Naomi Waghorn reviewed: Lampshade Making Private Event- Naomi

"Fantastic course. I organised a personal group of six to make lampshades. We all now have a wonderful shade each and had a fun time in the process. Would totally recommend Karen and the Craft Barn. She made the execution clear and concise and def a craft to repeat. Many thanks. "

Lechlade Craft Barn responded:

"Hi Naomi It was lovely to meet you all and thank you for arranging your crafty get-together. All of the finished lampshades looked amazing and I'm so pleased to hear you have plans to make more at home. Karen"

"Last Saturday I completed the Coptic Bookbinding course at Lechlade Craft Barn. It was a wonderful day and I now have my own handmade notebook. I will be coming back to Lechlade Craft Barn very soon to revise my sewing skills and to do some of the many other courses on offer. I highly recommend this course to anyone thinking about it. I now have a new hobby to practice at home."

SJM reviewed: Silver Rings Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire Border

"A great day out doing something different with a very knowledgeable and approachable tutor. I left feeling very proud of my achievements and with 3 very wearable silver rings. The barn is a lovely light area suited to making, however worth mentioning for those who have accessibility issues access is up some very steep steps!"

Lechlade Craft Barn responded:

"Thank you for your great review! I'm so glad you had a lovely day and very proud you should be. Fiona is a very talented lady and a fabulous tutor. I thoroughly enjoyed joining in the workshop myself and haven't taken them off yet! Yes, the external stone steps are mentioned on all workshop descriptions just in case anyone has mobility issues. I look forward to seeing you at another workshop in the future. many thanks Karen "

Lechlade Craft Barn responded:

"Hi Dawn I'm so pleased you enjoyed your day. Your polar bear was amazing! I hope you feel inspired to make more at home or join us again for another workshop to try Leaded Stained Glass or a new workshop coming to learn decorative finishes (details to come). Karen"

Emma reviewed: Copper Foil Stained Glass Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire Border

"I bought this course as a gift for my mother, and she absolutely loved it. She bought some stained glass she had made home and it was beautiful. This was her first time and although she didn’t feel she was very good, it turned out brilliantly. 10/10 recommend :)"

Lechlade Craft Barn responded:

"Hi Emma I'm so pleased Yvonne enjoyed her gift and had a wonderful day. To see the finished pieces at the end of each workshop is amazing! I will be publishing pictures on our Facebook and Instagram sites today so you can see them all. Hopefully, Yvonne will join us again sometime. Karen"

Ria reviewed: Lampshade Making Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire Border

"This workshop was better than I expected! I thought we'd all be making a drum shaped lampshade, but was happy to find out we were able to choose the shape, size and whether it was for a table lamp or the ceiling. The group of ladies were lovely and as there were only six of us, it meant that we were able to get the individual help we needed as we progressed through the stages of making our lampshade. Karen is patient and took care not to rush us if we were not finished bang on time. I'll definitely be coming back for more workshops in the future. Tea and coffee was provided and even a mince pie. Thanks Karen, looking forward to the next workshop! ☺️"

Lechlade Craft Barn responded:

"Hi Ria It was lovely to meet you both at the workshop last week and I'm so pleased you enjoyed it. I love to teach lampshade making, it's a great workshop for you to make something for your home without having to sew. I look forward to seeing you again. Many thanks Karen "
