"I have already done a few courses with this lady and was so pleased when my partner bought this kit for me for Christmas. I totally love it. I am keen on anything gothic so this was right up my street. The instructions are easy to follow and it came out so much better than I thought I could make it. It looks totally awesome in my flat and I can't wait until we're allowed to go again in person. Highly recommended."

Jane Winkley reviewed: Felted Pictures Moonlit Night - Full kit, instructions and LIVE online tuition.

"A gift for my birthday, and what a fabulous experience it was. Melanie sent through a super kit full or beautiful wool for the session and all the bits you would need. A clear booklet with pictures to keep and help to remind you of the step by step process. Melanie was friendly, encouraging and answered the questions I had. The end results was quite special and I really cant wait to try this again on my own. A super course that has been well thought out and is very easy to follow. The three hours went so quickly, but not feeling rushed at all. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone interested in giving something new a go. Thank you Melanie."

Crafts in the Valley responded:

"Thank you for your great review. It was a lovely spending the afternoon online with you, being creative and chatting! Best wishes, Melanie x"

Jane Bailey reviewed: The complete beginner's resin kit (Code:255)

"Have enjoyed making fabulous resin Lilley flowers. Instructions were good, but some of the pictures representing shapes of wire flowers were quite feint when printed out. Just finishing my first bunch."

Inion responded:

"Thank you for reviewing our product Jane. We have improved our pictures with the later instructions, and we are in the process of updating all our instructions - but it is a slow process as we are also adding new kits all the time. The lily flowers are not the easiest to make - so well done for making them. We hope you continue to enjoy making resin flowers."

Jane Whiteman-Turl reviewed: Mosaic kit bee precut shapes suitable for beginners

"The kit was really good and the instructions were extremely clear and I think really good value for money. For a first time mosaic-er I found it a breeze and the result was great too. Fab for beginners and simple enough for children (8+?) too - they would need a level of co ordination though. I would recommend it. Perhaps you could consider a staged approach - this as level 1 and then perhaps a level 2 and even perhaps 3 and that may get us ready for in person complicated projects.... just a thought. I really enjoyed it. Thanks"

Moon Hare Studio responded:

"Thanks for your feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed making the bee. I really appreciate it and I like the idea of grading the kits for difficulty, I shall certainly consider it. Best wishes Adela"
