Wanda reviewed: Bread Basket Workshop

"Fabulous! I can’t wait to go on another's one! Our tutor Daisy was lovely. Full of patience , positivity and very knowledgable. We attended the one in Coalport village hall, Telford. Easy to find and great venue. A super light lunch was included and unlimited drinks. I did it with a friend but you could easily attend on your own- it was very friendly. It’s great as a stress buster. "

Vine Willow Wood responded:

"Thanks for your kind words Wanda. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Hope to see you again for another workshop in the future. "

Sophia reviewed: Foraging basket

"Absolutely fantastic! I can't thank Daisy enough for making it a fun day where we created a basket to take home and cherish. The four of us created a lovely basket suitable for our own needs, re enactment, foraging, shopping etc. "

"Hi Sophia, thanks so much for your lovely review. I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was great to meet you and your family, and I hope to see you again soon!"
