"Great course. Good instructor. Brave man to hold the piece while I hammered"

Kayleigh reviewed: Bridal hair vine workshop

"A wonderful afternoon full of coffee, cake, crafting and laughter. The group is small enough so that everyone gets the help they need to craft their own piece of jewellery and Pat is an amazing teacher. The range of beads available is fantastic with every shape, colour and size of bead possible! I would definitely be up for joining this course again!"

Tom Heller reviewed: Stained glass weekly classes in Sheffield (South Yorkshire)

"Martin is a superstar as a teacher. He has taught us all the basic skills and then only intervenes when there's a technical problem that we can't sort out for ourselves. There's a lot to learn and he's the person to guide you through. Highly recommended."

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"Thank you for the review."

Edna reviewed: Make a silver ring or bangle

"I have been coming to Lucy for some time now as there is always something new to learn. This time it was stone setting using setters cement. I learned the hard way that it’s not an easy task as the stone’s are small and you don’t get all around vision with the cement . Another technique learned and a few more to go I reckon which is a good excuse to get Lucy’s invaluable advice. "

Exclusive Jewellery responded:

"Thanks you very much Edna for your considered review. You did well with a very difficult technique. Lots more techniques ahead of you so hope to see you again in the New Year. Best wishes for a creative Christmas from Lucy."

Robert Posselt reviewed: Master of Sourdough Special Offer Bundle 2 extraordinary events on Zoom

"Having been given a voucher for CraftCourses I decided on a 'Making your own Sourdough' course, and am certainly pleased I made the right choice! A pleasure to have met Sharon my tutor through the airwaves on Zoom. I really enjoyed the journey building the all important starter from scratch, and nursing it to maturity for the practical, resulting in eventually baking a couple of loaves of real proper sourdough bread. Sharons close attention, and daily instructions together with her infectious enthusiasm and sharing her experience over the weeks was very much appreciated. She is an encyclopedia of information which she willingly shared at every stage! I cannot thank her enough! At the end of the course I had made 2 delicious loaves which I had to resist tasting as they came out the oven until the following morning, and was not disappointed. Absolutely delicious! For anyone wanting to learn how to make Sourdough bread, look no further. You will learn from an expert who is passionate about her craft. Great value for money. Highly recommended!"

Learn Sourdough responded:

"Thank you sincerely Robert for your wonderful 5 star review. It was a pleasure meeting you on Zoom and teaching you. It was a delight to witness you evolving from an absolute beginner, without any prior knowledge of sourdough, to baking 2 truly magnificent loaves of real sourdough bread. I'm thrilled that you will be keeping up the momentum of baking your own sourdough bread. You'll be very popular with family and friends. Thank you once again for choosing Learn Sourdough. Your review will surely inspire others. "

Matt reviewed: Bladesmithing experience day

"Amazing experience, and I got to walk away with a one of a kind knife. It was one of the best presents I have ever had!!!"

White Tiger Knives responded:

"Hi Matt Thank you very much for your review and I am really happy that you enjoyed your bladesmithing day so much. It was damn cold outside, but once that forge was going things really did heat up and moved forward at some pace. I think you should be very proud of the knife that you created as it did turn out beautifully and let's not forget that, it will cut. Kind regards Steve"

KS reviewed: A complete introduction to wet felting

"What a day great day I had, well above and beyond a 5 star rating! It was a real feast of inspiration, creativity and new discoveries of fascinating interaction of colours and textures. Olga is a thorough, patient and knowledgeable tutor. As an icing on the cake, she & Mike are wonderful hosts who made me feel much welcomed. I took home a beautiful piece of my very own felt that I will keep and cherish (I wish I could show it here!) and good memories."
