his day and is extremely proud of the mallet he made. He said the he said he would be more than happy to have a go at another course and I think I might join him. "

Charlotte reviewed: Willow handbag / shoulder bag

"I originally booked myself and my husband onto this course as part of his Christmas present. We are both professional creatives, but willow weaving is something niether of us had done before. We both thoroughly enjoyed the experience! Rachel was incredibly welcoming, patient and knowledgeable. Keeping a close eye on everyone in the class and offering assistance when things inevitably got muddled. The day was nicely paced, and it was great to have some choice over the type of weave you could do so that everyone's baskets were truly unique. We will definitely be looking to go back and have a go at something more ambitious in the future. "
