The Crafty potter reviews

keeley reviewed: Full day pottery experience, Heskin Chorley

"Absolutely wonderful day, Sharon and the other ladies were lovely, I bought the day pottery experience for myself, mum and sister to do. It was our first time using clay and the potters wheel and doing anything like it, but Sharon was great in showing us what to do and gave us plenty of time on each activity so we didn't feel rushed. We made three items, (two on the wheel and one by hand) and then glazed a cup. Its a fabulous studio set within Heskin shopping village, which had lots of other little shops worth a visit too! We all are looking forward to returning to glaze the pots we made! Thank you so much xx "

The Crafty potter responded:

"Thanks for your awesome review, we really appreciate it. It was lovely having you all join us in the studio- you did fab! See you soon Sharon x"

Heather Carberry reviewed: 1hr Potter's Wheel Heskin, Chorley

"What a brilliant time we had! Three complete beginners were welcomed by Sharon and tutored by Hannah. It’s much harder than it looks on the Telly but with instructions we all managed to produce a pot. It’s very relaxing and mindful concentrating on trying to form the clay but also great fun. We had a lot of laughs and are going to come back for another go! I thoroughly recommend this course, we had a grand day out browsing the stalls and a lovely lunch. You’ll get a very warm welcome in a lovely friendly atmosphere and try something new. 🤗👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻"

The Crafty potter responded:

"Thank you Heather for your fab review, you all did awesome xx"

Mike reviewed: Half Day Potters Wheel & Clay Hand Building, Heskin Chorley

"What a great experience. Sharon was so helpful and supportive. My first pot was reasonable but the second, without supervision, was a disaster!! I am proud of my fish as long as the tail and fins don’t drop off in the firing. I will definitely go back for the glazing, if my ‘creations’ survive. Thanks for a brilliant experience. Took me back to my school days pottery 🤣. "

The Crafty potter responded:

"Hi Mike, you did awesome- its not easy the wheel, but you did it. Your fish is fabulous and is drying nicely. Thank you for your lovely review. See you in a few weeks."

Diana reviewed: Clay modelling Christmas Figures

"Fabulous course with Sharon. We went using vouchers given for Christmas and enjoyed every minute. The set is a great intro to various skills and the go on the wheel was a great laugh. Can't wait to go back and collect our creations once they're fired. Such great value to come away with so much at the end too. There is plenty to do at the shopping village as well, so combining the course with lunch made it a real day out. We will absolutely look at another visit or course soon"

"Thank you for your lovely review Diana, you both did an awesome job, cant wait to see them all glazed up."

I look forward to returning once these have been fired to paint the bowl and plant holder"

Lynne and Paul reviewed: 1hr Potter's Wheel Heskin, Chorley

"Bought for my husband as a birthday present but I wasn’t going to miss out on all the fun. We tried using the potter’s wheel and it was such great fun, you absolutely must give it a try. It certainly gives us new respect for the talented people on the Pottery Throw-down programme; which is what inspired us to book the hour’s session. Can’t wait to go back to glaze our dishes. Special thanks to our teacher, Hannah, who was so charming and enthusiastic."

The Crafty potter responded:

"We cant wait for you to come back & glaze them- was lovely having you in the studio. Thank you for your lovely review. See you soon Sharon"
