Jackie reviewed: Wonderful Willow Obelisk

"Great session with results. Very friendly and small group means plenty of support when needed. "

Ann & Ian reviewed: Willow Trug Basket Workshop

"My husband and I spent a very enjoyable day making our trugs. With Suz’s clear explanations at each step of the process…… plus patiently helping us to get back on track when needed … we came away with two very usable and presentable baskets … just as Suz had said at the start of the day. Suz is obviously very passionate and knowledgeable about her craft and we would not hesitate to recommend this course."

Karen Richardson reviewed: Round Shopper Willow Basket

"I had a great time at this course - I had never woven a basket before and thanks to the excellent tuition from Suz my basket looks pretty good. Suz helped everyone to complete a basket in the day class. The facilities were good (the hall was warm and had good light) and I had everything I needed."

"Lovely day in the woods making our round willow baskets. As a complete novice I was reassured by Suz’s calm and knowledgeable approach, giving us clear step by step instructions. I would recommend this course to everyone. Thank you Suz for a wonderful day. "

Libby reviewed: Spoon carving in the woods

"Me and my partner had a fantastic time on the spoon carving course! The lovely Suz was a great teacher and we were really happy with what me made. It was a lovely spot in the woods with tea and coffee made over the wood fire. Highly recommend :) "

Anthea reviewed: Spoon carving in the woods

"This was a really relaxing course to do with friends. We loved the mindfulness element. Suz was a great teacher. My only thought is we could have done with an extra 30 mins to allow for a short lunch break and to make maximum use of the tools provided to complete the spoon on site. Or maybe we were just slow workers ! The sanding is easy to do at home. "

"Wow! What a wonderful morning in a beautiful, tranquil surrounding in the woods. I booked this course for a friend's special birthday treat, and was not disappointed. The lovely weather helped, being outdoors. Suz was a very patient, and clear instructor. Always ready to help when you needed it. Everyone produced a great willow Obelisk and being a smaller group made for a friendlier atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend this course."
